Kelsey holds a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Capella University and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of South Florida. Before stepping into the therapy room, she built a meaningful foundation in child advocacy and family support — serving as a Guardian ad Litem for Florida’s Sixth Judicial Circuit, where she represented the best interests of children in dependency court, and as a Targeted Case Manager, helping families access community resources and navigate mental health and behavioral challenges.

Today, Kelsey specializes in working with children and families navigating high-conflict
divorce and other family transitions. She believes children thrive most when therapy is a true collaboration, one that involves not just the child, but the adults who love them. Her integrative approach weaves together individual sessions where children can safely process their inner world, hands-on family sessions to strengthen communication and connection, and parent sessions focused on building practical strategies and supporting progress at home. Kelsey utilizes Gottman Emotion Coaching techniques, therapeutic play, and evidence-based interventions to help families create lasting, meaningful change together.

Kelsey works with children, adolescents, and families with: 

• Anxiety
• Depression
• Self-Harm
• Eating Disorders
• Grief & Loss
• Self-Esteem & Confidence
• Relationship & Family Dynamics
• Autism Spectrum Disorder
• Christian Counseling

Her primary therapeutic approaches include: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) · Internal Family Systems (IFS) · Therapeutic Play · Strengths-Based Approaches

Kelsey tailors every treatment plan to each client’s unique needs and developmental stage because no two children, and no two families, are exactly alike.

Outside the office, Kelsey loves spending time with family and friends, going to the beach, traveling, reading, and gardening. She is deeply passionate about helping young people build confidence, develop emotional awareness, and find coping strategies that feel genuinely their own. Above all, she believes therapy should be a place where every child feels accepted, understood, and empowered to grow.
