About Chelsea Plaisance

Hello, my name is Chelsea, and I am excited to journey with you in this next chapter of your journey. The fact that you are here right now reading this bio lets me know that you are looking toward a different tomorrow. Whatever your struggle today, be it a difficult situation or overwhelming feelings or a mental illness, I believe that tomorrow will bring new hope. It is my honor and joy to work with you for that day.

A little about me; I have lived in FL most of my life but I am originally from Ohio, so Cleveland sports have a special place in my heart. I spent a decade leading non-profits and working in community organizing. My husband, son and I are often traveling and try to create mini-adventures each and every day.

I am a 2013 graduate of Barry University. My clinical experience varies from a homeless shelter to a jail to a year working with survivors of childhood sexual abuse. I have worked closely within the adoption triad with adoptees, children in foster care, foster and adoptive parents, and parents facing removal. My clinical perspective is person-focused and trauma informed. I believe you know what you want to work on and address and where you want to be.

The most important thing I think any patient needs to know about me is that I am glad to create a space for you and to honor your secrets and your stories. Our stories will likely not be similar to each other in many ways, but for a reason or for a season our paths have become one. We can move forward to a place of healing and acceptance and love because I already know — before you arrive here at my office or we meet online — I already am certain that you are enough. I look forward to meeting you.
