About Dr. Chelsea Brieman
Thank you for visiting my site and for taking some big steps towards your journey of self-growth! A little bit about me…I was born and raised in the cold tundra of Wisconsin and have lived in a few other states since then. I’m a UW-Madison alum (Go Badgers!) and earned my Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology in North Chicago. I have family and friends sprinkled across the U.S., so I try to travel to see them whenever I can. As a fun fact, I recently became a certified scuba diver, which was definitely a huge personal accomplishment for me.
Professionally, I have had over 13 years of experience providing psychotherapy, and I have received extensive training in evidence-based therapies that have been proven to create and maintain lasting change. I’m licensed in New York, Florida, and Wisconsin, but I can now see clients via telehealth in 40 states under the PSYPACT agreement. You can find a list of the current PSYPACT states here.
I look forward to speaking with you soon!
