About Sheldon
Sheldon Chase is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Nevada with 22 years of experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and coping with life changes. He also addresses problems linked to guilt and shame.
He keeps sessions direct and practical. He helps people name what they are feeling and what those feelings mean for daily life. He works with clients to break down overwhelming problems into smaller steps they can try between sessions.
In the room he focuses on patterns that keep people stuck, such as avoidance, control problems, codependency, or impulsive behavior. He pays attention to how past hurts and cultural or immigration issues shape current reactions. He will talk through how mood, stress, pain, or medical conditions interact with emotions and behavior.
He uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to build skills for handling anxiety, cravings, intrusive memories, and low self-esteem. He works collaboratively to set clear goals and practical exercises. People can expect straightforward feedback and concrete strategies to practice.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Sheldon uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage symptoms and habits. One common approach focuses on teaching practical skills for anxiety and cravings, such as breathing, grounding, and stepwise behavioral experiments that reduce avoidance. These skills are useful for stress, addiction urges, and panic responses.Another common approach targets processing of traumatic memories and hurtful events by helping people tell the story at a pace they can manage, identify unhelpful thoughts, and practice new ways of responding. This work aims to reduce the hold of past events on day-to-day behavior and relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sheldon will discuss options with each person and choose methods based on symptoms, goals, and what the person prefers. The approach can be adjusted over time as needs change, and decisions are made collaboratively.
