Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Pueblo, CO

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who welcomes clients ages 14 and older. I am a mother and retired Army veteran who served in military intelligence as a Chinese Cryptologic Linguist.

My work as a forensic interviewer for children who experienced abuse and neglect strengthened my ability to sit with difficult stories and provide safe, trauma-informed care. My lived experiences with trauma, abuse, and autoimmune illness have also shaped my understanding of the mind-body connection.

I try every day to be an authentic human who loves and respects the individuality of all other humans. Being a clinical social worker for 25 years, is reflected in my personal values and faith system. My goal is to spread kindness like confetti which has spanned serving in Baltimore, Jacksonville, Atlanta and Eagle County, CO. I have a solution focused mindset, believe in the mind body connection and giving ourselves grace. Life is not always easy and sometimes we need short term professional support, some sunshine, a deep breath, a 20 second hug and some new found eyes on the situation.

As your therapist, I offer a space that is nonjudgmental, kind, and genuinely welcoming. I understand that trying new ways of facing life's challenges can be intimidating, and my goal is to help you feel as comfortable as possible throughout that process.

Professionally, I bring experience from a variety of challenging settings—including my time serving clients and families in foster care and nursing homes, even through the COVID-19 pandemic. My academic foundation is rooted right here in Colorado, having attended CSU and Adams State.

Personally, I'm a native Coloradan, a bonus mom, and a lover of all things creative, including photography and fine art.

My ultimate purpose in this work is simple: to be an open and secure space where you can process your journey, question mindsets that no longer serve you, and work toward being the best version of yourself—as you define it.

Hi, I'm Chelsea. I have worked for 6 years with teens and young adults as they navigate life. I am experienced in CBT, DBT and Existential approaches. I also have a faith background and work with people who are neuro-divergent. I am passionate about women's health and wellness as well as supporting the LGBTQ population. I specialize in anxiety, depression, ADHD and life transitions.

I am a neurodiversity-affirming, trauma-informed therapist who specializes in working with children, teens, and families. I have extensive experience supporting clients with autism, adhd, anxiety, big emotions, and challenging behaviors. I also enjoy providing parent support and coaching.

As a parent of 2 neurodivergent children, I bring both professional expertise and lived empathy to my work. I offer telehealth (primary) in-home, and community-based sessions so I can meet clients where they feel most comfortable.

My education has been focused on studying perspectives on personal development and emotional well-being. I received my Bachelor’s of Science in Comparative Human Development from the University of Chicago and my Master’s degree from the Columbia School of Social Work. Before working in private practice, I provided therapeutic services in a range of settings, including community mental health centers, NYC public schools and group practices.

Welcome to counseling for the first time, or welcome back! I am passionate about this work and see it as an honor to be with you during this time.

I believe that therapy should feel warm, collaborative, and authentic. I strive to create a space where you feel comfortable being yourself while receiving evidence-based care tailored to your goals. I specialize in working with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, perfectionism, life transitions, and identity exploration, and I also specialize in EMDR therapy. Together, we'll build practical tools, deepen self-understanding, and create meaningful, lasting change.
