My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and grounded in genuine connection—with a touch of humor along the way. I support clients through life’s challenges, including anxiety, depression, unresolved trauma, relational struggles, and major transitions. Together, we’ll explore the patterns that support your well-being and those that may be holding you back, always with a focus on your unique values, needs, and goals. Drawing from evidence-based therapies, I tailor our work to help you feel empowered, deepen self-understanding, and move toward meaningful change. Taking this step toward healing is courageous, and I’m here to walk alongside you as you create the life you want.

Dr. Kelsi Clayson Practice Description
I strive to create a supportive space for individuals and couples navigating life’s challenges, with a focus on helping you move past fear, self-doubt, and the patterns that may be keeping you stuck. My approach is both evidence-based and individualized—ensuring that our work together is effective and connected to the need and goals that are specific and meaningful to you. I specialize in guiding clients through unresolved trauma and PTSD, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. I also have extensive training in women’s mental health and well-being, supporting individuals who struggle with self-criticism, perfectionism, insecurity, and shame. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by fears of judgment, difficulty setting boundaries, or communication challenges in relationships. Whether you’re looking to build confidence, develop self-compassion, strengthen your ability to advocate for yourself, or improve how you connect with others, I would be honored to help. Therapy is an opportunity to break free from limiting patterns and step into a life that feels more authentic, empowered, and fulfilling. Together, we’ll create space for healing, growth, and the changes that matter most to you.
