About Chelsea

Chelsea Sheedy, LCMHC, meets people where they are and helps them manage strong feelings and life changes. She works with individuals facing anger, anxiety, trauma, relationship struggles, parenting strain, and questions about identity. Her style is down-to-earth and practical, with short-term skills and longer-term work as needed.

Chelsea draws on a variety of methods to fit each person. Sessions may include talking, learning coping skills, emotion regulation practices, or creative activities like writing, music, or art when those activities help.

Background and approach

She frames therapy as a collaborative process where the person's interests guide how they work together. Her background includes music therapy followed by a master’s degree in clinical counseling. Chelsea practices as a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, and she has eight years of clinical experience in behavioral health.

That mix of creative and clinical experience shapes how she supports people with mood and anxiety concerns, addiction, and grief. She has focused experience supporting people affected by trauma and abuse, including complex trauma and survivors of domestic violence. Chelsea also helps people coping with bipolar mood concerns, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and life transitions.

She uses methods such as EMDR, dialectical behavior strategies, and acceptance-based practices when they fit the person’s goals. Chelsea offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. Her work is intended to be flexible and tailored, so people can find approaches that match their needs and values.

Evidence-based approaches adapted for online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters most to the person and building actions that align with those values. It helps with anxiety, depression, and life changes by teaching practical skills to notice thoughts and choose value-based steps. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) centers on emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. It is useful for intense emotions, relationship conflicts, and improving day-to-day coping. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) targets painful memories and trauma reactions through structured processing techniques when appropriate.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chelsea treats therapy as a collaboration and will help decide which methods fit a person’s goals, comfort level, and pace. Clients often try skills-based work first and add other methods as trust and readiness grow.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people share thoughts between sessions. These options offer scheduling flexibility and make it easier to keep consistent care around work, school, or family commitments.
