Chelsey Flohe, LCSW

Chelsey Flohe is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 22 years of experience. She is licensed in California and Virginia and practices from Virginia. She commonly helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and coping with life changes, including concerns that arise in blended family households.

She spent much of her career in civilian, military, and hospital settings. That background includes work as a transplant social worker and roles supporting people with chronic illness. Those experiences shaped her interest in health inequities, social justice, and advocacy for caregivers and older adults.

In sessions she talks directly about what is getting in the way of daily life. She uses clear, goal-oriented techniques and challenges unhelpful patterns. This can include looking at thoughts and behaviors, setting small achievable goals, and identifying practical steps forward.

Counseling with her often includes problem-solving around specific stressors. That may mean addressing burnout, adjusting to medical changes, coping after loss, or navigating new household roles in a blended family. She also works with people dealing with food and body image issues, domestic violence effects, and other trauma-related concerns.

Chelsey draws on methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy. She aims to work collaboratively to set clear goals and measure progress. To get started, the site’s matching process and a first session are the next steps.
