Kelsey Anderson, LPC, LMFT
Licensed professional Counselor & Licensed Marriage & Family therapist
Are you feeling frustrated with a family member, significant other, or spouse? Do you want to improve your relationship with someone important to you? Are you feeling disconnected from people in your family?
If any of these answers are yes, consider giving couples therapy or family therapy a try. With several years of practice in Functional Family Therapy, I would love to help you unravel whatever issues you are having, big or small. I have worked alongside couples and families since 2018 to help them better communicate and manage conflict in a healthier way. As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I have a passion for helping families reconnect and find solace. Let me help you understand how to do that in a way that works best for you and your family.
Is your child acting out? Do you feel like you’re a bad parent?
It can be difficult to navigate your child’s emotions in a way that both of you feel heard. My favorite model to work with is Trust-Based Relational Interventions (TBRI). Behavior makes sense given the context. Let me help you understand where this behavior is coming from and offer solutions to help promote change.
Do you feel overwhelmed, overstimulated, or overpowered by the weight of your responsibilities? Do you often find yourself feeling stuck in the bed, or having thoughts about yourself that just aren’t true?
What’s not fun is feeling like everything is spiraling out of your control. It’s hard to remember in these moments that we actually do have control of our own thoughts and feelings. Sometimes, our thought processes don’t exactly help us feel better when feeling anxious. With experience in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and training in neuropsychotherapy, I can help you work toward retraining your brain to help tough situations feel a little better.
No matter what challenges you find yourself facing, I am ready to help! Reach out today and let’s start the journey.

about me
I am both a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Professional Counselor. I grew up in Central Michigan and ended up moving several times during my childhood between a small town in Michigan and the suburbs of Houston, Texas. As a child I enjoyed being the mediator in conflicts and that passion has followed me to be where I am today.
I am an avid animal lover and before I found my passion as a counselor, I was a dog groomer! In my free time, I love to spend time at home on our small farm tending to our chickens and garden. I enjoy being creative and building things, playing sports, traveling and exploring the great outdoors. I love spending time with my family, friends and my church family. As a child I was taught and encouraged that I could do anything if I set my mind to it. My motto today is “everything is figureoutable”.
