Chelsea Haakmeester Sybrandt

Hello! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in San Diego and work with individuals and couples to provide a holistic, collaborative approach to the treatment of relational issues, trauma, mood and anxiety disorders and grief and loss. I have specialized training and expertise to aid in developing a secure attachment to your child(ren) or another adult, support growth and healing from infertility, pregnancy loss and perinatal mood or anxiety disorders, and can help you navigate the transition into parenthood.

Growing up in San Diego, I was fortunate to complete my undergrad at UC San Diego and Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy at the University of San Diego. For the 8 years following, I worked alongside OBGYNs, Physicians and Midwives providing therapy to women and couples receiving their prenatal and postpartum care at UC San Diego Hospital. Since transitioning into private practice, I have broadened my focus to support families in all stages. I am a Certified Fair Play Method Facilitator trained to promote equity at home and unburden the invisible load that many women carry. I also hold a certificate in Integrative Regulation Therapy from Newton Center of Affect Regulation, and EMDR from  the EMDR Institute Inc.
