About Chelsey
Chelsey Fleishman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with seven years of experience based in Idaho. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep problems, parenting challenges, career questions, and life transitions.
She trained in social work with a focus on family studies and interpersonal trauma. Her approach is practical and person-centered. She listens for patterns in thinking and behavior and looks for small, testable changes clients can try between sessions.
Chelsey uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to structure sessions. That means she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, test assumptions, and build alternative habits. She also identifies short-term goals and practical steps that lead to quick, measurable change.
She pays attention to how culture, family history, and past trauma affect coping. Sessions include skills practice, problem solving, and review of what worked or didn’t work. The focus is on clear, doable strategies rather than long lectures.
People who come to her often want a mix of short-term problem solving and deeper work on relationship or trauma-related patterns. Chelsey supports parents dealing with adoption and foster care issues, people facing fertility or pregnancy concerns, those coping with loss, and people recovering from domestic violence or military-related issues. She offers sessions in English and works from her Idaho practice.
How Chelsey’s approaches translate to online sessions
Online sessions with Chelsey draw on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and acting to reduce anxiety or mood symptoms. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on specific goals and small steps that move toward those goals, which can be helpful for short-term problems like sleep, panic, or immediate relationship issues.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chelsey will review your needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. This is collaborative - you and she decide together what to prioritize and how to measure progress.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, save commuting time, allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand, and let people participate without being on camera if that helps. Licensed professionals can still use structured CBT worksheets, goal setting, and between-session practice in remote appointments to keep progress moving forward.
