About Chancey
Chancey Fort, LPC, helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, anger, compassion fatigue, and relationship difficulties. She writes simple, direct plans and focuses on practical steps clients can use between sessions.
Background and approach
Chancey draws on many approaches to fit each person's needs and goals. She has 18 years of experience working in school settings and community mental health across Mississippi.
That experience shaped a down-to-earth style. She listens first, then suggests tools that match how someone prefers to learn and grow.
Chancey uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. She also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills for managing strong emotions and increasing distress tolerance.
The Gottman Method is part of her work when relationship patterns are a central concern. Her sessions are client-centered.
She pays attention to strengths and builds on what is already working. Sessions focus on clear, doable goals so progress is measurable and steady.
People who struggle with loneliness, attachment concerns, communication problems, or workplace stress often find the practical focus useful. She also supports work on guilt, shame, forgiveness, and finding life purpose when those come up.
Chancey aims to create a nonjudgmental space where clients can try different strategies and notice what helps. She encourages small experiments between sessions and adjusts the plan as needed to keep progress moving.
Approaches that inform online therapy choices
Chancey often uses the Gottman Method when relationship patterns are a focus. This approach looks at everyday interaction habits and teaches specific skills for communication and conflict. It can help people who want clearer ways to talk and rebuild trust.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice difficult thoughts and move toward meaningful action. ACT is useful for anxiety, stress, and when life purpose or values are a concern. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thinking and try practical behavior changes that reduce symptoms and improve mood.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then try techniques that fit those needs. Plans are adjusted over time so the work stays relevant and useful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let therapists observe tone and nonverbal cues while phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, journaling between sessions, or when someone prefers typed communication. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
