You have come to this page for a purpose. I want to welcome you to this page in your exploration of resources for emotional support. Life is full of challenges. The pandemic also brings emotional distress. When we cannot handle life’s situation, it is all right to reach out to someone who could be helpful. I can provide that support. I enjoy working with Couples, Families, and adults who strive to address their hurts, distress, and struggles. If you are troubled, struggling, and emotionally overwhelmed, I have listening ears and an empathic posture to support you. I offer Christian counseling, also. Presently, I provide teletherapy

My goal is to work with my clients to increase self-empowerment and learn new tools to overcome life challenges. I enjoy getting to know my clients, then working together to create a reasonable treatment plan where my client can feel confident moving forward with changes in their life. I specialize in trauma informed mental health therapy, which I realize is at the forefront of most of our life problems. I am looking forward to offering compassion, validation, and encouragement to my clients. Change can be challenging but not impossible, especially with extra support.

We as people are are all broken on some level, but we don't need to stay that way. Depending upon the cards we've been dealt in life (what's been done to us, and what we've done to ourselves) fractures in our world view, relationships, and self concept arise. I work best with a client who comes willingly to counseling, is motivated for change, and is open minded to new perspectives of responding to their problems. Many clients comment on the speed with which we are able to resolve their individual concerns.

When we have an experience that is traumatic or incredibly stressful, our brains have a hard time processing that memory. This can create symptoms such as, anxiety, depression, overwhelming emotions, difficult feelings, self-blame, or relationship problems, to name a few. If given the opportunity, our minds, like our bodies, have the innate ability to heal. The trouble with difficult experiences, however, is that these memories get tangled, leaving us feeling stuck or showing up in other destructive ways in our lives.

Welcome! I'm Chanté, a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist dedicated to helping others navigate complexity and stress in their lives. I found at a very early age that I have a gift for being a great listener. In both my personal and professional life, I often find that others are comfortable confiding deep and personal things in me. Over time, I developed a natural curiosity to understand human habits and behaviors, which led me to the field of mental health. My own relationship with therapy has had a profoundly positive influence on my life and the goal in my practice is to help instill those same benefits in you.
