Chelsey Fouts, LCSW

Chelsey Fouts is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), a professional license for clinical social work, who centers her practice on building a strong therapeutic connection so clients feel heard, understood, and valued. She focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and supporting clients to rebuild a sense of self-worth while developing practical skills to manage daily stressors and create meaningful change.

Her clinical work draws from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Solution-Focused approaches, and Psychodynamic therapy to tailor care to each person’s needs. Chelsey helps clients explore how past experiences shape current beliefs and behaviors, with particular experience processing trauma in youth, including childhood abuse.

Across nearly six years of practice, she has treated anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress with both young people and adults. She adopts a strengths-based, warm, and encouraging stance, meeting clients where they are while offering structure and guidance to try new ways of approaching challenges.

Chelsey works collaboratively to identify clear goals and step-by-step plans, monitoring progress and checking in to ensure clients feel they are moving forward. In initial sessions she gathers information about symptoms, stressors, supports, and priorities to build trust and a strong working relationship that supports therapeutic progress.
