Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. Client‑Centered methods keep sessions focused on the person's priorities and pace. Sessions aim to build coping skills, emotion regulation, and stronger self‑understanding.
Chelsea also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy strategies for managing intense emotions and Emotionally‑Focused Therapy ideas when stronger emotional connection and processing are needed. The result is a flexible plan that changes as a person makes progress. Chelsea works with adults on a range of concerns including depression, ADHD, anger, compassion fatigue, and trauma and abuse.
She also supports people facing family of origin issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and life transitions. Her practice uses a mix of video calls, phone, live chat, and text messaging so sessions can fit into busy schedules. Chelsea holds the Tennessee psychologist credential TN Psychologist 3065 and practices from Tennessee, offering services in English.
Online approaches that fit your life
Chelsea often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) which helps people notice difficult thoughts and values and then take small steps toward a meaningful life. ACT can help when anxiety or avoidance get in the way of living the way someone wants.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify patterns of thinking that worsen mood or sleep, and to try different behaviors that produce better outcomes. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and sleep difficulties. Chelsea blends Client‑Centered techniques to keep sessions focused on each person's priorities and pace.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has worked or not worked before, and then adjust methods over time. Clients are involved in choosing tools and tracking progress so the plan stays relevant.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people connect face to face from different locations. Phone sessions can be helpful when bandwidth is limited or a camera isn’t wanted. Live chat and text messaging allow brief check‑ins, coaching between sessions, or a shorter format when a full session is not feasible. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, and travel schedules.
