I believe people want to be heard, need to be heard. I believe it takes courage to reach out for help. I am very interested in my client's story, as I believe our story helps us process the past.

Hi! My name is Kelsey and I have a private practice in Centerville, OH! I worked as both a clinician and manager at an agency providing community-based services for 5 years and have been working in my own practice since 2020. I love witnessing clients make positive change in their lives every day. I am empathetic, supportive, nonjudgmental, and genuinely care about the clients I work with.

I believe that everyone needs a safe place to talk through events and challenges in life. Using a strengths-based approach, I work with clients to identify goals and develop strategies to achieve those goals. I have significant experience working with children and teens, however, I enjoy working with individuals of all ages, adults and couples.

Wounds, whether they are physical, emotional, mental or spiritual, inflicted in the early stages of life can live on and be present in the daily moment to moment life experience. Children and adults alike can have difficulty moving on and developing optimally in life after experiencing traumatic events. I would like to help those who have experienced intentional or unintentional pain or abuse heal and recover from those memories.

I work with a variety of clients, all having one thing in common: They are unhappy with the direction their life has taken and seek insight so that their lives can change. Whether they are wanting to process a life event and only want to come one or two sessions, or whether they want to make a long-term connection with a counselor, I tailor my therapy to my clients' needs. My approach is interactive, engaging my clients in conversations that help them process past or present events, so that they can find their own path to healing.

Each of us is on our own individual journey. At times, we all need assistance to help us overcome the stumbling blocks that are in our path. These stumbling blocks may be from the distant past, recent past, present, or fear of the future and may be affecting us at school, work, home, in relationships, or all the above.

My strengths are in acceptance of where you are as a client and allowing you to grow and learn in your own unique ways; over 25 years of experience with lots of clients, issues, and situations; my honesty with you; and my high regard for the potential in every person. I work holistically, helping you to identify what you need cognitively, emotionally, physically, and spiritually to help yourself. I like helping people find that there are solutions in their lives that they had not thought or had not seen before.

Understanding the whole person is of utmost importance. I am empowered to help people deal with and find relief for life's hurts. I help find the unique solutions to encourage health, happiness and well-being. I do this through a deep sense of understanding, compassion and personal experience. Over the past twenty years as an educator, pastor, businessman and counselor, I have helped many people in their pursuit of healing and wholeness. These experiences have not only provided me with a greater understanding of people's needs, but they also have helped me develop solid solutions for professional treatment.

My goal is to aid you in building a life you want, even if you haven't figured out quite what that life is yet.

I have many years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults with disabilities, and people from a wide variety of backgrounds. As a parent , I am familiar with the challenges of raising a child who has special needs. I believe that all therapy should be trauma informed, as we all do the best we can with what we know and what has worked for us in the past.
