About Chatone
Chatone Strickland is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Texas with four years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, anger, depression, relationship strains, and life transitions. She also supports people dealing with addictions, post-traumatic stress, grief, and concerns like parenting and smoking or vaping cessation.
Strickland’s work begins by helping people name what they want and what gets in the way. She guides conversations about thoughts, behaviors, and beliefs. She offers concrete skills to cope, manage strong emotions, and solve immediate problems.
Sessions focus on practical steps rather than abstract talk. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thinking and to try new behaviors. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or uncertain about change. Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses the impacts of past hurt and stressful experiences.
Her approach emphasizes strengths you already have and builds on small, testable changes. Expect clear, direct talk and strategies you can use between sessions. The therapist helps people track progress and adjust plans when needed.
People who prefer goal-oriented sessions and concrete tools often do well with this style. Strickland works in English and accepts clients from outside the United States. Before booking, confirm current session formats and scheduling options.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Chatone Strickland uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thought patterns and try small behavioral experiments. CBT sessions often focus on clear steps you can practice between meetings and are useful for anxiety, anger, and low mood.She also draws on Motivational Interviewing to support people who feel ambivalent about change. That approach centers on listening, weighing pros and cons, and building internal motivation to make different choices.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted over time as needs change.
Confirm the current session formats before booking so you know what practical options are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. Phone or video sessions may let someone attend when they cannot be on camera or need a quicker appointment, but please check which formats this therapist provides before scheduling.
