Teen Empowerment

The transition to young adulthood is fundamentally challenging. Teenagers of today are experiencing record high levels of stress, anxiety, and depression with the pressure of the times. It’s natural for this age group to resist guidance from their primary caregivers, and thus the support from a therapist or coach can be of great provision on their journey.

Having been in therapy myself as a teenager, I have experienced first-hand the transformative change that guidance can provide. Inspired by my own lived experience, young adults became the focus of the first half of my career. I counseled foster youth, young adults aging out of foster care, and became the personal mentor for at-risk teens. I additionally coached several rounds of Extreme Teen Leaders, an incredible teen self-development program, under the guidance of one of my mentors, Tamrah Barber.

I have always revered teenage years as a potent time in a person’s life to instill lasting values around self-esteem, healthy relationships, emotional intelligence, and purpose. Cultivating these qualities in young adults is a powerful way to set them up for a fulfilling and enriched life as adults. I would be honored to support your loved one on their journey to becoming the best version of themselves.

Client Testimonials

I came to Chelsea with little to no hope of getting through the situation that I was in.I’ve been seeing Chelsea for almost a year now and I can confidently say that I have made huge progress in dealing with my anxiety & handling unpleasant situations better. I would definitely recommend her to anyone struggling mentally or generally anyone that needs guidance in dealing with situations that inevitably arise.

Working with Chelsea, I felt understood, seen and acknowledged. Chelsea guided me one session at a time from the depths of despair to where I am today. I currently love and believe in myself to the point where I have goals that I thought I could never even dream of, far more to achieve. Thank you, Chelsea, for being the beacon in my life, with your wisdom, understanding and grace.

Chelsea continues to be my mentor, confidant, and therapist till today.

Chelsea has been incredibly helpful regarding my mental health diagnosis; she has supported me in working through depression and anxiety. She is an easy person to talk to as she is very open, understanding, and solution focused. Chelsea is very good at what she does.

I’ve learnt something new and enlightening in every session and I always leave feeling better than when I came. One of the biggest lessons I’ve also learnt thus far in therapy was being made aware of how my childhood background/ trauma plays a major role in who I am now as a person and the people that I attract in my life and the ways in which I can heal such trauma. Personally, I would highly recommend Chelsea, she’s very intuitive and has always made me feel seen, validated, heard ,understood and has equipped me with tools that I can use in between sessions to manage and process my emotions.
