About Chelsey
Chelsey Diaz is a Licensed Master Social Worker with eight years of clinical experience based in Michigan. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, depression, and big life changes. She speaks English and Spanish and aims to make first steps feel manageable for someone who is worried or overwhelmed.
Chelsey spends time listening closely so a person feels heard before trying new tools. She offers practical ways to handle daily stress and parenting strain.
Background and approach
Sessions often focus on small, clear steps that fit into a busy life. Her work includes attention to multicultural issues, particularly within the Latinx community. She also supports people dealing with trauma, grief, anger, and self-esteem struggles.
Additional focus areas include ADHD, postpartum depression, and immigration-related stress. Chelsey uses a mix of approaches to match each person's needs. She draws on client-centered methods to follow the client's lead, cognitive behavioral ideas to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, and solution-focused strategies to set concrete goals.
She aims for sessions that feel collaborative and practical. Appointments are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Chelsey works to schedule evenings and weekends when possible.

Approaches and what online sessions look like
Chelsey uses client-centered work that focuses on the person's own goals and priorities. This approach means the therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead to decide what to address and when.She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT can be useful for anxiety, panic, mood struggles, and day-to-day stress by giving clear tools to practice between sessions.
Finding the right approach is a joint process. Chelsey will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has worked or not worked before. Together they choose strategies and adjust them as progress and needs change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when needed, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a camera is not preferred. Live chat and messaging offer brief check-ins, quick problem-solving, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different life demands.
