ABOUT
I'm Chelsea Darling, MA, NCC, ATR
and together we will identify and overcome the obstacles that are preventing you from achieving your goals and living your ideal life.
I am a Registered Art Therapist, National Certified Counselor, Florida Registered Mental Health Counselor Intern, and EMDRIA Approved EMDR Trained Therapist. I hold a master’s degree in mental health counseling and art therapy from Caldwell University and have experience working in agency, hospital, and private practice settings.
I help adults, teens, and children with a variety of challenges including anxiety, depression, trauma, difficulties in relationships, life transitions, stress, low self-esteem, and ADHD. I am also drawn to understanding and healing the mind-body connection.
​
I use an integrative approach to therapy by incorporating elements of client-centered and cognitive behavioral therapies with mindfulness-based practices, EMDR, and art therapy.
I recognize that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy and believe that developing a strong therapeutic alliance is essential for healing to transpire.
​
I seek to provide a safe, respectful, and non-judgmental space, conducive to fostering healing and promoting self-discovery.
Through our work together, you will gain perspective about the past and insight into the present while identifying and overcoming obstacles that are preventing you from achieving your goals.
​​
It is essential to keep in mind that therapy is not a magic pill or a quick fix: therapy is a healing process that necessitates participation and investment from the client and/or parents alike. In the end, making small changes can bring life-altering results. I look forward to being a part of your journey toward meaningful change, emotional healing, and self-discovery.
