Chelsey has five years of professional experience and holds counseling credentials in both North Carolina and South Carolina.

How her approaches guide online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful relationship. It helps people feel heard and shapes goals around what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical steps to change them. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and many everyday struggles. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing strong emotions and impulsivity; it can be helpful for mood swings and intense reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of starting therapy. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person’s goals and preferences. That process includes trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together over time.

Confirm the session formats before booking, since the biography does not list them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight or let someone choose an option that needs less bandwidth than video. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT, DBT, and client-centered work to remote sessions so people can practice skills between meetings and track progress over time.
