Healing Hearts. Changing Lives.
Guiding You Toward Healing, Growth, and Lasting Well-Being
At Chapin & Russell Associates, we are more than a counseling center, we are a wellness partner dedicated to helping people live better, healthier, and more meaningful lives. Founded by Dr. Ted Chapin and Dr. Lori Russell-Chapin, our team blends decades of clinical expertise with innovative therapeutic approaches to serve the emotional, mental, and neurological needs of our clients.
We believe counseling is a collaboration built on respect, understanding, and proven methods. Whether through traditional talk therapy, personal coaching, or advanced neurotherapy, our mission remains the same: To help you grow stronger from the inside out.

The Difference Genuine Care Makes
At Chapin & Russell Associates, genuine care is at the heart of everything we do. Our team combines professional expertise with real compassion to help people work through challenges and create meaningful, lasting change.
Counseling works, and the research proves it. The American Psychological Association reports that more than 80% of those who engage in therapy experience stronger mental health than those who do not, with results that often last longer than medication alone.
Our focus is on you, your goals, your pace, and your well-being. Every session is tailored to your individual needs, using proven methods that strengthen the mind, support emotional balance, and help you move forward with confidence. Whether you’re facing stress, loss, anxiety, or relationship struggles, we’re here to help you regain clarity and restore a sense of peace in your life.
Take the first step, and begin your journey toward lasting positive change.
We offer thoughtful, personalized care that meets you where you are from counseling and coaching to advanced neurotherapy.

Setting Goals: During this initial session, you and your counselor will discuss your needs and work together to establish your treatment plan goals.
