Kelsey Traughber, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Kelsey is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 13 years of experience working with individuals across the lifespan, from children and adolescents to adults and geriatric populations. Kelsey earned a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work from Spalding University and a Master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Louisville.
Kelsey’s clinical background includes inpatient psychiatric hospitals, residential and substance use treatment, community mental health, school-based therapy, and clinical leadership. Throughout her career, Kelsey has supported individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, substance use, relationship challenges, major life transitions, and times when life simply feels overwhelming.
Outside of clinical work, Kelsey has coached soccer for more than 10 years, working with athletes at various ages and competitive levels. Coaching has strengthened her appreciation for connection, resilience, confidence, teamwork, and the impact a trusted adult can have in a young person’s life.
Kelsey’s approach to therapy is warm, genuine, collaborative, and down-to-earth. Her style is compassionate but direct—she will meet you where you are, challenge you when it can help you grow, celebrate progress with you, and use humor when the moment calls for it.

“You don’t need to come to therapy with everything figured out. Sometimes knowing that something needs to change is enough. We can figure out the rest together.”
