About Chelette
Chelette McClendon is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and depression. She draws on practical methods to help clients build confidence, find motivation, and handle major life changes. Her approach is direct and respectful, aimed at making small changes that add up over time.
With five years of experience working in Texas, she meets people where they are and adapts sessions to individual needs.
Background and approach
Chelette uses conversational methods so people can talk through what matters most to them. Sessions often center on everyday problems and realistic steps forward. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen closely and shape goals around each person’s priorities.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that feed anxiety or depression. Motivational Interviewing helps people find the reasons they want to change and stick with those choices. Chelette also works with issues like relationship stress, family concerns, addiction, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, and caregiving strain.
She supports people facing chronic illness, end-of-life matters, and financial or career uncertainty. Her style is practical and values small, achievable goals. The first meetings focus on what feels most urgent and on building a plan you can follow.
Chelette offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging to fit different needs. She aims to make therapy understandable and useful for everyday life.

Online support
How evidence-based approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building goals that matter to each person. In online sessions this means the therapist mirrors concerns and helps you shape a plan that fits your life and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches practical techniques to change patterns that worsen anxiety or depression. These techniques transfer well to video or phone sessions where homework and skill practice can be reviewed between meetings.The therapist treats choosing an approach as a team process. She will talk with the client about goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan as progress is made. That collaborative process helps find the best fit for your needs and preferences over time.
Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for deeper conversations and seeing nonverbal cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits a break in the day. Live chat and text allow quick messages, ongoing support between meetings, or a way to keep working on goals without being on camera. These options give flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels while keeping focus on concrete steps and progress.
