Hey there! I am Shella Chichester (SHEL-LA CHEE-CHES-TER) and I am so happy you have begun your journey towards healing! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Georgia with 7 years of professional experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, grief and loss, self-esteem, and coping with life changes.
My approach to therapy is person-centered and non-judgmental. Therapy should be a safe space to be your true self. Techniques from therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and Existential Therapy will be used. What does all that mean? Together, we will come up with a plan that best suits YOU!
I am a wife, mother, and dog mom of two. I enjoy spending time with my family and traveling.
Now that you know about me, I hope to get to know you soon. I am proud of you for taking the first step towards change and I look forward to embarking on this journey with you!

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
