Professional statement

Kelsey Weyer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who holds a license to practice in Colorado, Maryland and Virginia. Kelsey offers virtual sessions to teens and adults throughout their life span.

Kelsey is passionate about working with individuals who struggle with anxiety, chronic illness, chronic Lyme disease, depression and family conflict. She has over 8 years of experience working in inpatient psychiatric hospitals with individuals that suffer from mild to severe mental illnesses, lending her a strong framework of how each illness can manifest in one’s life. Kelsey has spent the last several years providing individual therapy remotely.

Kelsey’s theoretical framework is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and mindfulness-based practices. Kelsey brings in her years of experience with trauma informed care as a healing approach, understanding how past experiences can impact current issues. Kelsey also specializes in Lyme-literate therapy.

Kelsey has both clinical and personal experience with chronic illness and Lyme disease/tick borne illnesses. She has a vast knowledge of the neuropsychiatric manifestations of Lyme. Kelsey can relate to the complex challenges that chronic illness and/or Lyme sufferers face including neglect and gaslighting from the medical community, friends/family and society. These experiences can often lead to a very isolating and traumatic healing journey.

Kelsey’s style is kind and compassionate. When a client first comes in, Kelsey allows the client to tell their story without judgment. She is dedicated to providing a relationship that is open and honest.
