I help clients make sense of difficult emotions and patterns by breaking complex ideas into clear, practical tools they can actually use in everyday life.
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than nine years of experience helping adults navigate anxiety, trauma, relationship difficulties, emotional overwhelm, and patterns that leave them feeling stuck. I work especially well with clients who want more than a place to vent—they're looking for practical insight, clearer direction, and tools they can apply in everyday life. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, recognize patterns shaping your choices, and create meaningful, sustainable change.
My approach is practical, collaborative, and focused on making emotional and psychological concepts easier to understand. I use skill-based strategies for emotional regulation, trauma processing, cognitive reframing, mindfulness, and behavioral change. You can expect honest conversation, curiosity, humor, and tools tailored to how you think and live.
You don't have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. We can begin where you are, make sense of what's been weighing on you, and work toward changes that feel realistic and meaningful. If you're ready for a supportive, practical space focused on moving forward, I encourage you to schedule an appointment.

I believe healing begins when we feel truly seen and understood, and I strive to create a compassionate, collaborative space where you can process life's challenges, build on your strengths, and move toward lasting change.
Hi, I'm Kelsey Bass, M.A., LPC. I work with adolescents and adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), life transitions, relationship challenges, and stress. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of how to move forward. Together, we work to better understand your experiences, develop effective coping skills, build resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change in a supportive and collaborative environment where you feel heard and valued.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs. I integrate evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and person-centered techniques to help you process difficult experiences, build practical coping skills, and create the lasting, meaningful change you deserve.
Reaching out for support takes courage, and you don't have to face life's challenges alone. Whether you're navigating a difficult season or seeking personal growth, I'd be honored to walk alongside you on your journey. When you're ready, I invite you to take the first step toward healing and lasting change.

Couples therapy and marriage counseling, also known as relationship counseling, helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. Some examples of common focuses within couples therapy and marriage counseling include:
The types of therapy used in couples and marriage counseling include:
At Thriveworks, Couples/marriage therapy is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples.
The Gottman Method of couples therapy is a research-supported approach designed to enhance relationships by bolstering the bond between partners, resolving conflicts, and fostering shared meaning in their relationship through comprehensive assessments and tailored interventions that improve communication, trust, and the overall health of the partnership.
If you’re facing persistent relationship problems, communication breakdowns, or unresolved conflicts that are impacting your emotional well-being and happiness, Couples/marriage therapy may be beneficial for you.
While marriage and couple’s counseling is typically recommended for couples who are experiencing persistent or severe relationship issues, any relationship can benefit from attending these sessions.
Marriage and couples counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
On average, couples attend marriage and couples counseling for 12 weeks. However, couples & marriage counseling may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state. More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.
While you may not be able to control your relationship’s ups and downs, you can choose how to respond. Couples counseling with a therapist at Thriveworks in Helotes, TX can help you reopen lines of communication, rekindle that spark, and rebuild your connection.
Call us today, or book your first couples therapy or marriage counseling session today.
If you are experiencing an issue that is interfering with your ability to live your best life together, it might be worth considering a couples therapy appointment. Consider if you need to:
Talking with a professional can open the doors to communication, find the root of obstacles in your relationship, and teach you how to see things from a different perspective. Even if you’re not sure what the exact source of your troubles may be, our mental health professionals at Thriveworks in Helotes, TX can help you figure that out and work through them.
If you are worried about your relationship and you’re willing to do something about it, it isn’t too late. Couples therapy can help provide you with a compass when you have lost your way. Our licensed counselors can help you remember what drew you to your partner in the first place and learn how to cultivate those feelings again.
The first step is admitting you have a problem so you can do something about it. Our licensed professionals are trained to create a safe space for you to express your concerns and listen to what both of you have to say. They will help you open up to each other in an effective way, often teaching you valuable validation and communication skills along the way.
If you find yourself responding or reacting to your partner in ways you don’t like, there may be experiences in your past that are worth exploring. Childhood events, trauma, and even the ways our parents disciplined us can all have lasting impacts on the ways we act and react as adults. A licensed counselor or therapist can help you unpack those layers to find deeper meaning.
Your therapist is an objective observer who can shape questions that will prompt you to think or behave differently. You may be asked to share your current concerns, delve into your past, or focus on external factors that are placing stress on your relationship. Each session is designed to help you move beyond your issues and cultivate a stronger relationship in both the short and long term.
When you and your partner are ready, reach out to us at Thriveworks in Helotes, TX to schedule an appointment.
Our compassionate professionals are here to help you build a happier and healthier life together. We also offer our clients:
