About Chatone

Chatone Strickland is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Texas with four years of practice. She focuses on helping people untangle daily stress, anxiety, mood struggles, addictions, and ADHD-related challenges. She aims to help clients understand what matters to them and move toward those goals in practical steps.

She approaches sessions as a guide who listens and asks questions to clarify hopes and obstacles. She works with a mix of practical skills and discussion to spot unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

Background and approach

That can include ways to manage strong emotions, cope with life changes, and reduce smoking or vaping. Her style is grounded and strengths based. She uses techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Trauma-Focused Therapy to help clients identify patterns and try new strategies.

Sessions focus on what a person wants to change and small moves that add up over time. People can expect straightforward tools for problem solving and emotion regulation. She teaches coping skills, helps set realistic goals, and practices new responses together in-session.

The aim is clearer thinking and better day-to-day functioning. She offers work that balances empathy with practical action. That includes attention to relationships, grief, intimacy concerns, career issues, and recovery from trauma.

Sessions are offered in English and are available to international clients as well.

Therapy Approaches and Online Support

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try practical behavior changes to reduce anxiety, manage mood, or address ADHD-related struggles.

Motivational Interviewing uses guided conversation to clarify personal goals and resolve mixed feelings about change. It can be useful for stopping or reducing smoking and vaping, tackling addictions, or building motivation for new routines.

Trauma-Focused Therapy centers on processing past traumatic experiences in a paced way and building tools to manage triggers. It helps people regain a sense of control after trauma or abuse and supports recovery from post-traumatic stress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to identify needs, try different techniques, and adjust the plan as goals evolve. Together they track progress and shift tactics when something is not helping.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions allow for face-to-face conversation, phone calls use less bandwidth, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to maintain steady work toward goals.
