Thoughts from others
Shelly Hannah
“Talking with Chelsea is like breathing pure oxygen; conversations that otherwise might be something to avoid are suddenly easy, fun, and invigorating. There is a simplicity in her wisdom and clarity in her perception that has helped me access a deeper sense of belonging and delight.”
Chelsey Kapuscinski
"Chelsea has gifts that are rare in this world; she is able to hold space through the most emotional moments, listen with compassion, and share insights that help establish clarity in one’s life. She is deeply knowledgeable about sex, meditation, and spirituality, combining these fields of study into a taboo-busting web of inspired everyday practicality."
Ryan Cheney
"Great meditation teachers and counselors create exceptional spaces for people; spaces marked by welcoming presence, understanding, and compassion. They offer guidance with great fullness. Chelsea is exceptionally gifted in these areas. On a foundation of intelligence, curiosity, and playfulness, she's built an impressive understanding of how people work. She’s frequently so insightful in our conversations that I find myself caught off guard by her capacity to view situations from fresh perspectives. She meets people with a radiant glow of love, an open heart, great awareness, and skillful guidance.”
Couple's Therapy

Individual Therapy
A supportive, one-on-one space to navigate challenges, deepen self-understanding, and create meaningful change.
Sex Therapy
Sex therapy is a specialized type of psychotherapy that focuses on issues related to human sexuality, including sexual functioning, intimacy, and identity.
How do we hold on to what truly matters in a world that keeps drifting from intimacy, depth and devotion?
This is among the questions I seek to explore...
This is among the questions I seek to explore as a counselor, coach, and meditation teacher. With three degrees from Columbia University, including master’s degrees in Mental Health Counseling and Psychological Counseling, I aim to bring both intellectual rigor and spiritual depth to my work with individuals and couples.
My psychotherapeutic approach bridges contemplative practice, embodiment, and the science of sexuality. I draw on nearly two decades of training in the yogic arts, classical tantra, meditation, and embodiment to help clients move beyond insight into lived transformation. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with some of the brightest minds in science, sex, and spirituality to distill accurate, practical tools from ancient traditions, making them accessible and effective for modern life.
About you
Whether you're looking to deepen your relationships, navigate grief or shame, or better understand your own body and desires, I will meet you with empathy, curiosity, and clarity. I’m committed to providing compassionate support and practical tools to help you create meaningful, lasting change.
I am anchored in the belief that intimacy with ourselves and others is not only possible, but necessary. It begins by becoming willing to show up fully to what’s happening in ourselves, each other, and the world. You have the capacity to live more fully, emotionally, erotically, and authentically. Exploring what’s real, what’s hard, and what’s possible is sacred work and I’d be honored to do it with you.
