Their strength comes from a broad, interconnected root system that overlaps and intertwines with nearby palms, creating flexibility, stability, and support when conditions become challenging. At Sabal Palm Psychology, this serves as a reminder that healing and growth are rarely solitary endeavors. We weather life's difficulties not through sheer force of will alone, but through the supportive foundations we build, and therapy is a space to strengthen those foundations. https://www.sabalpalmpsychology.com/contact-us daily 0.75 2022-03-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62227748796afa6b7ec504db/1648238786217-QCVWGW52W8B47ATEY8VF/unsplash-image-0QC6kvQdnZU.jpg Contact Us - Call today to schedule your first appointment or fill out the contact form below.

I am Dr. Chelsea Wilcocks, the founder of Sabal Palm Psychology and I am so happy you are here. I am committed to providing client-centered, culturally competent services and ensure you are provided with quality care and evidence-based psychotherapy. Before diving into the deep end, I take the time to build rapport and trust, knowing the therapeutic alliance is so important in the therapy process. I meet each client where they are and tailor therapy to their interests and strengths to make growing and learning enjoyable and fun. Areas of Expertise I am a licensed clinical psychologist (PY 11275), specializing in pediatric health psychology. I specialize in working with children, teens, and young adults diagnosed with chronic illness, such as diabetes, cancer, transplant, and GI issues, as well as those who are striving to make healthy lifestyle changes. I have extensive clinical experiences working with children with various chronic conditions and utilize interventions to improve adherence, adjustment, coping, post-surgical outcomes, and family functioning and decrease high-risk health behaviors. I provide evidence-based psychotherapeutic interventions (e.g., Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) while assessing specific client needs and tailoring treatment accordingly. I also offer therapy for families of youth diagnosed with a wide range of emotional and behavioral difficulties with and without medical diagnoses. Education I graduated from Nova Southeastern University’s APA-accredited clinical psychology doctoral program and completed my APA-accredited psychology internship at Broward Health Medical Center/Salah Foundation Children’s Hospital. I also completed a clinical postdoctoral fellowship in pediatric psychology at Nemours Children’s Hospital Delaware with an emphasis on Adherence within Interdisciplinary Diabetes and Weight Management Clinics. Prior, I earned my Bachelor’s degree from the University of Central Florida (Go Knights!). Publications Wilcocks, C.P., Enlow, P., Wasserman, R., Wysocki, T., Lee, J., Aroian, K., & Pierce, J.
