About Chelsee
Chelsee Najjar, LMHC, helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, panic, low self-esteem, or depression. She focuses on LGBT concerns and intimacy-related issues and aims to make therapy straightforward and manageable for someone juggling a busy life.
Sessions start with listening. Chelsee creates a calm space to talk through what matters most and to set clear, practical goals. She uses everyday language and concrete steps so people can try strategies between sessions and notice progress.
Her approach draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and on acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and take workable steps. Mindfulness exercises and motivational interviewing are used when they fit the person’s needs. The therapy is collaborative - Chelsee helps clients choose what to try next rather than prescribing a one-size-fits-all plan.
She has eight years of clinical experience and holds a Florida licensed mental health counselor credential, LMHC. That background informs a steady, supportive style that balances gentle challenge with practical tools.
Common issues she addresses include abandonment and family of origin concerns, communication and intimacy struggles, feelings of emptiness or isolation, and life-purpose questions. She also works with topics such as adoption and foster care history, kink and alternative sex culture, co-occurring conditions, and mood-related difficulties.
People who want clear steps and a respectful, nonjudgmental space may find this approach helpful. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling details.
How therapy approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice what matters to them and take small committed steps toward those values even when uncomfortable thoughts or feelings appear. It can help with anxiety, panic, and decisions that feel stuck.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses simple exercises to test unhelpful beliefs and build different behaviors, which is often useful for managing panic and stress.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship. The therapist listens closely and follows the person’s lead, which can make it easier to talk about sensitive topics like intimacy or identity.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chelsee will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying something, checking how it feels, and adjusting the plan together rather than committing to a single method up front.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule and reduce travel time. It can also let people use shorter check-ins when days are tight, or choose audio-only meetings if they prefer not to be on camera.
