Hi! My name is Chelsea. I am a licensed therapist living in Tennessee and serving clients in Pennsylvania. I have been privileged to work with people in many different levels of mental health care, and currently I provide short-term and long-term virtual individual therapy for adults. I help people whose emotional pain has spilled out onto their relationships, work, family, physical health, or creative endeavors. Perhaps this pain comes from facing a significant life transition, grieving a loved one, difficulty moving forward from traumatic experiences, or recovering from prolonged stressful periods of life. Often this pain comes in the form of physical anxiety, excessive worry, obsessive thinking, hypervigilance, depressed or unstable mood, irritability, numbness, hopelessness, fatigue, dissociation, or suicidal thoughts. I believe that mental health symptom relief and learning practical coping skills are important in treatment, and I also believe that healing does not have to stop there. Therapy can be a place to uncover your true self, to become unburdened from the weight of the past, to help you live a meaningful life where you have agency, or to build your psychological immunity for the future. Let’s see if we’re a good fit!

Thank you for considering me as your therapist. Like shopping for a car or purchasing a home, finding a therapist with whom you connect is an investment. This investment is meant to benefit you and your desire to have a better quality of life with yourself or your partner. I work with individuals and couples on their journeys to living happier and more content lives. Do you want to feel happy with life and relieved from stress? We can work on taking care of that so that vision of yours can become a reality. Your story and the quality of your life matters most to me. I specialize in guiding communication and relational dynamics that are currently affecting your life. Whether it is personal challenges (i.e. detrimental self-talk, fear of judgment, life purpose) or relationship challenges (i.e. differing perspectives, communication styles, unhealthy conflicts), we can work on moving forward from this. I strive for deep therapeutic connections to help you and your loved ones feel supported, validated, understood and encouraged that it is possible for things to change for the better. The journey will not always be easy, but you do have the ability to change things. Book a session to begin the path to a better life for yourself and/or your partner.

As a therapist, my goal is to walk alongside you, focusing on your specific needs to help you feel comfortable, accepted, and understood without judgment. I work with people navigating challenges like depression, anxiety, mood dysregulation, relationship struggles, grief, and the overwhelm of a disordered life. My clients are often ready to establish more balance but feel stuck, unsure of how to cope or manage themselves and their relationships. I’m here to help you build the tools to make that balance a reality. I draw from a flexible mix of approaches, tailored to you. This includes evidence-based trauma methods—like trauma-focused therapy—alongside client-centered therapy, solution-focused techniques, and motivational interviewing. Whether we’re addressing painful memories or finding practical ways to improve communication, I adjust my style to fit what you need most.

Welcome—I'm so glad you're here and taking the step to prioritize your well-being. With the pressures of the world and our own self-criticism, it can feel impossible to uncover our own self-confidence, self-esteem, and self-worth. These emotions and feelings can show up in our lives in many different ways. Not wanting to get out bed. Placing limits on yourself due to a fear of failing. The expectations you place on yourself and are given to you by others can feel suffocating. I offer a comfortable space to be allow yourself to be vulnerable and find your strength to lead your life the way you choose. We will work on recognizing patterns of behavior and disrupting negative cycles. Together, we can identify what's not working and get you back to on track. Life is too short to not give yourself an opportunity to make positive changes in your life. Reaching out to a therapist can be intimidating. The fact that you made it to my profile is a WIN! I hope you can take the time to reach out and schedule an appointment to start this change in your life. I would like to help assist you along your journey.

Hello! Long before I became a licensed social worker, I took on the role of " therapist" to others around me. Helping people has always come naturally to me and is a gift that I credit to my grandmother. I have also experienced my own struggles and challenges which has allowed me to develop compassion towards others. Through some of my own life experiences with grief and loss, traumatic events and feeling ' stuck' I have come to see the benefit of both positive and negative life events. All of those experiences have challenged me and helped me to grow both spiritually and mentally. In some of my most vulnerable times, I appreciated and noticed the life changing power of a listening ear.   I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 14 years of experience in the mental health profession. I am passionate about helping others to find their strengths and advocate for their recovery. I have served in many different roles throughout my professional career and enjoy all of the people that I have been blessed with getting to know. Therapy can be scary, exciting and challenging and I am always eager to walk people through that process.

I have an LPC and an LMFT and have been seeing clients since 1996. I have extensive training in helping people who are going through or have experienced narcissistic abuse and any form of childhood trauma, this includes verbal and emotional abuse, family addictions, or any early childhood experience that would cause one to feel unsafe. I am also experienced in the treatment of anxiety, worry and mood concerns and work with addictions, obsessive compulsive behaviors and any poor coping skills or core beliefs that were developed in order to manage these stressors. I use practices primarily focused on somatic and cognitive therapy but also utilize acceptance commitment therapy, internal family systems, mindfulness and am solution focused. I use homework and assignments aimed at regulating the nervous system in order to repair the fight/flight/freeze response that is often stuck on due to a continuous history of a variety of life stressors (trauma). This trapped and stored trauma continues to trigger the nervous system to respond in ways where we continue to feel unsafe, even after the threats have passed. By working with the nervous system to release this trapped trauma and find safety, we can then have the opportunity to respond to the world differently.

Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Pennsylvania and have been in practice for approximately 8 years now. My passion is family-based therapy, which includes family counseling, couples counseling, co-caregiver alliance/ parenting work, and individual sessions. So many aspects of our daily lives are linked with those around us. Whether you want to do therapy alone or alongside someone else, it can be a wonderful tool to help people not only identify their main stressors, but also create a concrete plan to tackle them.

My approach is eclectic and client-centered, grounded in the belief that each individual processes and learns differently—so therapy should reflect that.

Everyone deserves a journey of self-healing and self-discovery. In fact, allowing yourself to blossom is the avenue to experiencing self-love and meaningful connections with others. I have worked in the field of mental health for over 15 years, but started researching and seeking methods of healing since my early teens. I attended the University of California, San Diego, followed by Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado, studying Clinical Psychology, Critical Gender Studies, and Transpersonal Psychology. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified EFT Practitioner. I have experience assisting individuals with a range of issues including anxiety and mood disorders, trauma, addictions, end of life issues, and issues related to discrimination and marginalization. I am an experienced therapist, supervisor, and group facilitator in various settings. I have also instructed Graduate Level Psychology students, teaching courses on Transforming Addictions and Multicultural and Diversity Issues in Counseling.

I am a licensed professional counselor and board certified dance/movement therapist. My work is informed by humanistic, person-centered, and strengths-based approaches, as well as lenses like solution-focused therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. I strive to create an open and safe space for clients to be their authentic self, explore emotions, communication and relationships, and find ways to continue growing within the therapeutic relationship. My theoretical framework values the following core principles: communication and relationships, outward emotional expression, and the importance of seeing a client's physical, emotional, and developmental world through their lens. I focus on solution-focused and cognitive-behavioral therapy approaches, but employ additional options as needed, depending on each client's personal journey towards healing.

The journey of healing begins with a strong therapeutic alliance based on trust and mutual respect. My worldview and core values determine my approach to therapy and engaging with you. I strongly believe in a holistic approach to therapy: I consider the art and science of healing to support the whole person – body, mind, and spirit. I have decades of rich and varied life experiences which inform my practice. I have worked in schools with children as an educator with a great understanding of human development, I am a grass-roots level community development social worker and a mental health clinician in community behavioral health.

Opening up to anyone, let alone a therapist you are just beginning a relationship with, can be scary. However, it is also the first step of healing and I would be honored to help you through the therapeutic process with immense trust, empathy and understanding. Through my experience working with various populations, all going through some of life’s greatest pains, I aim to provide a safe space for my clients. A safe space where they can explore the complexities of their pasts, the melting pot of their emotions, and the truths of their realities. By utilizing mediation and grounding techniques, we uncover what the authentic self means to each individual and journey towards achieving that in daily life. As a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, I am now an LCSW who specializes in working with children, teens, and adults working to overcome stressors in their lives. I have extensive experience working with families in the medical setting as well as individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, living with or being affected by someone living with a chronic/terminal illness, grief & loss and difficult relationship dynamics. I strive to be an open and welcoming sounding board who listens without judgment and responds with empathy. It would be a great gift to work with you and help you find strengths, overcome challenges, develop coping strategies and focus on creating a happy, healthier you. My therapy practice is online, using video sessions via a secure platform. Please reach out regarding availability if you are interested in exploring a meaningful, professional and bespoke therapeutic relationship.

Hey everyone! I am here to help with providing ways to get started in developing a new and happier you. I graduated from the University of Alabama with a Masters Degree in Counseling and I am also a certified rehabilitation counselor, having worked with youth and adults with learning disabilities. In addition I have a post-graduate certificate in Addiction Studies. I am a believer that if the mind and body are focused on goals, obstacles can be overcome, as you become more confident and powerful. We will begin our journey together as we work in small steps toward developing your new goals. These will always be your goals and I am here to help guide you toward them. My work begins by listening to you and then we will summarize what your expectations are. Then I will reflect to you what you have communicated. I will tell you what we can expect to change and how we will be able to make that change happen. My therapeutic techniques are driven by your needs and how you will respond to the new direction. No one said life would not send us off the pretty path that we all want to remain on. It happens. I can't think of anyone who has not had obstacles to overcome. I specialize in helping people overcome rejection, low self-esteem, work issues, disabilities, anxiety, living in the past, how to forgive themselves, addictions, how to stop living your life as the victim, and how to love and accept yourself and others.

Welcome. I am so glad you are here. This is such a hard step to begin to look into starting your therapy journey. I am a licensed professional counselor and received my Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Shippensburg University. I have been practicing for almost 6 years. I truly believe you are the expert of your own life and value providing a safe and healthy place to explore and heal what you are most needing. I focus on finding the root of the issue and work on treating the wound that may be inflicting pain on your present life. Sometimes we just need to take time to focus on ourselves and what we are most needing and make sure to foster this space in therapy.
