Getting to know Kelsey Milano

Seeking therapy is a courageous act. It is a crucial step toward knowing yourself and facing the things you fear the most. Sometimes this sense of fear or anxiety has been lifelong; other times, something has happened that completely upends a person’s life. There are also those who appear as though they are keeping it together while inside they are falling apart. I work with adults, elders, and teenagers who no longer want to feel controlled by their fear. They might struggle with identity, purpose, career, substance use, eating disorders, trauma, and, of course, relationships. Many are also queer and/or artists. I hold a Master’s in Counseling Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute and a Bachelor’s degree from the University of California, Los Angeles.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My approach to treatment is psychodynamic, meaning instead of trying to solve this week’s problem, our work together will focus on the deeper dynamics that manifest as that problem. Together we’ll attempt to work through these underlying issues to provide you with a greater sense of stability, cohesiveness – and most of all a greater sense of being alive.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Our work will play close attention to the here-and-now, as well as your relational patterns, history, defenses, and everything that affects the present. Collaboratively and creatively, we will widen your point of view, increase your tolerance for complex emotions, integrate fragmented parts of yourself, and discover the neglected power of your inner life.
