OUR PRACTICE
Redefine Your Path to Wellness
You're starting to wonder if your relationship with alcohol has become problematic, even if it's not yet causing major disruptions in your life.
The idea of never enjoying a drink again isn't appealing, but recovery doesn't have to mean 100% sobriety. There is a middle ground where you can change your relationship with alcohol in a way that works for you.
ABOUT
Meet Chelsea
If you’re starting to question what you want your relationship with substances to look like, you’ve come to the right place!
​
I don’t preach sobriety and I’m not here to tell you not to do drugs. I’m here to create a place where we can have the difficult conversations in order to shine light on the parts of us that we would rather hide or pretend didn’t exist.
​
I’m certainly not saying this is easy work. I’m not a quick fix therapist who is interested in only “managing” your symptoms and or helping you better function in a fucked-up situation or world. I’m about getting to the root cause of your pain and using your intuitive knowledge about yourself to heal. As a wise mentor once told me, “I’m not in the business of misery management” – my work is about healing.​​
Folks that choose to work with me state that
“I get it…”
Why do I get it? Because I have both personal and professional experience working with problematic substance use, as well as other compulsive behaviors (including ones that are praised by our society – think perfectionism and workaholics).
​
I wasn’t looking to work with addictions and substance use – it found me. I’m glad it did.
​
I’m grateful that my clients trust me and allow me to walk with them in the darkest of places. And as they move along in their journey – they learn that the power to heal, live, and experience joy again has always been within themselves the whole time.
''Growth begins with the courage to look within.''

Frequently Asked Questions
-
What are your fees for counseling services?My fee is $185 for 60-minute counseling sessions and $225 for 90-minute/A.R.T. sessions. ​ I prefer to allot time for the full therapy hour as it allows us to more deeply get into the real reasons you’re seeking therapy. ​ A.R.T. sessions are scheduled in 90-minute slots to allow time at the beginning to discuss what memory we are targeting and time at the end for debriefing and reinforcement of new changes/insights.
-
Do you accept insurance?No. I am not in-network with any insurance company, and psychotherapy sessions are self-pay only. However - I would gladly assist you in seeking reimbursement from your insurance provider by providing a superbill that can be submitted for potential reimbursement. Alternatively, I have partnered with Thrizer, a payment application that handles this process automatically for you.
-
How does Thriver work?During our initial consult, we will first check to confirm you have out-of-network benefits (OON). If you do have out-of-network benefits, Thrizer has two options for reimbursement: Option 1 allows you to only be charged your co-payment for the appointment. The other option allows you to pay for the therapy session and directly receive reimbursement from insurance. To learn more about these options and associated fees, please visit https://www.thrizer.com/ before our consultation to see if this might be a good fit for you.
