About Chelsey

Chelsey Diaz is a Michigan-based licensed master social worker (LMSW) who helps people cope with stress, anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, and pregnancy and childbirth‑related concerns. She works in English and Spanish and focuses on practical support for people facing life changes, postpartum concerns, and relationship or family tensions.

Chelsey draws on eight years of clinical experience to keep sessions straightforward and useful. She creates a calm space where people can talk through what matters most without feeling judged. Sessions often focus on immediate problems and small steps clients can try between meetings.

Her approach blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral techniques and solution-focused strategies. That means Chelsey listens first, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns, and then co-creates simple, realistic goals and actions. Motivational interviewing and psychodynamic ideas may also inform the conversation when helpful.

She has particular experience with multicultural and Latinx community concerns, and with teens and young adults. Chelsey also supports people struggling with trauma, ADHD, eating issues, anger, self‑esteem, and compassion fatigue.

Chelsey offers evening and weekend sessions and works with clients to schedule times that fit both calendars. Before booking, readers should confirm current session formats and availability.

How Chelsey’s approaches guide online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects feelings, and helps people clarify what they want to change, which is useful for pregnancy, parenting, and life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. It helps someone notice unhelpful thinking patterns, test different behaviors, and try small changes that can reduce anxiety and depression symptoms.

Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or unsure about change. It uses questions and reflection to build motivation and plan realistic next steps for areas like postpartum self-care or managing stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chelsey collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and comfort level, adjusting strategies over time as needs evolve.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how meetings are offered. Chelsey offers evening and weekend sessions and works with clients to set accommodating times that fit both calendars. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. If you prefer in-person options or specific online formats, confirm those details when you schedule.
