Hi! I’m Chelsea Steck, owner and therapist of Down To Earth Counseling, located in Durango, Colorado. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC) and provide in-person therapy in Durango and telehealth therapy to anyone in Colorado. I have 10 years experience in the social work field and am truly passionate about helping people through difficult times. I have a Master’s Degree in Social Work from University of Denver.

My professional experience includes working at a community mental health center, Intensive Outpatient Program for Substance Use Disorders, a county jail, a college counseling center, a domestic violence shelter, and disaster relief.

My clients have told me they like working with me because I am down-to-earth (hence the name!), easy to talk to, knowledgeable, and genuinely care. I tailor sessions to match my client’s personality, needs, and interests. I do my best to make therapy comfortable, worth your time, and even fun! Swearing is welcome in our sessions.

While I am originally from Illinois, I have lived in Colorado since 2013. Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, kayaking, camping, dancing, cooking, music, and spending time with friends and family.
