Humanistic Therapists in Smithfield, UT

I take joy in helping people overcome challenges that initially seem overwhelming. I know that starting the journey towards healing can be challenging, and I'm here to support and empower you through it. It's a privilege to get to work with you and to learn what will work for you in developing and using those tools for yourself.

I personally know what it is like to reach out for support. Everyone has a unique story, and therapy doesn’t look the same for any two people. I am committed to remaining curious, non-judgemental and open to understanding you. I believe that it is imperative to be grounded in evidence-based practices, I find it equally as important to be genuine and compassionate within this very connection-based work. I primarily utilize humanistic and narrative therapeutic approaches, and often incorporate other modalities to best address the unique needs of each person I work with. I am trained in and offer Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy.

As a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (CRC), my training is rooted in chronic illness and disability. While I am trained to treat a variety of mental health conditions, this patient population is near and dear to my heart.

I recognize your efforts and desire to obtain happiness and healing in your life and relationships and I am so happy that you are here. To help you, I strive to create an environment where you can feel safe to go to your hurt places and navigate your healing processes, whether as an individual, couple, or family seeking therapy. I know this can be difficult, so I work hard to be there with you in the process to help you experience real changes in your life and relationships.

Life has everything in it, but you only see what your perception allows you to see. You are the main character in your story, which is why I take a person-centered approach to counseling. There, of course, is a reason for the feelings you have in the here and now, such as trauma, etc. Working through those hurdles and finding your light again is my primary purpose. Healing the body, mind, and spirit together helps create you into the person you desire to be. As a person-centered counselor, I focus on how the client experiences life and, through that, facilitates therapeutic change. Now providing LENS Neurofeedback!

Chelsea holds advanced training in couple therapy (EFT). She understands the negative pattern that couples get stuck in that quickly takes over their relationship; those moments when you say something clearly to your partner and they hear something completely opposite of what your intentions were and before you know it, we are in a fight. Chelsea helps couples to understand those patterns and help to not get stuck in them. Individuals who are seen at her practice, understand distress in their lives and are able to make sense of it and find the tools to move forward in a way that feels right for them.

Anxious perfectionists go through perpetual guilt, shame, and self-punishment. No matter how hard you try, you're always falling short. It's exhausting, but you don't really know how to relax and probably don't sleep so well. Maybe you're first-generation, or the sibling who had to keep it together, or a grown-up "gifted and talented" kid. Anxious perfectionism may also show up as body tension, severe procrastination and indecision, and difficulty with boundaries and people-pleasing. Perfectionists don't do things perfectly—they feel like they ALWAYS have to do better. You may not even be sure if you can call yourself a good person.

I specialize in working with individuals, couples, and working with teens and their parents. I know it can be difficult to navigate relationships, to feel connected to your partner, to experience depression and anxiety, to be faced with faith challenges, to not know how to deal with a past trauma, and to experience feelings of worthlessness and confusion with who you really are. It can feel difficult to know what steps to take to find peace and balance again. I believe in the ability to change as individuals, couples, and families and desire to meet you where you're at so you can get to where you want to be.

Struggles in life are often related to the connections we have with ourselves, others, and how we make meaning. My passion and sincere privilege is working alongside women and couples to improve these connections to create healing. I enjoy infusing warmth, honesty, humor, and current research-based methods to help produce changes. Together we can explore where you've feel stuck and how I can best serve you in creating desired outcomes.

Navigating life can feel like trudging up a stream through knee-deep mud. When I experienced this myself, I found comfort in therapy but eventually started to feel frustrated when I felt like I was just getting really good at playing mind games with myself rather than feeling an embodied sense of peace and clarity. In parallel, I was noticing the same with my clients early in my career. I decided to learn everything I could about psychology and neuroscience and apply what I learned in my own life and in my practice. I have loved being able to help clients achieve embodied wellness by gently amplifying their natural capacity to heal.

Taking care of our mental health is just as important as our physical health. I believe healing and thriving occur through creating new meaning from our life experiences and through nurturing loving connection with others and ourselves. I also understand coming to therapy to get help with life's challenges can be scary. You don’t have to do this alone, and I will go at your pace and support you in developing the skills and confidence to face those challenges. Every human is worthy of love, acceptance, and respect just as they are, and I work hard to create a safe space for my clients where they feel they can share and be themselves.

ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS! I appeal best with clients who have identified that some aspect of their life has stopped working for them, or never really worked at all. People who seek out a counselor to validate the fact that change is necessary, and desire professional help to collaborate in identifying their own natural strengths (or at least potential capabilities) towards overcoming difficulties and just need a personal team player. These people are exciting to work with, from individuals to couples. My hope is that my warm and inviting office atmosphere and my own experience and skills can motivate mental healing .
