More about Chelsea

  • 4 years' experience
  • Female
  • LICSW

Hello and welcome! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Alabama working with clients experiencing challenges such as PTSD and grief. In addition, my previous work as a Rape Victim Advocate, OB/GYN social worker, and vulnerable families has given me a strength in working with and navigating women's issues. Sometimes, managing emotions and life responsibilities in healthy ways while navigating life challenges and transitions can feel impossible. I offer a safe, nonjudgmental space for clients to explore problems affecting their lives and work with them to build skills to improve their life functioning and satisfaction.

I have worked with children, teens, parents and adults in emergency, residential, school, and clinic settings. I take a client-centered approach and draw from a diverse set of treatment modalities by utilizing techniques from CBT, Solution-Focused therapy, motivational-interviewing, mindfulness, EMDR, TF-CBT, and DBT.

It is normal to feel anxious about reaching out to a therapist for the first time. Perhaps you're a little intimidated by the idea of therapy or maybe you have negative experiences from when you tried to reach out for support in the past. However, if you choose to explore me as your therapist, I promise to provide a safe space for you.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
