About LaChelle
LaChelle Barnett is a licensed clinical social worker with 15 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, relationship problems, and major life changes. Her style is direct and practical, and she balances accountability with a sense of humor to keep work focused and humane.
Barnett draws on a social work background and graduate training in social work. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address trauma, depression, and difficult coping patterns.
How LaChelle works
Sessions aim to clarify goals, remove barriers, and build manageable steps toward change. Many clients come for help with parenting strain, anger, self-esteem, career transitions, or compassion fatigue. She also supports people working through family conflict and those needing coaching-style guidance alongside therapy.
Meetings typically involve straightforward feedback, goal-setting, and tools to apply between sessions. LaChelle offers therapy by video, phone, live chat, and text messaging to fit different schedules and needs. She practices from Indiana and works with English-speaking clients.
Her approach is practical and collaborative, and she helps people shape an actionable plan that fits their life. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on availability. Barnett encourages clients who want structure, clear steps, and occasional firm guidance while they work toward lasting change.

Online support options
Evidence-based approaches and online therapy options
LaChelle uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, then practices new ways of responding to stress and anxiety. Another approach focuses on building coping skills and safety for people who have experienced trauma or addictive behaviors, teaching concrete strategies to manage urges and emotions.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, challenges, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust them over time based on what is working.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues help the work. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to fit short check-ins into a busy day or to keep momentum between longer sessions. These options make it possible to maintain continuity of care and flexibility around work, family, and other commitments.
