I became a therapist to help people suffer less and grow more. I believe that therapy is a journey and that just as you wish to move past your pain, your pain has a meaning. Our goal is not to get you back to who you were before your issues began, but to integrate the lessons life is offering you through this challenging time. I've worked in private practice, a mental health jail, a high-needs public clinic and in people's homes; I've exposed myself to a variety of human challenges and triumphs. Over a decade of practice, I've learned to have space for people's processes, to be a safe space as a container, to remain grounded in my listening and to be authentic in my practice. I often use a spiritual approach in treatment -- not of any religion, but in the sense that a deeper, more meaningful and integrated you seeks to come forth. This approach has been fruitful for people of all beliefs, including atheists. I believe your life has a meaning, and that you are it. I only do teletherapy via video - no messaging or phone calls. I also need to know the basics of your case and your needs before agreeing to beginning treatment, even if the algorithm matches us. This is to ensure I am a good clinical fit for you, and can responsibly and compassionately support you in therapy. Finally, I write about therapy at https://medium.com/@myartman and https://medium.com/@myartman/membership Thank you. Mitch

Welcome and congratulations on taking this step. I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist in California and have been working in the counseling field for close to 20 years. Prior to my counseling career I was an International Montessori Teacher for more than a decade. I am originally from Austria and moved to California 25 years ago. I have also worked a great deal in animal assisted therapy including Equine Therapy and am strong believer that animals provide meaningful emotional support. My training is deeply rooted in attachment theory and I have an existential-humanistic approach to life, which means I would like to support you in the present moment with interventions that work for you "right now" and potentially explore life patterns that are keeping you from reaching your full potential. My clients tell me that I have a down to earth approach, direct but warm and with concrete goals to lessen your symptoms. I believe in treating people with dignity, respect and compassion and am not a big believer in stigmatizing labels. My approach includes a variety of counseling styles such as cognitive-behavioral, humanistic and psychodynamic interventions and I will tailor your treatment plan to your unique specific needs. If you think we could be a good fit - connect with me and we will find out. I look forward to working with you

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York with over 10 years of experience working as a Social Worker, psychotherapist, Social work supervisor, and life coach. I have worked in several different settings including foster care, a group residence, a domestic violence shelter, schools, an assisted living home, outpatient mental health clinics as well as private practice. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns and personal goals. I enjoy being able to work with people who are desiring to identify their purpose, build their self esteem and confidence, and learn more about themselves throughout the process. My counseling style is eclectic, engaging and interactive. I believe that every person deserves to have someone that they can talk to, gain insight from and connect with that will not interfere with their daily living. Family and friends are great supports and often times will provide what they think we want them to provide and not what we really want or what really need. I like to create personal and professional goals with individuals based on their interests, opinions, and skills not based on other people's opinions of them. I often will use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Rational Emotive Therapy with a humanistic and solution focused approach. Everyone benefits from being able to have a coach, a therapist, someone on their side. I would love to be able to work with you and assist you in being the best version of yourself.

Hi there, I'm Chelsey! I believe the most important aspect of successful therapy is the connection you have with your therapist. My name is Chelsey Fouts and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I want you to feel heard, understood, and valued in our therapeutic relationship. My approach is noticing negative thought patterns and challenging you to believe in your worth. I will help you navigate daily stressors by gaining skills to achieve positive change in your life. I help you to understand how your past experiences influence your present behavior/beliefs. I utilize concepts from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TFCBT), Solution Focused, and Psychodynamic therapy. Most recently my background has been a focus on processing trauma with youth, specifically childhood abuse. I have years of experience treating anxiety, depression, and PTSD with both youth and adults. My clients would describe me as warm, encouraging, and strengths-based. I meet you where you are and encourage you to share what is most impacting you. I provide guidance and structure to offer you new ways of approaching your challenges. I have been practicing as a therapist for almost six years. I have always viewed people as the most integral part of our world and I am fascinated by how one’s mind works. What continues to drive my work as a therapist is seeing the positive shift in a client’s view of themselves, feeling more confident in their relationships, and overall feeling happier. I view it as a privilege to have a client share their vulnerabilities with me and trust in the process. I want to hear from you what your goals are and how you feel therapy will improve your well-being. I work in a collaborative approach with you to help you identify your goals and steps to achieve these goals. I monitor your progress and check in with you to determine if you feel you are making progress. During our first session, I will spend time learning about what led you to want to participate in therapy and how you have been recently feeling/coping. I will ask questions to better understand your symptoms, stressors, interests, family/friends, and anything you feel is important to know about you. My primary goal is to work toward establishing a connection with you to gain your trust.
