Chelsea Feeney, LCSW

Chelsea Feeney is a licensed clinician practicing in Maine with eight years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, grief, loss, intimacy challenges, low motivation, and concerns about self-esteem and confidence. She also brings experience working with depression and a wide range of relationship and life concerns, including blended family dynamics, communication problems, codependency, commitment issues, divorce and separation, and the complexities of non-monogamous relationships. Chelsea approaches each person with the belief that they are the expert on their own story and that existing strengths can be used to navigate and overcome difficult moments.

She frames change as a courageous step and positions her role as one of support and empowerment, helping clients clarify values, build skills, and pursue a more fulfilling life. Her practice includes attention to issues such as chronic pain, illness, and disability, fertility and gender dysphoria concerns, feelings of guilt or shame, isolation or loneliness, jealousy, questions about life purpose, and financial stress. Chelsea aims to collaborate with clients to set achievable goals and to tailor interventions to each personâs needs and preferences, guiding them through practical steps toward greater resilience and connection.

As an LCSW, which indicates licensure as a clinical social worker, she combines clinical training with practical experience to offer compassionate, evidence-informed care in the areas she specializes in.

Evidence-Based Support and Flexible Online Care

Chelsea uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical skill building and emotional processing. One approach concentrates on teaching coping and stress-management skills that help reduce anxiety and increase day-to-day functioning - these strategies are useful for managing stress, worry, and motivation challenges. Another focus is grief-informed support that helps people process loss, work through complex emotions, and find ways to integrate difficult experiences into ongoing life. A third emphasis addresses relationship and communication work, helping clients improve intimacy, set healthy boundaries, and resolve conflicts in partnerships and families.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Chelsea collaborates with each client to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors interventions over time, combining skill development, emotional exploration, and practical problem solving so the work feels relevant and achievable.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility, allowing clients to connect by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain consistent care from different locations within the same state, and continue work between appointments through messaging and shorter check-ins. Licensed professionals can adapt these formats to support meaningful progress in therapy.
