Chelsey Gilbert

Trauma Informed Bodyworker, Educator and Podcaster

Chelsey Gilbert is a licensed massage therapist of nearly 10 years, trauma-informed somatic bodyworker, and holistic wellness educator with a passion for helping others reconnect with their mind, body, and spirit. Inspired by her own healing journey and personal experience living with complex PTSD, Chelsey understands the importance of self-awareness, compassion, and creating safe spaces for healing and personal growth.

After graduating from Ivy Tech Community College in 2016 with an Associate of Applied Science in Therapeutic Massage, Chelsey continued expanding her knowledge through several courses in John F. Barnes Myofascial Release, Cross Mapping through the Somatic Coaching Academy, and additional education focused on supporting deeper healing and mind-body connection.

Her business Transformative Journeys Therapeutic Massage LLC DBA Transformative Wellness, was created with the intention of empowering others to navigate their own unique healing journeys. With physical practice locations in the North Indianapolis area and virtual services available, Chelsey offers an integrative, trauma-informed approach that encourages individuals to reconnect with themselves, cultivate body awareness, and rediscover their inner balance.

Her passion for education and accessible holistic support also inspired her to create the Empowered Healing Community, a space dedicated to providing resources, education, and meaningful connections that empower individuals to take an active role in their well-being. She also hosts a holistic wellness podcast, Transformative Talks, focused on education and awareness of holistic modalities.

Outside of her professional work, Chelsey enjoys spending time with her children, getting lost in the woods, and expressing her creativity in many forms. A lifelong learner, she is continually exploring new ways to grow, evolve, and deepen her understanding of herself and the world around her.
