About Sheldon

Sheldon Chase is a licensed clinical social worker with more than 22 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, trauma, and self esteem concerns. He works with individuals coping with relationship and intimacy-related issues and with those navigating major life changes. Sheldon aims to make therapy straightforward and practical so people can use what they learn right away.

He offers a calm, respectful room where a person can talk about what feels hard. Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful patterns, challenging limiting beliefs, and building everyday coping skills. He uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood concerns, trauma responses, and problems that come from ongoing stress.

Sheldon brings experience working with complex situations, including chronic illness or disability, substance use, grief and end-of-life concerns, immigration-related stress, and communication or control issues that get in the way of daily life. He also supports people dealing with personality-related struggles and co-occurring problems that complicate recovery.

In practice he emphasizes practical tools and steady progress rather than quick fixes. Treatment plans are created together and adjusted as needs change. Many people leave sessions with concrete next steps they can try between meetings.

Sheldon is licensed in California and Nevada as an LCSW and practices out of Nevada. Sessions are conducted in English and he accepts international clients. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to his availability.

How evidence-based methods translate to online care

Many clinicians use evidence-based therapeutic techniques that teach practical skills and change unhelpful patterns. One common approach focuses on identifying and testing limiting beliefs so people can build healthier self esteem and reduce anxiety. This involves noticing thought patterns, trying small behavior changes, and tracking results over time.

Another frequently used technique targets stress responses and trauma-related symptoms by teaching coping skills and grounding practices. Sessions often include short exercises to reduce overwhelm and steps for managing strong emotions between meetings. Both approaches aim to give clear tools people can try right away and refine with feedback.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past, then recommend methods to try. This is a collaborative process and plans are adjusted as needs change.
