About Chancey

Chancey Fort is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Mississippi with 18 years of clinical experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, compassion fatigue, and relationship concerns.

Background and approach

She also attends to related areas such as attachment and abandonment issues, communication struggles, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, self-love, social anxiety and phobia, women’s issues, and workplace challenges. Chancey weaves together practical strategies and empathetic listening to address the problems clients bring to therapy.

Her approach is integrative and client-focused, drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), client-centered methods, and selected relational tools like the Gottman Method. Chancey emphasizes collaboration when building individualized plans that reflect each client’s goals and circumstances.

With experience in school settings and community mental health, she combines structure with warmth to help clients develop skills, build insight, and make meaningful change over time.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Chancey commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management. She also applies Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to guide people toward clarifying values and taking committed action even when difficult feelings are present, often valuable for mood problems and life purpose work. In addition, client-centered methods create space for empathic listening and collaboration so clients feel heard while exploring goals and growth.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Chancey works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best. She tailors techniques to a client’s goals, preferences, and progress, adjusting the plan over time as needs change.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing people to access support from home or other convenient locations. These formats can make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities, and they permit therapists and clients to focus on skills, insight, and problem solving together.
