About Chelsea

Dr. Chelsea Bennett is a licensed social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and addiction. She also supports concerns around intimacy, parenting, self-esteem, career challenges, and identity-related issues.

She brings a practical, steady approach to difficult moments. She keeps sessions straightforward and focused. Conversations are aimed at identifying what matters to the client and small, doable steps forward.

Techniques come from several approaches including Gottman Method, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy.

Background and approach

These tools are used to teach skills for handling emotions, improving communication, and changing patterns that cause pain. With six years of experience and credentials as an LISW and LCSW, she has worked in settings that addressed trauma, family concerns, and complex life transitions. That background informs a calm, solutions-oriented style in session.

Clients can expect emotional support paired with clear strategies. Sessions address both immediate problems and longer-term goals. Practical topics might include coping with loss, managing impulsivity, repairing trust after infidelity, or navigating adoption and blended family issues.

She also assists people dealing with first responder stress, veteran and armed forces issues, and career-related questions. Dr. Bennett offers flexible session types to match daily life, and accepts international clients who speak English.

She encourages people to take the first step and reach out when they are ready to begin work on change.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches for online work

Dr. Bennett uses the Gottman Method to help people improve communication patterns and reduce conflict in close relationships; this approach focuses on concrete skills for listening, repair, and managing emotional triggers. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, is used to help clients clarify values and commit to behaviors that align with what matters, which can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and life-purpose questions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is another common tool she uses to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors that reduce symptoms. Together these approaches offer both short-term strategies and longer-term changes in thinking and action. The therapist works collaboratively with each person to choose what fits best for their situation and goals.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy lives or varied schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and step-by-step skill practice. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when being on camera is difficult. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, ongoing encouragement, or when a shorter, focused exchange fits a work break or different time zones.
