(she/her)
Hi, my name is Chelsea Camacho. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in California that provides services to clients statewide via Telehealth. I have been licensed since 2024 , but have over 14 years of experience in the mental health field working with toddlers, elementary aged children and their families by using evidence-based interventions to support the individual or families challenges. I have worked with children with anxiety, autism, depression, trauma, challenges in the school setting and ADHD. I have also assisted parents with developing positive skills to strengthen their attachment with their child. I am currently in the process being certified in Perinatal Mental Health to further help families navigate the emotions that may arise during pregnancy and post birth.
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
During our first session we will give brief introductions, explore what brings you into therapy and establish goals you would like to work on. We will spend this time addressing any questions you may have about the therapeutic process. I will also review the risk and benefits of therapy, consent and confidentiality. We will also discuss what you would like to get out of therapy.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My greatest strength is showing compassion and empathy by meeting where the client is at in their current situation. I provide a space for my clients to release their thoughts and emotions in a safe and nonjudgmental space. As your therapist, I will motivate you to step out of your comfort zone to assist with your achieving your goals.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
My specialty is play therapy and working with children and their families by strengthening their relationships and assist parents with building a strong connection with their children. Although my background is youth, I enjoy collaborating with adults and discussing the challenges we face with our family dynamics of raising a family. Let's face it, being a parent can be overwhelming in general. At times it can be stressful navigating family challenges, our child's emotions, and even our own emotional well-being. During our time together, I provide a safe, nurturing and non-judgmental space for my clients to help them process what they are feeling in the present moment and find ways to balance any life stressors that are impacting their relationship with others.

Attachment-based
I use Attachement-based therapy to further help the individual explore their past relationships with others and encourage them to identify and process healthier communication to strengthen their relationships with others.
Child Parent Psychotherapy
I have experience primarily working with 0-5 age population supporting families by strengthening their relationships between one another. I have worked with many caregivers by assisting them in developing skills to address their child's social and emotional well being. In addition, I have worked closely with the caregivers by teaching them skills to enhance their parenting styles to formulate a secure attachment with their child.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have assisted individuals by helping them understand the way they think and feel in the present moment can have an impact on the way they behave with others. I help the individual identify their challenges/issues they are currently experiencing and collaboratively work together by finding a healthy resolution they can continue to use as stressors arise in the future.
Play Therapy
I have used play therapy to further encourage the individual to explore their thoughts, feelings and emotions either verbally or non-verbally. I use this technique aid the individual to develop healthy communication skills with others. I utilize play therapy to further aid the individual to develop ways to effectively problem solve.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
I have used Solution Focused to help the individual to come up with a resolution to their problem by discussing what has worked and not worked for them in the past. We work collaboratively on identifying strengths to achieve the individuals hopes and dreams.
