About Chase
Chase Longnaker is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist working in Kentucky. He has spent a decade helping people cope with anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship strains. Chase focuses on clear, practical work that parents and caregivers can use day to day.
He aims for short, focused conversations that lead to real changes. Sessions look at thinking patterns, painful memories, and concrete steps that reduce stress and improve communication. He often uses approaches that target trauma and unhelpful habits while building skills for calmer days.
Background and approach
Chase brings experience with a wide range of concerns, including parenting struggles, blended family issues, attention difficulties, grief, and problems with intimacy or anger. He also has background supporting first responder communities and addressing post-traumatic stress. That range helps him tailor plans to each person’s situation.
In sessions he balances practical tools with deeper processing. That can mean learning new behavior strategies in one meeting and addressing past hurts in another. Parents are offered tools they can try between sessions and space to talk about hard emotions.
Chase holds a master’s degree in marriage and family therapy and is licensed in Kentucky as an LMFT. He works in English and provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. To begin, a short questionnaire helps match needs to scheduling options.

Approaches for online support and healing
Chase commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR-style trauma work in his online practice. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and improve mood. EMDR-style trauma work helps people process distressing memories by combining focused attention with guided techniques to lessen emotional intensity.He also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear, short-term goals and identify what works now. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, comfort level, and the issues they bring to sessions.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video lets you work face to face while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat or messaging can support quick check-ins, brief skill practice, or ongoing reminders between longer meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into parenting schedules, work shifts, and daily life.
