Find a licensed psychologist in Bellingham, WA

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. 

I am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 12 years of experience supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. My background in art therapy allows me to approach healing creatively and holistically, while also providing traditional talk therapy. I work with clients who are ready to explore change—whether that means making active shifts, gaining clarity about what they want, or simply understanding what therapy can offer.

I earned my master's in professional studies in art therapy from The School of Visual Arts. My approach is blended and adaptable, drawing from cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness-based practices, somatic techniques, and person-centered care to meet each client’s evolving needs.

Taking steps toward better mental health can feel overwhelming, but you do not have to do it alone. I provide a judgment-free space with active, empathetic listening, thoughtful questions, and practical tools to help you build on your strengths and move forward with clarity and confidence.
