Kelsie Francis
Psychology Assistant
Hello! I coordinate our psychological evaluation services and work closely with our psychologists to help make the testing process feel organized and easy to navigate. From preparing materials to helping coordinate each step of the evaluation, my goal is to ensure families feel supported from the initial intake through the feedback appointment. I know evaluations can feel overwhelming, and I love helping make the process as seamless as possible.

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 working alongside our psychologists to help families navigate the evaluation process with confidence. I enjoy coordinating all of the moving pieces behind the scenes so families can focus on learning more about their child's unique strengths and needs. Seeing families leave with greater clarity and a path forward is what makes this work so meaningful to me.
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!
Education & future plans:
B.S. in Psychology (2024); currently pursuing PsyD in Clinical Psychology
