About Chelsea Ostop

My name is Chelsea Ostop and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. In both my personal and professional life I value the importance of building and sustaining consistent and trusting relationships. It is my passion to cultivate a safe and reliable environment for my clients to meet their full potential. As an LISW I have experience working with individuals with anxiety, depression, trauma, low self esteem, domestic abuse and life transitions. In addition, I have ten years experience working with the intellectually disabled community. I typically utilize CBT and Motivational Interviewing but am certified in Nurturing Parenting and Trauma Focused CBT. I admire your willingness to begin your therapeutic journey. My desire is to assist you in meeting your goals in a compassionate and empowering clinical experience.
Please let me know how I may assist you in this journey.

“As a first timer in therapy Chelsea has made this process much easier than I could have imagined. I was anxious the first two weeks but now I really look forward to our calls!”

“It took me time with a different therapist before I was matched with Chelsea. And this is what I thought therapy would be. Chelsea listened to my concerns, asked me questions, and validated what I was feeling and helped me work through it. When I need therapy again, I want it to be with Chelsea Ostop”

“Chelsea has been a perfect therapist since I have started. She’s very welcoming and talking to her is like talking to a best friend you have known your whole life”

“Chelsea Ostop is always professional in her sessions and she demonstrates knowledge and expertise in helping me overcome my obstacles. She is also caring and empathetic in response to my issues and works with me in helping me to overcome them. I appreciate her help and guidance and am able to see a difference in myself as a direct result from the help she has given me. I would recommend her to anyone new to therapy or those restarting. Let Chelsea help you become the best version of yourself just as she has helped me!”

“Chelsea has been a great help to my mental help during these stressful few years. She is patient, kind and has a calming personality which makes it easy to open up to her. The guidance she has provided has helped me to define clearer boundaries and set goals. Over the past year I've been able to climb out of my hermit hole and start enjoying the little things again. Can't thank her enough :)”
