About
As someone who struggled growing up in this complex world, I've come to learn that it is very important to have a range of support to lean on at any stage in life.
Hi, I'm Kelsey. I currently practice in Washington State, with a focus on youth and young adults. I received an MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and Art Therapy from Antioch University Seattle in 2021, and since have gained various experience working in community mental health, child advocacy, university healthcare, and group practice settings. I received full licensure in 2023, having been witness to great supervision and mentorship. I usually work with clients facing struggles with emotional concerns, identity/body issues, loss/grief, trauma, relationship problems, low self-worth, and big life transitions.
My style is warm, creative, and nonchallenging. My approach might include gentle thought restructuring, building coping skills, identity exploration, self-compassion building, and other tools tailored to you or your child's needs. I use a multicultural and systemic lens, collaborating with caregivers, family, other providers, or school supports as needed.
Making the decision to reach out for support is a sign of strength, so thank you for being here! It has been such an honor to witness people grow and reach resiliency, and we are not built to do it alone. I look forward to connecting with you and becoming witness to your journey toward healing, too.

Yes, there are therapists who help with anger via Anger management therapy. It’s a therapeutic process that an individual goes through to manage their anger and identify its triggers. They’re given clear instructions on how to improve their angry behavior as well as a safe space for opening up about their emotions.
Once an individual’s triggers are identified, anger management therapy focuses on helping the individual process and respond to these emotions in a more positive and productive manner. The anger management therapist will provide coping strategies and ultimately help their client take back control of their anger.
The five keys to mastering anger include identifying triggers, pausing before reacting, calmly expressing emotions, discovering constructive outlets for frustration, and seeking professional assistance if necessary. Acquiring these skills through Anger management therapy empowers individuals to effectively manage and navigate their anger.
The best therapy for anger management often involves cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps individuals identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior related to anger.
Anger management therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Often, Anger management therapy lasts between 4-6 weeks. However, it can last longer, dependent on the individual’s needs.
