About Chelsey

Chelsey Lee is a licensed counselor practicing in North Carolina who supports people coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem struggles, mood disorders, and ADHD.

Background and approach

With five years of professional experience and licenses listed as LPC and LCMHC, she draws on a range of proven methods to help clients navigate life changes, impulsivity, and issues like depression or bipolar mood concerns. She also brings attention to topics such as body image, relationship difficulties, gender dysphoria, and end-of-life matters when they arise in therapy.

Chelsey emphasizes a warm, nondirective stance that invites clients to share their thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment. Her work blends client-centered listening with practical strategies from cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior therapies, plus mindfulness and solution-focused techniques to build coping skills and clarify goals.

She encourages those taking the first step toward support and works collaboratively to tailor sessions to each person's needs and preferences.

Approaches that translate well to online care

Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and responding to each person's experience, creating space for them to set the pace and priorities of treatment. It helps people feel heard and understood while building a collaborative path forward. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms such as anxiety or depression; it is practical and skills-oriented, making it well suited to structured online sessions. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) teaches skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be practiced and reinforced through remote exercises and coaching.

Finding the right blend of methods is part of the therapeutic process. Chelsey works together with clients to determine which approaches best match their goals, symptoms, and personal preferences, adjusting strategies over time so the work remains relevant and effective for each person.

Online therapy here is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access consistent care without major travel, support regular practice of skills between sessions, and allow therapy to fit into busy lives while maintaining engagement with a licensed professional.
