About Me
Chelsea Frank, LPCC
I’m Chelsea Frank, a mindfulness-based, relational therapist, mother, and partner. I embody what I call the healthy fierce feminine-soft when safety is present, unwavering when protection is needed.
My work is for people who learned to disappear in relationships, families, or systems that required them to stay quiet, agreeable, or endlessly capable. The therapeutic relationship we build together is the most important part of this work. I believe healing happens through a relationship that is attuned, collaborative, and uniquely shaped by the two of us.
Rather than offering surface-level coping strategies, I support deep nervous system healing, boundary reclamation, and the return to embodied self-leadership. Healing is not about becoming someone new. It is about returning to yourself. I value depth over speed, consent over compliance, and relationships rooted in the imperfect, honest experience of being human.
I believe strongly in not taking anyone on a healing journey I have not walked myself. I do this work because I believe in it for my own life-not just as a profession or modality, but as a lived practice.
Athletics, time in the outdoors, movement, and spiritual creativity were early glimpses of what it felt like to come home to myself-to experience peace, ease, and presence in my body. Those experiences shaped how I understand healing: as something embodied, relational, and deeply personal.

This Therapy May Not Be the Best Fit If You:

I also hold a strong awareness of how larger systems-capitalism, productivity culture, gender roles, and other forms of oppression-shape our nervous systems, identities, and sense of worth. Many struggles labeled as “personal” make deep sense when understood in their social and relational context.
In sessions, I pay close attention to what is happening between us and within your body, knowing that real change emerges through felt safety, emotional honesty, and attuned connection.
Rather than remaining distant or detached, I show up as a real, engaged human. Our work is collaborative and relational, with room for humor, grief, anger, tenderness, spirituality, and truth.
