With a Bachelor’s degree in Community Mental Health and a minor in Psychology, she weaves academic understanding with lived experience to support emotional wellness and spiritual growth.
Chelsea began her healing journey through traditional Western modalities. After finding that standard approaches—such as medication and conventional therapy—offered limited relief, she turned to somatic, energetic, and creative practices to support deep, lasting transformation. Through this process, she developed an integrative approach to healing while coming to a profound realization: true healing requires more than intellect—it requires embodiment, energy, and soul.
Today, Chelsea is a certified RM Method teacher. For over a decade, she has explored the transformative power of music and movement as therapy—using dance floors and sound as spaces for emotional release and spiritual realignment. Her consistent yoga practice has further anchored her into the wisdom of the body, breath, and present awareness.
Her work is grounded in knowledge of the chakra system, nervous system regulation, energy alchemy, and trauma transformation which helps clients create an internal space for self-awareness, peace, and personal empowerment. Blending evidence-based insight with intuitive care, Chelsea has cultivated a diverse toolkit that supports others in making profound inner shifts.
Rooted in the belief that healing is about remembering who we truly are, Chelsea holds a safe, compassionate space for individuals to reclaim their power and reconnect with their truth.
