Working Together

Courage Speaks Counseling offers:

individual therapy

Individual therapy is a place to bring the parts of you that feel too heavy, too messy, or too much. Instead of trying to fix them, we’ll stay with them—slowly, gently—until something begins to shift. Sometimes that’s through EMDR. Sometimes through parts work. And sometimes through the simple act of being witnessed in what hurts.

Supervision & Consultation

This isn’t about checking boxes or proving competence. It’s about having a space where the work can show up as it really is—messy, confusing, alive. In supervision, we slow down enough to notice what’s moving in your clients, and in you. Growth doesn’t come from doing it all “right.” It comes from learning how to stay present in what’s real. At this time, I accept new supervisees only through referral or word of mouth. In consultation, you’re welcome to bring a case, a stuck place, or even your own questions about how you’re showing up in the work. It’s a space for clarity and connection, not performance. However we work together, the thread is the same: presence, honesty, and space for what’s real.

Workshops & Presentations

When I teach or speak, I’m not interested in handing out neat frameworks that gather dust on a shelf. What I offer are experiences—workshops and presentations that invite people to pause, connect, and feel what’s actually happening in the room. The topics can range from trauma and parts work to presence and the ways we hold each other through what life brings. But underneath it all, the thread is the same: it’s not about information. It’s about connection.

Practical Details

Sessions are typically 53 minutes. Available in-person in Kalispell or online anywhere in Montana. I accept most insurances (with the exception of Medicare and Medicaid), as well as private pay. If you’re unsure about coverage, Mandy can help walk you through your options when you reach out.

What Chelsey’s clients say

“[My trauma] just doesn’t hold the same power over me as it did. New memories from my childhood have come back – the good ones that had been tainted by this one negative experience. I can now see that I had a happy childhood. I can remember those times playing and having fun. It just doesn’t hold the same intensity for me anymore. I feel like I can go out into the world now.”

“[Chelsey is] not replaceable. [She has] found combination to my broken psyche and helped restore my faith in humankind. [She] taught me how to like and love myself and that the word sorry didn’t need to be my go-to word for everything I said. There could never be enough words to describe how [she has] helped restore my soul.”

― H.B. ―

“The week that followed visiting with [Chelsey] was the best I have had yet. It was so helpful to talk with [her] and have [her] reflect back to me the little gifts I’ve found along the way throughout this tragedy. I’ve also been using the tapping tool [she] showed me, and the “replay” of the accident has yet to come back repeatedly like it had been for over a month.”
