Registered Psychotherapist

M.A., B.A.

About

Chelsea has worked in mental health for nearly a decade across inpatient and outpatient settings, addictions counselling, and community-based services. These experiences shaped how she understands trauma, resilience, and the ways people adapt in response to stress, loss, and change. That foundation continues to guide her work as a psychotherapist today.

Her approach is informed by seeing how people survive difficult circumstances long before they ever enter therapy. Chelsea brings a thoughtful, relational lens to her work and focuses on helping clients make sense of their experiences in ways that support long-term healing and growth.

Approach

Chelsea works with teens and adults who have been carrying more than they should have had to for a long time. For some, this includes clearly defined trauma; for others, it is the slower buildup of stress, responsibility, or years spent staying strong for others.

Many clients come to therapy feeling stuck in survival mode, anxious, disconnected, or exhausted. Her work is not about fixing what is “wrong,” but about understanding how the nervous system learned to protect itself, and developing new ways to feel safer, steadier, and more connected. Chelsea’s work is relational and trauma-informed, blending emotional processing with practical tools for stability and self-understanding. She draws from DBT, CBT, ACT, IFS, Polyvagal Theory, and attachment-focused therapy.
