Kelsea Pelletier is a therapist and supervisor and one of her favorite quotes states, "The quality of our life depends on the quality of our relationships" by Ester Perel. Many of her clients are survivors of narcissistic parents, partners and societal values who experience a deep sense of loneliness, anxiety and depression and may find themselves in patterns of people pleasing & resentment. Some of her client's also often feel lost without a sense of approval from others. Kelsea's clients are striving to feel more in touch with their authentic sense of self by coming to a better balance of internal versus external validation.

Welcome to my practice! First and foremost, I should tell you that I value, acknowledge, and respect the important step you are taking by looking for a therapist. Every person has a different way to achieve fulfillment, and we all have in common the challenges that life brings us in the road. Understanding that mental health does not necessarily mean the absence of illness, my goal in psychotherapy is to help you understand how to use your own experiences and psychological resources to be a better version of yourself. My practice is focused on the provision of individual therapy in English and Spanish.

I offer safe and accessible telehealth - virtual counseling sessions. Even positive transitions can be challenging, hard to understand, or embarrassing to discuss. School transitions, career changes, divorce, domestic violence, parenting differences, personal loss, dating issues, or other life transitions can sometimes seem overwhelming. Because of these changes, you may feel angry, confused, sad, conflicted, or alone. I am here for you, to help you develop skills to cope with life’s changes.

The fundamental goal of counseling is to help individuals, who are experiencing personal challenges, resolve them and improve their emotional well-being. My mission is to help people who are struggling to overcome various issues such as addiction, anxiety, depression, anger, fear, and grief. These issues can impact career, health, education, and family life. I believe that compassion and empathy are essential qualities that every counselor should have toward their clients. My practice is built on those essential qualities.

I am Polyamory, Kink, BDSM and Queer friendly and competent. I am secular and won't be pushing religion, though I respect all religions. Í'm a supporting member of the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom, and Polyfriendly.org, as well as the Secular Therapy Project. I celebrate and support non traditional lifestyles. I can help with mood disorders, relationships, addiction, and other issues as well. You can meet me in my office, meet via video therapy from the comfort of your home, or use your phone to video conference with me during your lunch hour.

I primarily serve the LGBTQ, Polyamory, and Kink communities. Competent, affirming, and informed therapy provided in the office or online. I am inclusive, non-judgmental and secular. If you are feeling depressed, anxious, or stressed out, or if your relationship(s) lack intimacy, warmth, or communication, then let's work together to restore joy and balance. I would love to accompany you on your journey back to a vibrant, happy wholeness.

My expertise lies in assisting those with any manner of mood disorder symptoms and identifying challenges created in their lives by those symptoms. I work with clients in a solution focused perspective to identify achievable short, intermediate, and long term goals to create an environment where changes seems possible and attainable. I also work closely with client’s families to help provide them a compassionate and empathetic voice for their concerns, and frame them in a way which is palatable to those on my caseload.

"Marriage with NO problems?" I HEAR YOU LOUD AND CLEAR..."What idiot said that?" YOU would be right. "NO PROBLEMS" means NO: Prior separate upbringing experiences, Prior different religious experiences, Prior different sexual experiences, Prior different values in many different topics, Prior different problem resolution skills, Prior unequal education or occupation ideals, Prior Emotional skills in conflict resolution by one or both. SO, DON'T TELL ME TWO PEOPLE WITH ALTOGETHER DIFFERENT IDEAS, IDEALS, VALUES, AND EXPERIENCES in a broad range of traits CAN WALTZ INTO MARRIAGE WITH "NO PROBLEMS".

Working from a holistic model of treatment, integrating behavioral healthcare with medical care, art, yoga, animals and the natural world is my specialty. The client that is tired of being tired and unfulfilled or tired of being sick and tired and wants a real relationship that goes beyond "tell me how you feel today" is the person who will enjoy working with me. I utilize evidence-based treatment strategies but combine them in dynamic and engaging ways that make it possible for clients to heal body, mind and spirit while learning critical relationship skills with humans and the natural world.
