Chelsea Edwards

Chelsea Edwards is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who brings eight years of clinical experience to her practice. She grew up wanting to support others and pursued that calling through a bachelor’s in psychology and a master’s in marriage and family therapy. Chelsea is licensed in Georgia and Connecticut and focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationships, and career concerns.

She uses a warm, interactive style and aims to create a nonjudgmental space where people can talk through hard moments. Chelsea emphasizes encouragement, patience, and practical support. She often helps with parenting, family conflict, grief, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and issues related to intimacy and LGBT identity.

Chelsea’s early work included group homes and in-home therapy, supporting youth and adults with depression, anxiety, substance concerns, and crisis situations. That experience shaped her belief that background and context matter in how people cope and grow.

In sessions she draws on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Mindfulness, Narrative, and Solution-Focused Therapy. She adapts techniques to fit each person’s needs rather than following a single formula.

Chelsea is motivated by watching people make positive changes. She supports clients through life transitions, decision points, and ongoing stress. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.

How Chelsea’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

CBT helps people notice unhelpful thinking and test new, more balanced beliefs. It often involves simple exercises and homework to practice between sessions, which can fit well with online meetings.

DBT focuses on building emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal skills. It uses practical skills training and step-by-step practices that can be reviewed in sessions and practiced in daily life.

Finding the right method is a collaborative process. Chelsea will work with each person to choose approaches that match goals, needs, and preferences. The plan can change as progress is made so that therapy stays useful and relevant.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, shorten check-ins when needed, and allow use of written exercises or guided practices between meetings. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and DBT activities for remote sessions so clients keep momentum during life transitions and career challenges.
