My approach is warm and present. I trust in your judgment in the therapeutic process, and view each individual as the expert in their own life. I’ve worked in the mental health field in Northern New Mexican communities for a decade.
My approach is trauma informed, strengths based, and includes EMDR, family systems therapy, somatic mindfulness, narrative therapy, and techniques from Gabor Mate’s Compassionate Inquiry approach. I use humor when it fits. I believe our relationships with nature, community, spirituality, and creativity can be primary parts of the healing process.

Meditation, mindfulness, guided imagery, and EMDR are some of the techniques I utilize most. I look forward to meeting and working with you!

Do you feel like you are waiting for your real life to start?
I love talking through an existential crisis or sitting with thoughts and feelings you might think are unacceptable to share. In my view, real life begins when we see our dreams and fears for what they are, start taking responsibility for the choices we do have, and allow ourselves to begin feeling this life more fully.

I help adults heal from complex trauma and childhood emotional neglect through deep, attuned, transformative work.
Many of my clients grew up without the emotional support they needed, learning to be strong, capable, and self-reliant at great personal cost. I offer a grounded, emotionally present style that combines AEDP, attachment repair, and somatic awareness. Together we uncover the parts of you that were never met, so genuine relief and deeper self-connection can finally emerge.

I work with individuals across the adult lifespan—from those navigating early adulthood to those facing aging-related transitions.
Life brings challenges that can overwhelm our ability to cope. You may be struggling with depression, anxiety, unresolved trauma, or turning to coping strategies that offer temporary relief but ultimately create more distress—like gambling, overspending, substance use, or emotional withdrawal. Transitions such as relationship struggles, career changes, or the natural process of aging can also bring emotional strain and disrupt your sense of balance.

My approach is depth-oriented and growth-focused, helping clients regain clarity, agency, and a stronger sense of self. I specialize in working with clients who feel stuck in recurring patterns, identity confusion, or emotional reactivity and are seeking meaningful, lasting change rather than surface-level coping.

Many of the people I work with are carrying a lot — family conflict, relationship strain, parenting stress, or feeling stuck. In Northern New Mexico, family and community run deep. Sometimes that strength also brings complexity. My clients often want life to feel steadier, relationships to feel clearer, and their day-to-day experience to better reflect their values.

Are you a woman who struggles with anxiety and often feels drained? Do you tend to avoid your emotions instead of addressing them, yet on some level, you know you feel overwhelmed, irritable, and disengaged? Anxiety can make it hard to trust yourself and others, causing you to lose confidence in your decisions and question your own emotions. Anxiety can pull you between the past, present, and future, causing old wounds and trauma to resurface. I’m Chelsie. I’ll help you regulate your nervous system so you can feel more grounded and present in your daily life.

Why should adults see a therapist?
Adults may benefit from therapy for a wide range of reasons—whether it’s managing symptoms of a diagnosed mental health condition like anxiety or depression, navigating life transitions, coping with grief or trauma, or simply seeking support during a challenging life period. Many adults find that therapy helps them build healthier coping skills and better process their emotions, which may lead to better relationships and reduced stress. It’s important to note that, unlike psychiatrists or primary care physicians, therapists do not prescribe psychiatric medication. However, they will often work alongside prescribing clinicians to ensure coordinated care and can provide behavioral therapy as an important addition to psychiatric medication. Mental health concerns can look different in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence, so finding a therapist with expertise working with adult clients is important. Conditions like major depressive disorder (MDD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), bipolar disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for instance, may present or resurface differently in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence. Adult-specific stressors, such as job strain, caregiving responsibilities, relationship challenges, financial stress, or identity transitions, can also influence the onset and type of symptoms an individual experiences. Adult-focused therapists, therefore, are trained to understand these complexities and tailor care accordingly.
How do I know if a therapist is the right fit for me?
When seeking care, it’s important to understand a therapist’s treatment specialties and their overall approach to treatment . Some therapists focus on common adult conditions like anxiety or depression, while others specialize in areas such as trauma, substance use disorders, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. It’s also important to consider a therapist’s training when seeking care. Therapists hold various licenses depending on their training and state requirements. Common therapy credentials include Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs), Licensed Mental Health Counselors (LMHCs), Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs), and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs). Psychologists (PhD or PsyD) receive additional doctoral-level training and may focus on assessments or more specialized therapeutic approaches. All of these professionals can provide talk therapy but do not prescribe medication. When searching for a therapist, consider their credentials and training background to ensure a good fit.
How do I find a therapist who sees adults?
Psychology Today’s online directory allows you to search specifically for therapists who work with adults. Each provider profile includes key information such as clinical specialties, therapeutic approaches, licensure, accepted insurance plans, languages spoken, and session fees. Reviewing these details can help you determine whether a particular provider aligns with your needs and can indicate whether they are a good match for adult clients.
