Chelsea Sheedy , LCMHC

Chelsea Sheedy is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with eight years of clinical experience. She began her career as a professionally trained musician and then trained as a board-certified music therapist after studying at the University of Iowa. She later completed a master’s degree in clinical counseling to expand her clinical skills and increase accessibility for people seeking healing and growth.

Her work blends creative methods with evidence-informed psychotherapy in a multimodal, client-centered way. She tailors each session to fit an individual's needs and strengths, drawing on music, art, writing, or nature when appropriate. Her toolbox includes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Mindfulness Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy.

She has a particular focus on survivors of trauma and abuse, including complex PTSD, and also works with offenders and survivors of domestic violence. Her practice addresses mood disorders such as depression and bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders, intimacy and sexual dysfunction, addictions and co-occurring mental health and substance use challenges, parenting and family concerns, grief, and life transitions. She is trained in EMDR and adapts its use for distance counseling when clinically indicated.

Chelsea has experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, LGBTQ+ individuals, parents, and families. Her clinical style emphasizes empathy, collaboration, and practical skill-building to support meaningful change. She practices in Utah and provides services in English.

Could Remote Therapy Be a Good Fit?

Many people wonder whether online therapy can make a real difference. For a range of common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and navigating life changes - online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.

One of the clearest benefits is flexibility. Clients can connect with therapists in the format that best suits their needs: video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility can make it easier to maintain consistent care while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities.

Licensed professionals provide online services, and clients may choose a different therapist at any time if they prefer a different fit. For many people, remote therapy provides an accessible, effective way to engage in meaningful therapeutic work with trained therapists.
