Trauma-Informed Virtual Therapy in Fort Collins CO
Chelsea Frank, LPCC
Trauma Therapy and Nervous System Healing
Based in Fort Collins, Colorado, I offer virtual trauma-informed therapy to adults and couples across the state, wherever you are.
You may be the one others rely on-the family caretaker, the one who learned to put others first, the thoughtful partner, the helper at work-yet inside feel chronically tense, emotionally overextended, or quietly lost. Maybe you learned early to stay small, stay useful, or stay agreeable to survive. Perhaps you’re healing from narcissistic or emotionally abusive relationships, religious or generational trauma, or the slow erosion of self that can happen in long‑term stress.
Healing here is about remembering who you were before survival became your full‑time job.
Relationship Counseling and Identity Transitions
- Complex childhood trauma (C‑PTSD) or long‑standing attachment wounds
- Growing up as the family emotional caretaker
- Aftereffects of narcissistic, emotionally abusive, or trauma‑bonded relationships
- Chronic people‑pleasing, hyper‑responsibility, or difficulty resting or saying no
- Divorce, separation, or high‑conflict co‑parenting dynamics
- Nervous system overwhelm, shutdown, or persistent hyper‑vigilance
- Religious or spiritual trauma; questioning faith, identity, or meaning
- Wanting therapy that includes your body, values, and inner life-not just insight
- Feeling “too sensitive,” too deep, or too much in a world that rewards numbness
If this resonates, nothing is wrong with you. Your system adapted brilliantly to what it was given. Therapy can help you gently shift from protection into presence.
Somatic and Attachment-Based Therapy
Our work is rooted in the understanding that lasting change happens through felt safety, attuned connection, and the body, not insight alone. Together, we slow the process enough for patterns to reveal themselves, for emotions to move through rather than overwhelm, and for your inner authority to come back online without losing your sense of humor or humanity in the process.
This is therapy for people who want:
- Depth without pressure
- Room for humor, lightness, and being fully human
- Vulnerability without judgment
- Spiritual and psychological integration without rigid beliefs or imposed belief systems
- Transformation without abandoning themselves

Working with Chelsea has been a tremendously supportive and warm experience. She’s a calming presence with a thoughtful and steady approach that allowed me to open up and work with some issues from my past that I had been struggling with.
