Getting to know Kelson Furman
As a licensed counselor, I am committed to providing a safe, supportive, and client-centered environment where healing and personal growth can occur. My therapeutic approach is integrative, drawing from a range of evidence-based modalities tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual. I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, a powerful and research-supported method particularly effective for processing trauma and reducing distress related to past experiences.
In addition to EMDR, I incorporate elements from cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, and somatic awareness to support emotional regulation, self-understanding, and resilience. My background in music also informs my work; I believe in the deep connection between creativity and healing, and I integrate creative expression where appropriate as a means of fostering emotional insight and connection.
I work with individuals navigating a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and self-esteem. My goal is to walk alongside clients on their path toward greater self-awareness, clarity, and emotional well-being.
What should a new client know about working with you?
Working with me means entering a space where your voice is honored and your experiences are met with compassion, curiosity, and respect. I believe that healing happens within safe, authentic relationships, and I approach therapy as a collaborative journey—we walk the path together, with you as the expert on your own life.
Clients often describe me as warm, grounded, and attentive. I take time to truly listen and understand, helping you explore both challenges and strengths at a pace that feels right for you. I use a variety of therapeutic tools—including EMDR, mindfulness, and cognitive-behavioral approaches—always tailoring our work to fit your goals and needs. My background in music also brings a creative, expressive dimension to therapy for those who feel drawn to that kind of exploration.
You don’t have to have it all figured out to start. My role is to support and guide you in discovering clarity, building resilience, and reconnecting with what matters most to you.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
My process is grounded in creating a supportive, collaborative relationship where you feel seen, heard, and empowered. In our initial sessions, we’ll spend time getting to know each other, exploring what brings you to therapy, and identifying the goals you’d like to work toward. I place a strong emphasis on building trust and safety—this foundation is essential for meaningful therapeutic work.
From there, I tailor our approach based on your unique needs, drawing from a range of evidence-based modalities. This may include EMDR for processing trauma or distressing experiences, cognitive and mindfulness-based strategies for managing anxiety or negative thought patterns, or somatic and creative approaches when helpful. I regularly check in with you to ensure our work remains aligned with your goals, and I encourage open dialogue about what feels helpful—or not—along the way.
Therapy is a dynamic process, and I see our work as a partnership. Whether you're navigating a specific issue or seeking deeper self-understanding, I aim to support you with care, curiosity, and respect at every step.
