Hello :) my name is Kelsey and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida. I received my Masters Degree from Simmons College in Boston, Massachusetts in 2017. I moved to Florida in 2019, where I then received my LCSW. I work with adults ages 18 and older who struggle with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, personality disorders, trauma, addiction, dual diagnosis and more. I love what I do and I look forward to working with you!

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

During our first session, you can expect to go through the intake documentation that you completed, as this helps me to get to know you better. We will also go over any questions you may have, in order to make you feel as comfortable as possible going into future sessions.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

I use a person-centered and strength-based approach, in order to assist my clients in seeing the best in themselves, while guiding them on their therapeutic journey. I use many different worksheets and tools, and these vary based on each clients needs.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I have several years of experience working with severe mental illness and substance abuse. I work with adults ages 18 and older and I also have a specialization in geriatrics.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I work with adults 18 years and older. I specialize in working with clients who struggle with mood disorders, personality disorders, substance abuse, dual diagnosis, suicidal ideations and self-harm.
