Hi there, I'm Chelsea!

Hi! My name is Chelsea Mattiello, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I honor you as a unique individual with your own intersection of identities, pain, perceptions, and experiences of the world and I believe your past helps to tell your current story.

My approach

My approach to therapy is flexible though I commonly utilize the following theories: Person-Centered (allowing you to find your own answers), Acceptance and Commitment (finding value-based intentional action), and Strength-Based (identifying your internal resourcefulness).

My focus

My client base includes those who have or are experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem, relational stressors, internal conflict, life transition obstacles, and women's issues. I have experience working with individuals in the LGBTQIA+ community, teens, adults, and families and I am trained in Family Systems and DBT.

My communication style

My style is warm, curious, and compassionate and my method is to help you identify unhelpful thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors that may be hindering fulfilling connection to yourself and/or others and then to find acceptance and an intentional path forward. I believe that the therapeutic relationship we build with one another is an important source of your growth and healing. I am known to use humor in my sessions when appropriate and enjoy learning your personality too! I commit to meeting you where you are at, holding space as you move at your own pace and gently challenging your comfort zones. Therapy is a gift to yourself and I welcome you!
