About Chalon

Chalon Dabney is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and CSW based in Georgia who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family challenges, parenting concerns, grief, anger, self-esteem, career issues, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and related life transitions.

Background and approach

With three years of documented experience, she brings an interactive, motivational style that centers on respectful communication and a strong therapeutic relationship. Her work blends practical strategies and collaborative exploration, drawing on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and client-centered methods.

She emphasizes honesty and open dialogue while tailoring methods to each person’s learning and growth preferences. Sessions are organized to help clients identify patterns, build coping skills, and pursue concrete goals that match their values.

Clients choose therapy for many reasons, from caregiver stress and chronic illness to intimacy and attachment concerns. Chalon frames the process as a partnership and supports people through change with empathy and focused interventions.

She offers services in English and provides sessions through video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday challenges by teaching practical skills and exercises to practice between sessions.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify personal values and build psychological flexibility through mindfulness and committed action. This approach can be useful for coping with life changes, chronic stress, and persistent emotional pain by encouraging acceptance of inner experience while pursuing meaningful goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress is made and new priorities emerge.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase accessibility and fit therapy into busy lives. These formats allow for flexible scheduling and ongoing contact between appointments, making it easier for people to maintain momentum and practice skills in real time while still working with licensed professionals.
