Hi there! I'm Chelsy. As a Licensed Therapist, I strive to build the confidence and sense of empowerment in the women I work with. Also as a mother of two, I know that navigating life during pregnancy, times of loss, and as a new parent can be challenging and leave you feeling overwhelmed. I am here to support and guide you through this time of transition and will help you adjust to your new normal. Together, we will celebrate the joy you experience and honor the hardship of your parenthood and womanhood journey.
I have over 7 years of clinical experience and training in different treatment interventions. I offer therapy for women, individuals who are pregnant, postpartum, and those experiencing perinatal loss. I cater treatment to meet your needs and use a direct yet strengths based approach to empower you to take on life’s challenges.
I hope to get the opportunity to connect with you and be another member of the village that supports you through this season of life.
