Chelsea has allowed me to express my feelings , yell, vent and even tho there is so much to talk about in one session, she is able to give me advice and make me think and be better for the following week. Chelsea never interrupts and in one sentence she can give me that aha moment

Chelsea has helped me to dig into and reflect on parts of my identity and self that I otherwise would not have. Although it is not always comfortable in the moment, I feel safe exploring these ideas with her and I know I am better for having done it.
