More about Chelsea
- 9 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
As a Licensed Clinical Social worker I believe that every person has the ability to grow and change in the midst of chaos, trauma, life changes, and stress. Within the nurturing environment of a therapeutic relationship, individuals can deepen their understanding of themselves and their personal challenges, while learning new ways to handle life's difficulties. I strive to be supportive, non-judgmental, genuine and down-to-earth, so individuals feel safe and comfortable.
I am informed by systems theory and value a holistic approach to therapy, working to address issues on an emotional, physical, & existential level. I utilize treatment strategies from DBT, CBT, TF-CBT and offer direct, helpful guidance for those who want more than just a good listener. I work with adolescents, adults, families, and couples.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
