Kelci Mapili, M.S., CRC
Developing self-compassion and self-confidence can be a confusing and nonlinear process, especially for individuals from marginalized backgrounds. As a second-generation Asian American, Kelci relates to the unique circumstances of multicultural identity exploration and the way it informs daily life. Bringing both lived and professional experience to the table, Kelci works with clients from diverse backgrounds, such as the LGBTQIA+ community and racial/cultural minorities, to develop identity, resiliency, and flexibility to cope with stress, depression, anxiety, and other mental health issues.
Kelci provides a nonjudgmental space for clients to explore all facets of what they’re experiencing and bringing to therapy, and how the world beyond them interacts with these issues. She uses an eclectic approach to treatment, drawing techniques and principles from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and psychodynamic therapy for a flexible and adaptable style to meet every client where they’re at.
Kelci received her Master of Science in Clinical Counseling from Illinois Institute of Technology. She has previous experience in non-profit counseling work serving Asian Americans and individuals with disabilities.
