She also uses a candid tone when someone needs direction and mixes in humor to keep difficult work bearable. People come to her for help with parenting stress, grief, career changes, compassion fatigue, and healing from past abuse.

She supports goal-setting around self-esteem, anger management, and coping with life transitions. Her practice emphasizes practical tools that can be applied between sessions. LaChelle offers several ways to meet, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.

Practical therapy approaches and how they work online

LaChelle uses evidence-based techniques that focus on clear actions and measurable progress. One approach emphasizes changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through step-by-step practice and short assignments between sessions, which helps with anxiety, depression, and stress. Another approach centers on acceptance and building skills to live with difficult feelings while moving toward valued goals, which can be useful for trauma recovery and coping with life changes.

Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your situation, goals, and preferences in early sessions and then adapt the plan as you go. That way you can try methods that fit your needs and adjust if something doesn’t feel helpful.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls work like in-person meetings when you prefer face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and text are useful for quick check-ins, short coaching, or when writing feels easier than talking. These options make it simpler to keep regular appointments and apply skills consistently between meetings.
