Kelsi, M.S., LPC, Clinical Director

Hi there! My name is Kelsi, the Clinical Director at The Counseling Corner and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania and Virginia. I have expertise in working with members of the LGBTQIA2S+ community, untangling impacts of trauma, and neurodivergent young adults, though many clients of diverse backgrounds and experiences tend to respond well to my authenticity and warmth. Clients seeking my support might be struggling with perfectionism, anxiety, burn out, boundary-setting, self-doubt, and identity. Common goals might include reducing anxiety, applying their awareness of self to healing, and approaching life and relationships with wellness and empowerment. My goal is to act as a partner in navigating the waves of life. I'm super excited to learn more about you!

Building on sensory awareness, mindfulness, trauma work, and creativity, we'll dig for the root of your distress. Tools such as thought challenging, processing trauma, reducing nervous system burnout, and empowerment to lean into your long-term goals may be cornerstones of our work together. I cultivate an environment of authenticity, warmth, and creativity.

Working with pre-teens to adults, I recognize that we have all experienced adversity to some degree in our lives and each degree is equally valid. While growth is often a layered and open-ended journey, your counseling relationship and an understanding of relational dynamics will be cornerstones for your adventure. Give us a call to discuss how we can help!

Traci, M.S., LPC

Hello! I’m Traci (she/her), a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia. I’ve had the privilege of supporting individuals and families since 2011, and I’m deeply passionate about helping people create meaningful, lasting change in their lives. My areas of specialization include anxiety disorders, maternal mental health, postpartum depression and other perinatal challenges, perfectionism, codependency, burnout, body image concerns, self-esteem issues, and life transitions. I also work with parents to reflect on their own upbringing, helping them develop healthier approaches to parenting while improving their relationship with themselves.

In my work, I integrate a variety of therapeutic approaches tailored to each person’s unique needs, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT), and trauma-informed practices. I also draw on feminist and systems frameworks, along with somatic interventions and mindfulness-based strategies, when appropriate. As an advocate for personal autonomy and social justice, I support and affirm all faiths and spiritualities and am committed to being an ally to marginalized communities. I believe in the inherent worth of every individual and that there is no "wrong" way to have a body. I strive to be anti-racist through ongoing learning and unlearning, and I firmly believe in the healing power of community.

If you find yourself feeling stuck in your personal life or relationships or yearn to discover your true, authentic self, you've come to the right place.
