Latimer, PhD, CEDS-S,  is a first-generation college student, graduating from the University of Rhode Island and receiving the university’s annual president award/excellence award in both disciplines.  Dr. Kelsey's passion for research and the health/wellness of children and young adults led her to furthering her education, earning her doctorate and masters of science degrees from the University of North Texas, with emphases in child/adolescent development and neuropsychology. Throughout her doctoral training, Dr. Latimer became extremely passionate in the prevention and treatment of eating disorders, women's issues, trauma treatment and anxiety management. She has since gone on to oversee several nationally recognized eating disorder treatment programs for children, adolescents and adults and has recently graduated with her bachelor's of nursing science degree from FAU in order to view people from a complete bio-psycho-social mentality.  

Dr. Kelsey is skilled in a variety of techniques and skills, including EMDR, DBT, CBT, person-centered, and interpersonal process work.  Regardless of techniques and tools used, she always utilizes a strengths-based approach, seeing a person first as a person and second someone dealing with a problem! In addition to being licensed as a clinical psychologist, she is also a Certified School Psychologist, Qualified Supervisor (QS) in the state of Florida, and a Certified Eating Disorder Specialist Supervisor for IAEDP.  As a result, Dr. Kelsey can provide full psychosocial-educational assessments (including gifted, specific learning disability, and autism assessments), qualified supervision for RMHC-Interns and postdoctoral fellows, and CEDS supervision for those pursuing their eating disorder specialist credential.  

Dr. Kelsey has presented regionally/nationally/ internationally with over 50 invited presentations on topics such as body image, dieting downfalls, eating disorder evidence-based treatment, college student functioning and working with the millennial generation.  She has been featured in dozens of media outlets (including Women's Health print magazine, Cosmopolitan, Allure, and many others) and is a co-author of the children's book series "POOFAS," which focuses on helping children to understand their emotions and provide development of positive self-esteem and positive self-talk.
