Kelsey Hofer

Kelsey Hofer, LPCC, LPC welcomes people who are struggling with anger and related concerns. She helps people facing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, and challenges like low self‑esteem or career stress. Kelsey aims to make first steps feel manageable and practical for someone who is worried and exhausted.

She holds a Master’s degree in Clinical and Counseling Psychology with a concentration in Trauma Studies and has ten years of experience. Much of her work has focused on trauma, including sexual assault, physical assault, stalking, and homicide survivors, and on post‑traumatic stress symptoms. She also supports people navigating gender dysphoria, prejudice and discrimination, seasonal affective disorder, and complex sexuality topics such as BDSM and kink.

Kelsey uses a collaborative, person‑centered style. Sessions look like a conversation where the therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps people notice patterns that get in the way. She offers practical tools alongside chances to make sense of difficult moments and past hurt.

Her clinical approaches include client‑centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, solution‑focused work, and trauma‑focused strategies. These methods are used to help people build coping skills, reduce distressing symptoms, and name experiences that have felt confusing or overwhelming.

Kelsey is licensed as an LPCC and an LPC and works with people in Ohio. She encourages questions about fit and process so people can decide whether to move forward.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online work

Client‑centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. It helps people feel heard and guides exploration of what changes they want to make in everyday life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks down problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It offers hands‑on tools for anger, anxiety, and low mood by testing unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavior changes.

Narrative therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and their lives. It can help separate a person's identity from difficult events so they can rewrite how they view their experiences.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. That choice is collaborative and may change as needs evolve.

Confirm which session formats are offered before booking since formats are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a workday, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check‑in meetings when needed. Many people find virtual sessions helpful for staying consistent and practicing new skills between meetings.
