How Chelsea’s approaches work in online therapy

Many sessions use cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT focuses on small experiments and practical skills, which translate well to video or messaging formats and can help with anxiety, depression, and social fears.

Chelsea also uses a person-centered approach that puts the client's goals first. That means sessions are shaped by what the person wants to change and what feels most useful to them. Mindfulness techniques are woven in to teach breathing, grounding, and moment-to-moment awareness skills that reduce overwhelm.

Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. Chelsea will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. Together they decide which approach to try and adjust it as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Video is useful for in-depth work and seeing nonverbal cues, phone can be a simpler option with lower bandwidth, and chat or messaging can fit quick check-ins or brief skill practice. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and keep momentum between appointments.
