Every person deserves to feel valued and celebrated.
Kelsey Albert
I found my way to private practice through many life experiences and circumstances, which includes my own struggles and healing journey. As a child, I survived trauma, loss, and abandonment by my father, which naturally created false beliefs about myself and patterns to back them up. In early adulthood, I married young and found myself in an entangled trap of self-abandonment, isolation, and toxic relationships. Screaming for a change and a need to escape the chaos robbing me of life, I decided to divorce and walked a new pathway of single parenthood and self-discovery. One step at a time, while holding on to hope and curiosity, I confronted my past and my programming. I came to question everything I had ever known. Exploration and healing became my deepest friend, and listening with my heart became my highest priority. I learned we heal in and through healthy relationships. I learned connection with self and connection with others lights our way home. I believe we all have the capacity to heal and grow. Sometimes, we feel alone, but I am here to remind you, loved ones are always near, whether we can see them or not.
Passion & playfulness
I am a person of passion, depth, and playfulness. I enjoy cooking, dancing, being in nature, snuggling with my hairless cats, and spending time with my beloved family and friends. I grew up in a large blended family in Arvada, Colorado and was an avid competitive gymnast for fifteen years. After high school, I went to nursing school where I found a passion for maternal child health and family systems. After graduation in 2011, I worked as a labor and delivery nurse for one year, then moved to public health for four years where I was a nurse in a program called the Nurse-Family Partnership, which supports first-time mothers and their families as they enter their first two years of parenthood. I became well versed in parent-child relationships, interactions, bonding, and infant mental health. I also learned several counseling techniques which I loved, and in 2018 this propelled my desire to go back to grad school to study expressive arts therapy and counseling psychology. I began my career in psychotherapy with a year-long internship at The Mariposa Center in Denver, Colorado where I worked with children and families on issues such as trauma, anxiety, grief/loss, adoption, attachment concerns, body awareness, regulation, impulse control, and building healthy relationships.
My promise
I received my master’s degree in Expressive Arts Therapy and Counseling Psychology from California Institute of Integral Studies, and I hold a bachelor’s degree in the Science of Nursing from Regis University. With eleven years of experience in family systems and mental health, I now provide contract work to Denver schools conducting social emotional groups for students and reflective consultation groups to teachers. I also have my private practice where I provide therapy services to children, teens, adults and families. I deeply love the work I do and I feel my journey has assisted me to step into this role with humility, wisdom, and purpose. Thank you for entrusting me with your stories, your inner world, and your time. I enjoy getting to know each and every one of you while supporting you along your own path. I believe every person deserves to feel valued and celebrated for their uniqueness. I am devoted to supporting clients with openness, honesty, and safety. In session with me, you can expect a warm, authentic, and playful presence, inviting you to relax into self-expression and self-discovery.
I am honored to hear your stories, and be a witness to your process. I am devoted to providing a place for you to deeply be yourself. I feel true authenticity is the heart of growth, giving us power to transform negative patterns and build deeper connections.
