Hey Michigan.

I’m Chelsea (she/her), a therapist and clinical supervisor with 6+ years of experience in the field. I help people with anxiety, obsessive-compulsive and related disorders, ADHD, and LGBTQIA+ concerns.

In summary, my approach is integrative, collaborative, client-tailored, and empowering. I'm passionate about fostering a brave, warm, and affirming atmosphere for everyone.

What I’m most proud of is the feedback I consistently receive from my clients: they feel that I genuinely care about their well-being. I truly do. Above all, I'm dedicated to offering steadfast support that is both meaningful and transformative.

The Contemplative Philosophy

Rooted in the view that wellness and wisdom are innate and unconditional, contemplative psychotherapists offer integrative therapy services at the intersection of Eastern and Western philosophies. Drawing from Buddhist teachings, contemplative psychotherapists are trained at recognizing the sanity within even the most painful or confused states of mind. Our dedication is to nurture this basic nature within ourselves and our clients.

“The bad news is you’re falling through the air, nothing to hang on to, no parachute. The good news is, there’s no ground.”

― Chögyam Trungpa , Founder of Contemplative Psychotherapy
