About me
Welcome! I’m so glad you’ve made your way here. Therapy is the first step to becoming your best and strongest self. Life is hard and constantly throwing new challenges our way; having someone to share the load with can be so helpful. My name is Chelsy and I am a psychotherapist offering therapy and counseling services in York Pennsylvania. I strongly believe in the power of human connection and provide in person therapy at my office in York, PA.
I believe a fundamental piece of the human experience is relationships; the relationships we forge with our friends and loved ones and our larger community around us. This is the guiding principle for my therapeutic approach. I believe that therapy is an experience of humanism and is only as effective as the working relationship between a therapist and the client. My primary objective is that you feel comfortable, seen, heard, and valued in the therapy process. I take a person centered approach in my practice pulling in elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment Theory, and Emotionally Focused Therapy, as well as others that are applicable to your individual needs.
I believe that therapy is your experience, not mine. I take a collaborative client-centered approach, meaning I will work with you to ensure that your therapeutic experience meets your needs, while supporting your growth.
My goal is to create a safe, welcoming, and comfortable space for you to talk about whatever challenges life throws at you. We will navigate these issues together and help you sort through them in a way that works for you.
I am passionate about early childhood development and how our childhood experiences lay the foundation for how we interact with the world as adults. In my therapeutic practice I enjoy supporting people in their transition into parenthood and finding a strong sense of self in their new role.
I have existed in various social work and counseling roles since 2012 in New Hampshire, Vermont, and Pennsylvania. I believe that everyone has the capacity for change and I love supporting individuals in becoming their most vivid versions of themselves.
A New England native, I earned my Bachelor’s in Psychology from Champlain College in Burlington, Vermont, and my Master’s Degree in Social Work from the University of New Hampshire in Durham, New Hampshire. I reside in York, PA with my husband and two children.
