Welcome! I am so happy you are reaching out for help. My true passion in life is helping others navigate their own. Life gets difficult and we all need someone to support us; therapy is a fantastic way to allow us to learn how to better support ourselves. I have had 11 years of experience in the mental health field; with clients in the age range of 7-80 years old. I graduated from the University of Maryland School of Social Work in 2016 with my Masters in Social Work. From that point, I worked at the Center for Eating Disorders until 2018, where I provided family, individual and group therapy to both adolescents and adults. During the COVID19 Pandemic I worked an inpatient psychiatry unit providing a variety of social work services to adults struggling with chronic mental illness and/or addictions. Now, I’ve joined the outpatient world to better serve all of us together. But that’s enough of my journey. Now, it’s time to start your own. I look forward to working together in helping you work through the issues that you have sought help for. Namaste, Chelsea

29 years of experience offering psychology treatment

I have been practicing mental health and substance abuse counseling for 29 years. I believe that my approach is warm and passionate. I believe that therapy is a collaborative approach between the therapist and client. My specializations and experience include working with clients with addictions, depression, work related issues, mood disorders, anxiety, self-worth/self-esteem issues, family conflict and other issues. In my years of treating various clients, I have found that one major similarity is how unkind clients can be to themselves as compared to how they are to others. My goal is to help them see how they manifest this lack of self-compassion and self-love. By empowering clients to be aware of this behavior and other unhealthy behaviors, clients make better decisions, engage in healthier relationships, and see the world in a more positive way. I hope that I will have the opportunity to share this experience with you.

24 years of experience offering psychology treatment

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Maryland. I have been practicing since 1999, when I graduated from Temple University with a Masters Degree in Counseling Psychology. I spent the first 7 years of my counseling career working in a large outpatient mental health organization, several as assistant clinical director, before entering private practice. Prior to becoming a psychotherapist, I spent 10 years as Director of Human Resources for a mid-sized corporation. My goal is to facilitate your healing, growth, and transformation. Rooted in the psychodynamic orientation, my therapeutic approach is "active eclectic", utilizing cognitive behavioral, Adlerian, and Solution-focused interventions. I facilitate change by helping clients understand the underlying reasons why they feel conflicted and by helping identify patterns of behavior that are keeping them stuck. Together we work to develop new, healthier ways to respond to present day challenges. My practice focuses on supporting clients with mood disorders & chronic mental illness; anger & stress management; emotional self-regulation; trauma; chronic pain, medical illness & physical injury; grief & loss, and other difficult life transitions. My previous career in HR prepared me to "coach" clients seeking Personal Growth & Professional Productivity. Neurofeedback, Eye Movement Integration, and Clinical Hypnosis are frequently used as adjuncts to psychotherapy in my private practice. Online clients can learn self-hypnosis and breathing techniques, powerful tools to regulate chronic pain and anxiety, helping reclaim control over their lives. I have also worked extensively with veterans and their families in the Washington DC area, having received special training from military organizations for non-military professionals. I utilize Live Video & Phone sessions, & I will respond to a few messages between sessions, but I do not conduct therapy via Live Chat or messaging.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs) about therapists and mental health services

Some other commonly asked questions on therapy with a licensed counselor and BetterHelp serving the Clear Spring area can be found below:

How does the cost of in-person counseling with a therapist compare to the cost of BetterHelp with a licensed Clear Spring therapist?

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in Clear Spring due to a higher cost of living, and a limited number of therapists taking new clients. The price also depends on the type of provider you are looking for. See the following average prices for various mental health providers without insurance:

  • Counseling with a psychiatrist: $150-$500
  • Counseling with therapists: $100-300
  • Therapy with a clinician: $100

While many psychologists in Clear Spring may not take health insurance, some in the state of Maryland may work on a sliding scale, meaning they'll factor in your income and charge what you can afford per session. With a BetterHelp therapist throughout the state of Maryland you can expect significantly more affordable options, with sessions ranging from $65 to $100 per week (billed every four weeks).

How do I know if online counseling is right for my family in Clear Spring?

One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide. Your friends and loved ones may also be available to listen, but you may feel that they may lack the skills to provide objective guidance.

Therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of Clear Spring therapy is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.

You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback. A Clear Spring licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.

Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find with a Clear Spring counselor can be dependent on your process.

Is mental health care and therapy with a therapist worth it?

Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. An experienced clinician can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based licensed clinician in Clear Spring, Maryland can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.

Clear Spring has many clinicians who practice person or client-centered individual therapy in-person and through online sessions to assist clients in their healing journey. If you opt into online therapy, you might also be able to meet with providers all over the United States and change easily at any time. Many people struggling with anxiety and depression, substance abuse, body image issues, and more find therapists that are a good fit for them, feel supported, and gain further insight into their lives through internet-based therapy.

Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?

The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you. You might consider changing counselors if you don't feel safe or respected.
