Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in College Station, TX

I’m a licensed therapist with more than 12 years of experience working with adults in a variety of settings, including inpatient psychiatric care, crisis intervention, and outpatient therapy. I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside people during some of the most difficult seasons of their lives, whether they’re experiencing anxiety, depression, a major life transition, or simply feeling overwhelmed by the pressure of trying to hold everything together.

I believe therapy should be a place where you can be honest without worrying about being judged. My goal is to create an environment where you feel comfortable being yourself while we work together to better understand what’s getting in the way and identify meaningful steps forward. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, burnout, and the emotional weight that can come from being the dependable one for everyone else or holding yourself to incredibly high standards.

Whether you’re adjusting to motherhood, managing anxiety, navigating relationship concerns, healing from past experiences, or feeling overwhelmed by the demands of daily life, therapy can provide a space to pause, reflect, and move forward with intention.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I work with primarily adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, life transitions, women’s issues, and maternal mental health concerns. I believe that healing begins when we feel seen, heard, and supported without judgment.

My therapeutic style is warm, affirming, and collaborative. I tailor treatment to each individual’s unique needs and draw from evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing, mindfulness-based practices, and solution-focused interventions.

My goal is to help you build on your strengths, develop practical tools for everyday challenges, and create meaningful change that aligns with the life you want to live. Wherever you are in your journey, we can begin there.

Hey there, my name is Chelsea. I have been holding space with people since as far back as I can remember, and officially as an LPC starting in 2008. After obtaining a Bachelor's degree in Psychology with a minor in Sociology from Texas Lutheran University, I secured my Master's degree in Counseling from the University of Texas at San Antonio (2006). Walking beside clients in their journeys through anxiety, life transitions, trauma, and grief/loss for the last 15+ years, has been quite an honor. In 2015, I expanded my knowledge and practice to include work with eating disorders.

My clients are the “overthinkers” in the world...with big feelings that are hard to explain. They feel misunderstood, lonely and isolated while striving to please others at the expense of themselves. They’re exhausted, overworked, and over-stressed, feeling like they’re never enough. They have a vision for life, but aren’t sure how to bring it together, especially after a life-changing event. They're also eager for change.

Does this sound like you? If so, I warmly welcome you to my practice.
