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 7 years of experience supporting teens, adults, parents, and families. I specialize in helping clients navigate academic stress, peer pressure, anxiety, self-harm, and suicidal ideation. I take a holistic approach to care, recognizing the connection between the mind and body and how multiple factors influence a person’s overall well-being.

I earned my master’s in psychology from Seattle University. My clinical approach integrates cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based practices, and person-centered therapy, with influences from existential-phenomenological theory. I tailor treatment to each client’s lived experience and unique needs.

I believe therapy is a collaborative, two-way relationship built on trust and accountability. I provide a nonjudgmental, open space where you can feel heard and supported. If you’re ready to create meaningful change, I invite you to begin this journey with me—we’ll navigate it together.

Mary Lou's dominant practicing theories are those of structural family therapy, which focuses on the ways in which families function and the changes that need to be made in the family structure to help them function more effectively, and solution-focused theory, which looks at the solutions that the client brings to therapy for coping with problems and builds on the client’s successes. She also likes to use some narrative therapy, which is focused on changing the way that you look at your life or problems.

Mary Lou is a trauma survivor and comes from an immigrant family, both of which influence the work that she does on a day-to-day basis. This, along with her clinical experience, allows her to support and understand her clients in unique ways.
