Reaching out for help is a courageous step, and my goal is to create a space where you feel truly seen, heard, and valued. My name is Chelsea Trice, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Board Approved Clinical Supervisor (BACS). I have been providing counseling services for over 12 years and 9 of those years have been while independently licensed. I work with children (ages 6+), adolescents, and families to address a wide range of emotional and behavioral health needs. Outside of providing therapy through the betterhelp platform, I provide therapy through my private practice, CMT Therapy, LLC. In therapy, you can expect a warm, non-judgmental space where you are encouraged to explore your experiences openly and honestly. It is very important to me as a therapist that you fee comfortable to share the hard things, the things that others may have judged you for in the past, or made you feel negatively about. Healing happens by looking at all of the parts of ourselves and figuring out how to make those parts work together in the best way. Outside of being a therapist, I’m a wife and a mom to two amazing boys. I love spending time with my family, getting lost in a good book or audiobook, listening to musicals, tending to my garden, and enjoying nature (not so much in Louisiana’s summers though). A few of my favorite things? Sunflowers, the smell of leather-bound journals, cooking meals with ingredients I’ve grown myself, and loving on our pets. As a therapist, I’d describe my style as dynamic and integrative. I use a person-centered approach that adapts to your needs—sometimes direct and challenging, other times gentle and supportive. My natural personality is upbeat, sarcastic, and a little witty. That energy often shows up in our sessions—unless your style calls for a softer touch, in which case I adjust accordingly. You can see below my area of focus, but if you have questions please feel free to reach out.
