Chelsey Flohe, LCSW

Chelsey Flohe is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 22 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people who are coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and life changes. She brings a direct and supportive approach and aims to help clients take practical steps forward.

She has worked in civilian, military, and hospital settings, and she is a female veteran. Her background includes work as a transplant social worker, and that experience shaped her interest in supporting people with chronic illness and caregiver stress. She is also attentive to issues of health inequity and social justice.

In sessions she balances support with challenge. She will listen to how life has been difficult and then help set realistic goals. She uses straightforward methods to identify patterns, try new strategies, and build coping skills that fit daily life.

Her work often involves discussing grief, mood changes, and practical problems linked to illness or caregiving. She also addresses concerns like body image, eating-related issues, blended family stress, and challenges arising from first responder or veteran experiences.

Chelsey encourages people to take an active role in therapy. She helps clients name priorities, test small changes, and track what works. She welcomes questions about how therapy will proceed and what to expect.

Approaches used in online sessions and how they help

Chelsey uses methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy to guide online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing different behaviors to ease anxiety and low mood. Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people process difficult memories and reduce how much those memories get in the way of daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chelsey collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She will explain options, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, avoid travel time, and check in during workday breaks. It also allows follow-up conversations that keep momentum between visits and supports people managing chronic illness, caregiver duties, or grief who need flexible timing.
