About Kelsie

(She/her)

Why I chose to work at tpp:

I was drawn to work at Tampa Pediatric Psychology because the psychologists share the same dedication to supporting children's wellbeing that I do. Not only does this role align with my passion for promoting emotional wellness, but also serves as a pathway into my future career as I pursue my doctorate in clinical psychology.

Best part about my job:

The best part of my job is helping ease the stress many individuals feel when they first reach out for psychological services. Often serving as the first point of contact in this process, I feel honored to be trusted with their stories. 

how I spend my free time:

Outside of work, I enjoy going to the gym, tanning, going to coffee shops with friends, and trying new restaurants!
