Chelsea believes everyone can heal, and building a secure attachment is an essential component of that process. Chelsea's favorite part of the therapeutic process is watching her clients love and own their stories. "Authenticity is the daily practice of letting go of who we think we're supposed to be and embracing who we are." -Brene Brown. "You can either walk inside your story and own it, or you stand outside your story and hustle for your worthiness." -Brene Brown "Because true belonging only happens when we present our authentic, imperfect selves to the world, our sense of belonging can never be greater than our level of self-acceptance." -Brene Brown.
