About Chelsea
Chelsea Sheedy is an LCMHC (Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor) based in Utah with eight years of clinical experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, depression, parenting strain, and related issues. Chelsea also supports people dealing with grief, career questions, addiction, ADHD, and identity concerns including LGBT matters.
Chelsea began her professional life as a musician and worked as a board certified music therapist after studying at the University of Iowa. She later completed a master’s degree in clinical counseling to add clinical tools and broader access for people seeking help. That combination of music background and counseling informs a creative, practical way of working.
Sessions often mix talking with hands-on activities such as music, writing, or nature-based ideas when those fit a person’s interests. She uses a multimodal approach and draws on several methods to help people learn skills, manage symptoms, and handle everyday problems. Chelsea pays attention to what helps each person feel able to try new strategies.
She has focused experience supporting survivors of trauma and abuse, including complex post-traumatic stress, and also works with people affected by domestic violence and by co-occurring mental health and substance use concerns. Chelsea regularly addresses mood symptoms, anxiety, intimacy and sexual concerns, and parenting difficulties.
Chelsea works with adults and younger clients, and she has experience supporting LGBTQ+ people. She accepts international clients. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How Chelsea uses specific approaches in online work
Chelsea draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice thoughts and choose values-based actions rather than getting stuck in worry. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and decisions about relationships or life changes.She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy ideas to look at patterns that developed in close relationships. That work helps when people struggle with abandonment, attachment issues, intimacy problems, or uncertainty in relationships.
Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Chelsea will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that fit the person. Together they adjust techniques based on what helps and what feels doable.
