Chancey Fort, LPC

Chancey Fort is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Mississippi. She has 18 years of counseling experience and helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship struggles, and compassion fatigue.

Her approach is straightforward and practical. Sessions focus on identifying patterns that cause distress and learning tools to change them. Chancey blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with acceptance- and mindfulness-based ideas to help people shift thoughts and actions that get in the way of daily life.

She also uses client-centered methods to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space. That means conversations follow what matters most to the person in the room and build on individual strengths. When communication or attachment issues come up, she works on concrete skills for clearer interactions and healthier boundaries.

Chancey brings experience from school settings and community mental health into her work. She emphasizes real-world strategies that fit a client's day-to-day routine, such as short behavioral experiments, values-based goals, and simple mindfulness practices. The focus is on useful changes rather than abstract theory.

People who meet with her can expect a collaborative process. Together they set goals, try new ways of coping, and track progress over time. The aim is steady improvement in mood, stress management, and relationships.

How therapy approaches work online

Chancey commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in her online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress. ACT teaches skills to notice difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match personal values, which can help with mood and life purpose struggles.

She also practices a client-centered way of working that keeps the conversation focused on the person's priorities and strengths. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process - she will talk with each person about goals, try methods, and adjust the plan based on what is most useful and comfortable.

Online therapy with her is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video allows face-to-face interaction for skills practice and feedback. Phone sessions can fit into a busy schedule or use less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for shorter check-ins, brief coping strategies, and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life while trying approaches that match individual needs.
