Chelsey firmly believes in taking a holistic approach to therapy, acknowledging and affirming her clients' unique perspectives of their world. Through a client-tailored approach, she customizes her therapeutic methods, strategies, and interventions to meet the specific needs, preferences, and goals of each individual client. Her goal is to accompany her clients on their journey toward psychological, emotional, and spiritual healing.
Chelsey views her work as a therapist as both a passion and a privilege, approaching her clients with kindness, humility, and authenticity. She specializes in individual counseling, addressing a range of mental health challenges including complex trauma, anxiety, and depression. Additionally, she is equipped to help clients navigate life transitions, manage panic attacks, address perfectionism, and heal relational wounds.
Chelsey practices an Interpersonal Process Therapy (IPT) approach, guiding clients through their relational dynamics and exploring attachment styles, family roles, and cultural influences. Committed to providing trauma-informed care, Chelsey employs a relational approach in counseling, using the therapeutic relationship as a source of corrective emotional experiences. Her therapeutic focus centers on empowering her clients, emphasizing their individual strengths and dignity.
Chelsey is also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy (EMDR), which she uses to treat trauma-related disorders. She incorporates an Internal Family Systems (IFS) approach into EMDR sessions to promote inner harmony and integration. Through this approach, Chelsey aims to facilitate increased self-awareness, healing, and the integration of adaptive beliefs and resources for her clients.
Originally from the East Coast, Chelsey spent eight years in Dallas, Texas, where she earned her graduate degree in Counseling Psychology from Texas Women’s University. She is now licensed to practice in both Texas and New Jersey, having recently returned to her roots. Outside of counseling, Chelsey enjoys reading, long-distance runs, and cooking meals for family and friends.
