Note: Kelsey sees clients virtually throughout Colorado and in-person in both Denver and Boulder.

I help high-functioning, thoughtful people heal anxiety, attachment wounds, and painful relationship patterns through relational, trauma-informed therapy — including EMDR and SSP — and I am currently completing IFS Level 1.

Many of my clients are thoughtful, capable people who are tired of repeating the same relational patterns — whether in their families, parenting, or partnerships. You may be the one others rely on, yet inside you feel anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that no amount of insight seems to change. I work with women and couples who are ready to understand the roots of their pain, heal trauma and attachment wounds, and build more secure, connected lives. I help people understand where those patterns come from and develop healthier ways of relating to themselves and the people they love.

Much of my work sits at the intersection of identity, relationships, and the desire for personal fulfillment — helping people understand how their past shapes the present so they can build something more intentional moving forward. I also have a particular interest in helping adults navigate complicated relationships with parents, including boundaries, distance, and estrangement.

My approach is relational, trauma-informed, and depth-oriented. I integrate EMDR and SSP, and I draw from attachment-based and IFS-informed work to help clients move beyond survival strategies and into lasting change. Whether you are navigating anxiety, perfectionism, relationship struggles, life transitions, or the lingering impact of trauma, therapy can become a place to feel more grounded, clear, and fully yourself.

My Approach

My style of therapy blends compassion with honest reflection. Clients often appreciate that I am both supportive and willing to gently challenge patterns that keep them stuck. I aim to create a space that feels compassionate, attuned, and deeply respectful of your story.

In our work together we may explore attachment patterns and family-of-origin dynamics, nervous system regulation and trauma processing, EMDR and parts-based approaches, Enneagram insights for self-understanding, and practical tools for communication and emotional regulation. Therapy with me is collaborative, curious, and growth-oriented.

You Might Be Here Because…

  • You feel like you’ve outgrown parts of your life and are searching for who you want to become next.
  • You feel like you should know yourself better than you do, and you’ve tried everything but are still asking “Who am I?” and “What do I want?”
  • You’re realizing the way you were raised is still shaping your relationships and sense of self.
  • You’ve become a parent and suddenly old family patterns are showing up in ways you didn’t expect.
  • You and your partner keep having the same arguments and can’t seem to break the cycle.
  • You’re trying to parent differently than you were parented.
  • You’re navigating complicated boundaries or distance with family members.

What It’s Like to Work With Me

Our work together will be warm, open, and real. Clients often tell me they appreciate that they’re meeting a real person in the room, not being put under a microscope. I bring a lot of curiosity and compassion into our sessions, and I’m also not afraid to point out patterns that are hard to see when you’re in the middle of them.

Sessions tend to feel conversational and collaborative — we might follow a thread all the way down to the roots one week, and the next week focus on concrete tools you can use in the middle of a hard conversation. People often say it feels like a place where they can exhale, get honest, and leave with a clearer sense of what to do next.
