About Honesty Works

Hello and welcome. My name is Chelsea and I’m glad you’re here. Below you’ll find a bit about my business offerings. But first, let me tell you why I started this business.

I have been on a recovery mission for 28 years. I knew, deep in my heart, that I could heal myself. I knew that pills and therapy were not enough. I knew I could heal to the point where I experienced joy and awe and safety, where my energy stayed steady and stayed mine throughout the day.

I’ve tried just about everything there is to try to heal my deep wounding. Along the way I stumbled upon several truths that have enabled me to rest and recover. I delight in being able to spread this knowledge to other healing people. My thinking: Why keep to myself what will help someone move forward in their healing by leaps and bounds?

Honesty-Works focuses on abuse prevention and recovery for grieving people, because I was a child of an abusive family. Psychological and emotional abuse, financial abuse, and systemic, years-long sexual abuse took a toll on all aspects of my energy. I wasn’t able to be myself—for years, I didn’t know who I was. Being present, in my body, felt terrifying to me.

I have training in Grief Recovery, Coaching, Somatic Re-Integration and Awareness and working with energy to heal all aspects of the mind, body and spirit. I am a master teacher, coach and massage therapist.

The foundational truths of recovery and my company:

• Honesty is always the best policy

• Everyone heals in their own time

• Healing can be a joyful process

• Self love and acceptance are the only way to heal deep wounds

• Shadow work is essential

• We all have the capacity to heal

• There are tools that help everyone, no matter where they are in their healing journey, to access their own higher wisdom

• We are all important and need to treat ourselves with great kindness

• Love truly does heal

• and finally: Spirit/God/Nature/whatever you recognize as a higher power, is benevolent, wants the best for all beings, and is rooting for us to advance in our healing journeys.

What I Do

At Honesty Works, I offer a range of services aimed at raising awareness, providing education, and offering support to individuals and communities:
