About Chelsey
Chelsey Diaz is an LMSW - Licensed Master Social Worker practicing in Michigan with eight years of professional experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, depression, and life changes. She also works with issues related to trauma and abuse, ADHD, and relationship or family strains.
Chelsey often works with teens and young adults and brings attention to multicultural concerns, particularly within the Latinx community. She offers care in both English and Spanish. Her approach focuses on clear conversation and practical steps rather than clinical jargon.
Sessions are intended to be a place to talk through current problems and try small, measurable changes. She uses methods that help people identify unhelpful thoughts, set goals, and build skills for daily life. Work can include discussing family patterns, parenting challenges, and managing panic or intense worry.
She combines Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused techniques to keep sessions grounded and goal-oriented. Motivational Interviewing and Psychodynamic ideas may inform how she explores motivation and past influences on present behavior. The emphasis is on what feels workable for each person.
Chelsey aims to arrange times that fit into clients' schedules, including evenings and weekends. To begin, clients are asked to use the site’s matching tool and schedule an initial session. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what the person says to help them sort through feelings and choices. It is useful when someone needs a calm space to talk about stress, parenting problems, or identity concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and introduces practical exercises to reduce anxiety and manage panic. This approach is often used for worries, panic attacks, and low mood because it gives clear steps to practice between sessions.
Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change and stay engaged with goals. It can be helpful when someone feels stuck or unsure about making a different choice.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods to use, based on the person’s goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful in early sessions.
Confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time. Practically, this can mean scheduling sessions in the evening or weekend to match other commitments while focusing on the same therapeutic steps used in face-to-face work.
