Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
Hi there, I’m Chelsey! I believe the most important aspect of successful therapy is the connection you have with your therapist. My name is Chelsey Fouts and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I want you to feel heard, understood, and valued in our therapeutic relationship.
My approach is noticing negative thought patterns and challenging you to believe in your worth. I will help you navigate daily stressors by gaining skills to achieve positive change in your life. I help you to understand how your past experiences influence your present behavior/beliefs. I utilize concepts from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TFCBT), Solution Focused, and Psychodynamic therapy.
Most recently my background has been a focus on processing trauma with youth, specifically childhood abuse. I have years of experience treating anxiety, depression, and PTSD with both youth and adults.
My clients would describe me as warm, encouraging, and strengths-based. I meet you where you are and encourage you to share what is most impacting you. I provide guidance and structure to offer you new ways of approaching your challenges.
I have been practicing as a therapist for almost six years. I have always viewed people as the most integral part of our world and I am fascinated by how one’s mind works. What continues to drive my work as a therapist is seeing the positive shift in a client’s view of themselves, feeling more confident in their relationships, and overall feeling happier. I view it as a privilege to have a client share their vulnerabilities with me and trust in the process.
I want to hear from you what your goals are and how you feel therapy will improve your well-being. I work in a collaborative approach with you to help you identify your goals and steps to achieve these goals. I monitor your progress and check in with you to determine if you feel you are making progress.
During our first session, I will spend time learning about what led you to want to participate in therapy and how you have been recently feeling/coping. I will ask questions to better understand your symptoms, stressors, interests, family/friends, and anything you feel is important to know about you. My primary goal is to work toward establishing a connection with you to gain your trust.

Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly help. For a range of common concerns – including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and life transitions – online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions for most situations.
One major benefit of remote care is flexibility. People can connect with therapists in the way that fits their life and comfort level, choosing video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to incorporate therapy into a busy schedule.
Sessions are provided by licensed professionals, and if someone decides they would prefer a different clinician they can switch therapists at any time. For many individuals, online therapy offers an accessible, evidence-informed option to pursue support for everyday concerns and ongoing mental health needs.
