Getting to know Kelsey Johnson
Welcome, I'm so happy you're here!
I'm Kelsey (she/her), a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in California. I received my Masters from Loyola University Chicago and have been practicing for 9 years. I'm trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), CBT for Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder, Cognitive Processing Therapy for PTSD, and Radically Open DBT for maladaptive overcontrol. I have experience working in the social service field since 2011 within a variety of settings, including intensive treatment foster care, residential foster care for pregnant and parenting adolescents, high school counseling, and a partial hospitalization program for adults with eating disorders. I have worked with individuals, families, couples, and groups, and have treated clients struggling with anxiety, depression, perfectionism, disordered eating, life transitions, and maladaptive emotional overcontrol. In her spare time, she loves watching any and all reality TV, frequenting favorite and new coffee shops, traveling the country to visit long-distance friends, spending time with her family in Los Angeles, seeing live theatre and comedy, and (consensually) petting any dog that crosses her path.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
