About Chelsea
Chelsea Burkell is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who focuses on practical, straightforward support. She uses warm, person-centered care to help people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and changes in life. Chelsea talks with adults and adolescents in clear, direct language to get to the heart of what is causing distress.
She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create an open space where clients guide the pace and focus of work.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and build different habits. Emotionally-Focused Therapy supports people who want to better understand and change emotional responses in relationships. Chelsea brings seven years of clinical experience to sessions.
She helps people with self-esteem, grief, trauma, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related challenges. Career questions, relationship strain, and blended family concerns are also part of her practice. Her additional focus areas include attachment issues, communication problems, impulsivity, and social anxiety.
She also assists with body image, codependency, and guilt and shame. These topics are approached with practical steps and honest conversation. Sessions can include short-term coaching or longer therapeutic work depending on needs.
Chelsea aims to help people notice small changes that lead to better daily coping. She works in English and offers several online formats to fit different schedules.

Approaches that translate well to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what the client needs in the moment, which helps build trust and keeps sessions focused on real concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and provides practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is useful for anxiety, anger, and mood concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and shift emotional responses, which can improve how they relate to others and manage intense feelings.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chelsea collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Early sessions usually include goal-setting and trying techniques together so the plan can be adjusted as needed.
Online therapy offers practical benefits like scheduling flexibility and easier access from different locations. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction when visual cues matter, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging supports brief check-ins or ongoing coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and keep momentum between meetings.
