Chelsea Testorff, PLPC

Seeking support can feel vulnerable, which is why Chelsea strives to create a safe, supportive environment where clients can move at their own pace and feel heard throughout the process. Trauma, anxiety, and difficult experiences can shape how we see ourselves and the world around us, but healing can begin with self-compassion and understanding. Chelsea’s trauma-informed approach, rooted in CBT and ACT, focuses on helping individuals impacted by trauma, PTSD, sexual violence, anxiety, and crime-related experiences process difficult emotions, build on their strengths, and develop sustainable coping strategies for everyday life.
