Chelsea Gurney

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 10 years of mental health care experience. I currently have available daytime hours only between 9am and 2pm. My background is in social work, life skills coaching, intensive in-home counseling with families, and private practice with teens and adults. I firmly believe that no matter your situation, there is hope to live a more healthy and satisfying life. I provide a counseling environment of understanding and care, with a tailored approach to the needs of all my clients. If requested, I can offer Christian integration into counseling with you or your teen.

My goal is to help you feel comfortable, heard, and confident. If you are feeling like your current responses to rejection or challenges are out of proportion to what the situation calls for, then I can help you get to the root of what this response is really about. You might be surprised at how your past is impacting the present or maybe you are well aware and ready to jump right into deeper work. Either way, my combination of training in CBT and EMDR can help you make real lasting changes.

In our first session, I will get to understand what brought you to counseling, your goals, and some of your history. We will discuss what treatment might look like generally. I like to provide education to my clients on why I think a certain approach might be best, and to make sure we are focusing on the area that you feel has the biggest need.
