Other areas she works on include body image, blended family issues, commitment and communication problems, and intimacy-related concerns.

Her approach blends practical tools with empathic support to help people manage symptoms and pursue changes that matter to them.
How Chante’s Approaches Translate Online
Chante commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on specific goals and on practical steps that build momentum toward those goals.Finding the right approach is a team effort. Chante will ask about goals, daily challenges, and preferences, then suggest techniques to try. Together they track what helps and adjust plans over time so the approach fits the person rather than the other way around.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper work. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for short check-ins, homework support, or when someone prefers writing. These options make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life while still working on concrete skills and goals.
