She is amazing

Written on Oct 22, 2022 after therapy with Chelsey for 2 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, family conflicts, grief, and coping with life changes

In my previous therapy experiences, I have never been 100% happy with my therapist. Then Chelsey came along. She is amazing at what she does! From her first message I knew she was “the one”. She is understanding, patient, intelligent, and funny. Chelsey is very easy to talk to and ensures I am always comfortable during our conversations. I would highly recommend Chelsey to anyone that is looking to do the work and understand themselves further.

Written on Sep 05, 2022 after therapy with Chelsey for 1 month on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, and intimacy-related issues

I started working with Chelsey 3 years ago after one of my parents died. Sorting though our complex relationship and my own life during career transitions was a lot. Chelsey is kind, supportive, and consistent, all traits I like in a therapist.

In the time we’ve worked together, I’ve had a source support and growth amidst career changes, difficult relationships, cross-country moves that didn’t work out, and then the COVID-19 pandemic and working in the response. And as a black man, having a therapist who’s willing to do the work to understand how to work with clients of a different background is so important, especially after 2020.

Chelsey was open to my feedback, incredibly thoughtful, and the experience of online therapy also meant I could reply in ways and times that worked for me. I’ve gotten so much out of our time together, and would absolutely recommend Chelsey. One of the biggest pieces of advice that I’ve taken is to remember I’m not truly stuck. Chelsey said this in some difficult times when moving for a job didn’t work out, and being reminded of my own autonomy helped me to make the changes I needed, and get out of life what I want.

Awesome!

Written on Dec 20, 2021 after therapy with Chelsey for 10 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, and intimacy-related issues

The flexibility of having Chelsey’s support available in non-traditional formats (like messaging) has made the difference between me having counseling and not. I’m about to make a big cross country move so was hesitant to start with someone in person. Her support has been practical and valuable, actionable when I need it and just thoughtful when that’s what I need.

Written on Jul 16, 2019 after therapy with Chelsey for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, self esteem, anger management, coping with life changes, coaching, compassion fatigue, and adhd

I really like having Chelsey as my online counselor. She is available any time for me to text my thoughts so I can address them when they arise instead of waiting for a weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly appointment. Chelsey responds in a very timely manner and offers empathy and suggestions for dealing with the situations. I value her insight and helpful strategies for dealing with my issues. I feel I have gained more self confidence and am able to make decisions on my own without second guessing myself constantly or worrying about making a different decision than my husband - and when I do, I can stand up for it.

Chelsey is fantastic! She has given me realistic, meaningful, and manageable goals to work on since we started talking a few weeks ago. I feel like I am talking with a close, wise friend every day that I can trust to point me in the right direction. I have attempted counseling several times in the past, but this is the first time I have felt that I am really connecting with my counselor and making progress towards my goals. Thank you so much to Chelsey and BetterHelp!

She also really responds to the things I say so that I feel we're actually having a conversation instead of just asking me all sorts of questions.
