Hi! I’m Kelsey Dadson! Here’s the boring stuff first - I graduated with my Master of Social Work degree from the University of St. Thomas (MN) in 2018. I have over 10 years of experience working in many different settings in the mental health field including outpatient settings, residential settings, and correctional facilities.

My area of expertise is trauma, I am trained in EMDR and utilize the modality to help you alleviate trauma symptoms. My niche within the trauma realm is childhood sexual abuse. I also enjoy working with people experiencing life stressors/transitions, relationship concerns, depression, and anxiety. I utilize an empathetic human centered approach within all appointments, as well as being direct when needed!

I am trained in several different therapy modalities and utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I am also currently working on my Sex Therapy Certificate through the Sexual Health Alliance. Together, we'll set goals and treatment modality to work toward a life worth living.

You won't just get to know “therapist Kelsey”. I like to bring my personality to appointments and you will get to know me more as “human Kelsey”. I enjoy being outdoors, sewing, trying new restaurants/food, traveling, spending time with friends/family, and going exploring with my puppy (Nellie) and my husband.
