About Chelsey

She takes a practical, person-centered approach. Sessions focus on identifying strengths and building useful skills.
Background and approach
Chelsey uses clear, goal-oriented methods so people leave with steps they can try between sessions. Chelsey trained in social work with a Master of Social Work degree that emphasized family studies and interpersonal trauma. Since then she has practiced for several years helping people manage painful experiences and everyday pressures.
Her background includes attention to how family patterns and culture shape responses to stress. In therapy she blends problem-focused tools and short-term strategies with opportunities to explore deeper patterns. That means working on concrete changes like sleep routines or communication habits alongside understanding past influences.
Her style is collaborative and straightforward. Clients can expect a calm, respectful space to tell their story and try new ways of coping. Chelsey aims to support durable changes by pairing practical techniques with empathy and realistic plans for growth.
How CBT and Solution-Focused Work Online
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. In practice this often means identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors, which can reduce anxiety, panic, and depression symptoms and improve sleep and coping skills.Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on current strengths and small, practical changes. Sessions tend to set short-term goals and track what is already working, which can be helpful for relationship issues, parenting challenges, and coping with life transitions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Chelsey will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean using CBT tools some weeks and solution-focused steps in others, depending on what the client needs.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations for deeper work, phone sessions can fit into a busy day or when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging can provide quick check-ins or support between sessions. These options make it easier to maintain consistent care while balancing family, work, and other responsibilities.
