    Sorry, you can't...

    Lightroom can convert PSE catalogs, not the other way round.

    You are in the same situation as when you have to import your data in any other organizing software. You simply have Lightroom to write the metadata to the files and you import those files in a new catalog in Elements.You recover tags, captions, ratings, but not collections or stacks.
