About Chelsey
Chelsey Fleishman is an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) with seven years of clinical experience in Idaho. She lists stress, anxiety, self esteem, depression, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep issues, parenting, career matters, and coping with life changes among the areas she addresses.
Chelsey trained at the University of Denver, earning a Master of Social Work with a concentration in Family Studies and Interpersonal Trauma Studies. She gained her LCSW in 2018 and has layered practice experience since then. Her background includes work related to adoption and foster care, domestic violence, postpartum depression, and other family-centered concerns.
In sessions she uses practical, goal-oriented methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice patterns in thinking and behavior that affect mood and coping. Solution-Focused Therapy supports short-term goal work and building on strengths people already have.
She pays attention to how culture, family history, and past trauma shape current reactions. Conversations are used to identify manageable steps. Chelsey helps people build new strategies for handling conflict, parenting stress, grief, and life transitions.
Her approach is person-centered and adaptable. That means the work changes based on what a person needs and what proves useful. People looking for support with communication problems, fertility or pregnancy issues, codependency, or recovery after infidelity may find her background relevant.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
CBT helps people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In short sessions this can mean identifying one thought pattern to test, trying a new behavior between meetings, and reviewing what changed. It suits worries, panic, low mood, and sleep problems.Solution-Focused Therapy focuses on goals and small practical steps. Sessions often aim to identify what already works and to repeat it more often. This approach can be helpful for parenting stress, relationship communication, and managing life changes.
Choosing a method is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about needs, goals, and preferences and then try approaches that fit. Progress is reviewed, and the plan can be adjusted as needed so sessions stay focused on usable changes.
The original profile does not list which online formats are used, so confirm the available session types before booking. Online options can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, shorten check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. They can also allow for phone-first contact if bandwidth or camera use is an issue, but check which formats this therapist currently offers before scheduling.
