About Chelsey

Chelsey Diaz is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) in Michigan with eight years of professional experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, depression, and life changes. Sessions are conducted in English and Spanish.

Chelsey often supports clients facing relationship and family issues, including blended family issues and communication problems. She also works with people dealing with trauma and abuse, ADHD, anger, and self-esteem struggles. Her background includes attention to multicultural concerns and immigration-related stress within Latinx communities.

Her style is direct and person-centered. Chelsey uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen and explore what matters most to each person. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thinking and to try practical changes between sessions.

In sessions she focuses on clear goals and small steps. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused methods help when someone wants to change habits or solve a specific problem. Psychodynamic ideas may be used to look at repeating patterns that affect current relationships.

She offers evening and weekend appointments and works with clients to find times that fit both schedules. The subscription-based payment structure can be canceled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule their first session.

How her approaches work in online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. Online sessions using this approach let the therapist follow the client’s lead and clarify goals in straightforward conversation.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is action-oriented. It breaks down unhelpful thoughts and behaviors into steps and sets tasks between appointments. That can help with anxiety, panic attacks, depression, and parenting stress by giving clear practices to try at home.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Chelsey works collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person's goals and preferences. She checks in about what is working and adjusts methods as needed so the plan stays practical and relevant.

Session formats are not listed in the original profile, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives by reducing travel time, allowing evening or weekend scheduling, or offering shorter check-ins when needed. They also make it possible to continue work on communication, blended household routines, and coping strategies from wherever an individual is able to connect.
