Hi, I'm Chelsea
I specialize in working with teens and college-age young adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, eating disorders, trauma, and life transitions. My goal is to provide a calm, supportive space where you can feel understood while also building the practical skills needed to move forward with confidence. Whether you are seeking support for emotional challenges, academic stress, relationship concerns, or eating disorder recovery, I work collaboratively with you and your family to create a treatment approach that feels both structured and compassionate.
