she/they

Hi there! I’m Kelsey, and I’m so glad you landed here. I’m a professional counselor associate, meditation teacher, and cosmic explorer living in Portland, Oregon. I grew up in rural Ohio, and since then I’ve been honored to have lived and loved around the globe and country before moving to Oregon in 2020. My journeys and connections have imbued in me a profound reverence for the unique experiences of all groups and individuals, and at the same time, the unshakable knowing that we are all deeply connected. My passionate belief that we humans actually can honor, understand, and connect with each other across cultures & experiences is what brought me into the field of therapy.

After my master’s program in clinical mental health counseling, I dove headfirst into meditation teacher training. I was amazed and delighted to find that so many of the tools and ideas of modern therapy have existed within meditation and spiritual traditions for thousands of years!

Therapy opened the door to healing and compassion for me. Therapy combined with meditation and spirituality is what truly helped me embody a felt sense of wholeness, peace, connection, and contentment.

I started Cosmic Reflections because I wanted to create a healing space that I felt was missing from the mainstream, and that shared all the tools that have been essential in my own healing journey. A sacred space that combines the empowering science of mental health, the sense of interconnectedness that spirituality fosters, and the understanding of self (mind+body+spirit) that a reflective practice like meditation helps to grow. Welcome in.

Other things I love besides therapy and meditating: Learning and philosophizing about life and being human, daydreaming, journaling, marveling at nature, hanging out with my tarot cards, eating good food, listening to music from across time and space, dancing wholeheartedly, finding reasons to celebrate, escaping into fantasy books, exploring my queerness, being a hermit, connecting wholeheartedly with other humans, and hanging out with my two fluffy cats, Freya & Yuri.

Therapy is healing for the self and soul, for our relationships, and for our global community. I look forward to your company on this shared path to discovery, connection, and healing!
