About Chelsea

Dr. Chelsea Bennett helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and relationship and intimacy concerns. She supports clients facing trauma and abuse, addictions, parenting strain, career questions, and issues around self-esteem and anger.

Dr. Bennett also works with people dealing with adoption and foster care challenges, blended family dynamics, infidelity, and problems tied to military or first responder experiences. She keeps sessions straightforward and direct.

Conversations focus on what matters most right now and on small steps that make daily life easier.

Background and approach

She listens for patterns that cause pain and looks for practical ways to change them. Her background includes six years in clinical practice and licensure as an Ohio LISW and an Indiana LCSW. That experience includes helping people who have faced domestic violence, divorce, family of origin problems, and isolation or loneliness.

She brings experience supporting people wrestling with bipolar symptoms and impulsivity as well. In therapy she draws on approaches like cognitive behavioral methods to challenge unhelpful thoughts, acceptance and commitment strategies to build values-based action, and solution-focused techniques to set clear goals. For relationship work she uses ideas from the Gottman Method to improve communication and reduce conflict.

Sessions move at a practical pace. Dr. Bennett aims to make tools you can use between meetings.

She encourages clients to try small experiments, notice what changes, and adjust the plan based on results.

Online support

How these approaches can work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and then choose actions that fit their values; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and life-direction questions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns; it often helps with anxiety, mood problems, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy adds skills for managing strong emotions and impulsive behavior and can be helpful for mood instability and anger.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and try methods that fit your needs. Treatment plans are adjusted based on what helps you make steady progress, so clients and therapist collaborate on which tools to use.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skills practice, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat and messaging let you check in between meetings and get brief support, and text-based options are handy for short updates or coaching-style exchanges. These options aim to make therapy flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
