Kelsey Lovelace, LPC, NCC
I obtained my B.A. in Psychology from the University of Oregon (Go Ducks!) in 2012 and received my M.A. in Professional Mental Health Counseling from the Lewis & Clark Graduate School of Education and Counseling in 2017. I am currently licensed in the State of Oregon by the Oregon Board of Licensed Professional Counselors and am also a Nationally Certified Counselor through the National Board of Certified Counselors.
I have been working in the Mental Health field since 2013 when I started my career as a Residential Counselor and went on to become a Skills Trainer, working primarily in non-profit residential facilities with adults living with severe and persistent mental illness. I have been providing therapy since 2016 in the outpatient setting and found my passion in working with adolescents, young adults, and trauma survivors.
I hold Tier 1 Certifications in Brainspotting and Collaborative Problem Solving. I have started the process of becoming a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional via attending continuing education courses that are required to obtain this certification. I continue to expand my knowledge and expertise as a counselor through participating in CEU courses, as it is also a requirement to maintain licensure status in the State of Oregon.
