About Chelsea
LMSW, Michigan. Chelsea Poulos has 10 years of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationships, parenting, trauma, grief, and depression. She works with concerns related to ADHD, postpartum depression, compassion fatigue, and caregiver stress.
Poulos uses attachment-based and solution-focused approaches and adapts what she does to each person’s needs. Sessions center on listening, clear goals, and practical steps clients can try between meetings. She also draws on client-centered and trauma-focused methods when those fit the situation.
In practice she talks through what is happening now and what a person wants to change. Together they set short-term goals and test small strategies to reduce stress and improve communication. The aim is to leave sessions with at least one concrete step to try in daily life.
She has worked across a range of challenges linked to family life and development, including autism and intellectual disability concerns. Chelsea also supports people managing grief, guilt, shame, and the longer effects of trauma.
People can expect straightforward, paced conversations that focus on what matters most that day. She adapts her style to the person in front of her and the goals they set. To begin, a short questionnaire and scheduling step are used to match needs to a first session.

How her approaches shape online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationships and patterns of connection. Online sessions using this approach look at how early bonds affect current reactions and relational choices, and help people try different ways of relating in everyday moments. Client-Centered Therapy centers on the person’s own priorities and perspective. In sessions the therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps people clarify goals they want to work toward. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Chelsea will discuss options and help decide which methods fit a person’s needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made. Confirm the session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific online or in-person options. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time, support shorter check-ins when needed, and allow sessions from a familiar setting. Ask during the matching step about format choices so the practical details match your schedule.Sheet 3
