Chancey Fort

Chancey Fort is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship struggles, and compassion fatigue. She addresses concerns common to women and supports clients working through issues like attachment, abandonment, guilt, shame, and isolation. Her manner is straightforward and caring. She aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable.

With 18 years of experience in school settings and community mental health, Chancey draws on several approaches to match each person's needs. She blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral ideas, dialectical behavior techniques, client-centered work, and elements of the Gottman Method when relationships are a focus. Sessions emphasize practical skills alongside honest conversation.

Clients can expect a collaborative plan that links short-term goals to everyday changes. Chancey helps people notice unhelpful patterns, practice grounding and emotion skills, and try new ways of communicating. She also supports people sorting issues like impulsivity, workplace stress, life purpose, and post-traumatic stress symptoms.

Her style is warm and nonjudgmental, with attention to what matters most to each person. Chancey works with children, adolescents, and adults in past roles, and she now focuses on providing individualized care in her counseling practice. She invites people to take small steps and build on them.

If you want a clear, practical approach with room for personal values and goals, Chancey can help you identify what to try next and keep track of progress.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take small, meaningful steps even when unpleasant thoughts or feelings appear. It’s useful for anxiety, stress, and those seeking a clearer sense of purpose. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to shift mood and reactions. It often helps with depression, social anxiety, and workplace stress. The Gottman Method offers concrete, behavior-based tools for improving communication and managing conflict in relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chancey will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. She checks in over time and adjusts the plan based on what feels most helpful for real-life situations.

The original biography did not list specific online session formats. Please confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are supported. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also lets people practice skills in the settings where they live and work, which can help translate what is learned in sessions into everyday changes.
