About Kelli

Kelli Bouscher is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with nine years of clinical experience. She has worked extensively with military veterans, families, and people whose lives continue to be affected by past trauma. Kelli draws from a range of evidence-based methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and the Gottman Method, to support resilience, self-awareness, and lasting change.

Her practice focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, and self-esteem, and she also addresses related areas such as abandonment, attachment issues, codependency, family-of-origin dynamics, and substance use. Kelli emphasizes the strengths each person brings to therapy, working collaboratively to break persistent behavioral cycles and to build more satisfying relationships and coping strategies.

When working with couples and families she targets interaction patterns and communication, using structured interventions to reduce harmful cycles and encourage positive behaviors. Kelli believes that taking the first step toward a more fulfilling life takes courage, and she positions herself as a supportive partner in the process of healing and growth.

Approaches that Guide Online Sessions with a Licensed Therapist

Kelli integrates Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into her online practice. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current connections and helps people address issues like attachment concerns, abandonment, and intimacy challenges. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, empathic space where the therapist follows the client's lead to build self-understanding and strengthen self-esteem. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, making it useful for anxiety, stress, and many patterns that maintain addiction or relationship difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Kelli works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors interventions over time so therapy remains practical and relevant to the challenges a client brings.

Online therapy with Kelli is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain consistent care, access support from home, and use modalities that match how a client prefers to communicate with licensed professionals and therapists.
