She offers a wealth of experience across diverse populations and socioeconomic backgrounds, with a career that began in 2012 as a Family Support Specialist.

Her Approach

Chey-Anne Wilson, MS, is a Licensed Independent Marriage & Family Therapist who helps individuals (16+), couples, and families find clarity, connection, and healing. She specializes in relationship conflict, attachment wounds, infidelity recovery, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. Her services include ongoing therapy as well as high-impact formats like 3-hour Mini Intensives and the Couples Crisis Intensive, designed for clients seeking faster progress in critical moments.

 

Her approach is trauma-informed, emotion-centered, and collaborative. By integrating attachment theory, CBT, EFT, and narrative techniques, Chey-Anne helps clients build coping strategies, improve communication, and create lasting change. She values inclusivity and cultural sensitivity, with a special commitment to supporting Black couples, women, teens, and families from diverse backgrounds.

 

Chey-Anne believes that every client deserves compassionate, high-quality care. Whether you’re an individual working through anxiety or depression, a couple seeking to rebuild trust, or a family navigating conflict, she provides a safe and supportive space to grow. Her mission is to empower clients to cultivate healthier relationships, stronger self-awareness, and emotional resilience.

 

Therapist and Relationship Strategist

Beyond her clinical role, Chey-Anne also serves as a Relationship Strategist & Consultant, extending her expertise beyond the traditional therapy room. In this capacity, she provides individuals, couples, and families with forward-focused guidance, helping them identify relationship patterns, strengthen communication, and create strategies for lasting change. This allows her to work with clients both in Ohio (as a therapist) and nationwide (as a strategist/consultant).

 

This dual lens — therapeutic depth and strategic action — makes her uniquely positioned to support clients who want not only to heal, but also to transform the way they love, live, and connect.

 

Beyond the Work

 

Chey-Anne enjoys reading, good food, tv/music/movies, hip-hop cardio, yoga, and spending quality time with family, friends, and her furbaby.
