Chelsea Schor is a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Colorado. She received her bachelors in Pre-Art Therapy & Honors Humanities from Indiana Wesleyan University, and then went on to receive her Masters in Art Therapy & Counseling from Eastern Virginia Medical School. Chelsea has interned at a private school, residential treatment facility and Veterans Affairs Medical Center. She then went on to work in community mental health care with an intensive outpatient and rehabilitation program, and private practice. Art therapy is a mental health profession in which the creative process is used as the avenue for the client and the art therapist to build a therapeutic relationship. Through art therapy, the client can express themselves and gain new insight about the self and their place in the world. However, Chelsea is also trained in traditional therapy, so she opens the space for the client to express themselves in whatever form feels most comfortable for them.
Chelsea uses her training in trauma-informed art therapy, person-centered therapy, grief counseling, and family attachment to inform how she relates to her clients. She is currently a nationally board certified registered art therapist with the Art Therapy Credentialing Board. As she has encountered clients from many walks of life and identities, she is humbled by the power that expression and reflection-whether verbal or creative-have to bring understanding and healing to those in the therapeutic space.
