About Chelsea

Chelsea Burkell is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. She focuses on helping people manage anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, and the everyday problems that make life feel overwhelming. Chelsea works with adults and adolescents to address goals that matter to them. Her sessions are straightforward and goal-focused. She uses approaches that include client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, emotionally-focused ideas, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused work. These tools help people notice unhelpful patterns, practice new skills, and take small steps toward change. Chelsea often helps clients navigating relationship and family concerns. She supports people dealing with parenting strain, communication problems, blended family issues, and attachment matters. She also works with those facing grief, trauma, anger, or career transitions. She has seven years of clinical experience and uses that background to offer practical strategies. For people with ADHD, panic attacks, social anxiety, or body image struggles, Chelsea aims to match techniques to the problem at hand. Sessions blend listening with action steps clients can try between meetings. People who identify as LGBT can find support for identity-related stress, coming out concerns, and relationship challenges. Chelsea also helps with compassion fatigue for caregivers and professionals who feel drained by their roles. Sessions are available in English and offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Approaches that translate to online therapy

Client-centered work puts the person's experience first and focuses on listening, empathy, and understanding. This approach helps people feel heard and clarifies what they want to change, which is useful for issues like self-esteem, grief, and relationship strain.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks larger problems into concrete thoughts and behaviors to practice new responses. It can help with anxiety, panic attacks, depression, and unhelpful thinking patterns by teaching skills you can use between sessions.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and express feelings that affect relationships and attachment. This approach is often useful for improving communication and repairing emotional disconnects with others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust as needed so the plan fits the client's needs and preferences. That collaborative process helps identify which techniques feel most useful.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging offer quick check-ins, brief coaching, and flexible ways to reach a therapist between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
