Life feels heavy right now. You’re carrying burdens you never expected, wondering where God is in the midst of it all. The dreams you once had feel distant, and the plans you believed were aligned with God’s will seem to have fallen apart. You’re trying to navigate the transitions, the questions, and the emotions, but it’s exhausting, and you feel alone in the struggle. I want you to know: you’re not alone, and this moment is no accident. God led you to this exact moment to learn how much He's actually put inside of you.

Do you feel like you need to work out some of your thoughts and feelings? Are you not sure where to start? Hi! I'm Chelsea and I know that feeling all too well. In my therapy practice, I utilize an egalitarian approach while working with people. This means that the therapist and the client are the experts of their own experience. I believe we each bring preconceptions and values into the relationship and these core values can help strengthen trust. I’m, in general, curious about people and who they are; so I LOVE hearing about interests or hobbies or anything that relates to a person’s individuality.

I would like to think I bring some unique qualities to the table as a therapist, including humor and creativity. I am aware that these qualities may not be well-suited for every moment, but I like to use these skills to break down stigmas/barriers so my clients can feel comfortable taking on personal challenges and fostering a sense of confidence and accomplishment. I like to lead with empathy and compassion as I never know how long it has taken someone to muster the courage to access therapy services and sometimes the motivation doesn't always come from a positive defining moment.

You're moving through life with the sense that everyday stuff is more difficult for you than it is for everyone else. Staying on top of laundry, dishes, eating real food three times a day, and going to bed on time, work...it seems impossible. Despite all this, you can often “get it together” when you need to, even if at the last possible minute. When you try to talk to others about these issues, they just don’t get it. What if there is a valid reason why life always feels like an uphill battle, and the reason isn't that you're just "lazy"?

It is an honor to hold someone's heart as they journey through healing and unfold into the individual they desire to be.

I know how it feels to be so anxious that it robs you of the life you want to live. You have so much to offer and goals you’re ready to achieve, but the nagging “what-ifs” keep getting in the way. No matter how much logic or positive thinking you try, you can’t seem to quiet your mind. You’re tired of second-guessing yourself, feeling on edge, and overanalyzing every decision. You want to feel more in control, trust yourself, and finally treat yourself with the same kindness you give to everyone else.
