About Kelsey
Kelsey Poole is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with four years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, career setbacks, and depression. Kelsey aims to make starting therapy feel less overwhelming and meets people where they are.
Kelsey keeps sessions straightforward and respectful. She listens first, then works with each person to set clear, realistic goals. Her approach adapts to what the person needs, whether that means skill-building, problem-solving, or simply talking things through.
How Kelsey works
She draws on evidence-based methods to address panic, impulsivity, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. Kelsey also helps people facing issues like attachment wounds, abandonment, body image, and codependency. Conversations cover practical strategies and small steps that can reduce distress between sessions.
When someone is coping with life changes or disaster-related stress, Kelsey focuses on restoring routine and managing overwhelming feelings. She also works with people navigating guilt, shame, jealousy, and communication problems in their relationships. The work often includes building coping skills and clearer ways to express needs.
Kelsey tailors a treatment plan to each person’s situation and preferences. She values sensitivity and compassion in every session. The aim is steady, manageable progress so people feel more capable over time.

Online support options
Approaches and how they fit into online therapy
Kelsey commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. ACT focuses on clarifying values and taking action even when difficult thoughts and feelings are present; it can help people facing life changes or a sense of emptiness. CBT teaches practical skills to notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which is useful for anxiety, panic, and low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kelsey will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether to emphasize values-based work, skills training, or a mix of methods so the plan matches what the person wants to achieve.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let the therapist see nonverbal cues and create a face-to-face rhythm. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a quieter voice check-in is preferred. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins, written reflection, and skill reminders between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and to continue work consistently regardless of location.
