“Chanel made me feel very comfortable during our first session. She took the time to set goals for us to work toward together, which made me feel like there was a clear direction moving forward. She listens without judgment and creates a comfortable environment where I feel heard. I also really appreciate that she doesn’t pressure you to talk about anything you’re not ready or comfortable discussing.”
8 years experience
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor dedicated to helping children, adolescents, adults, and families feel heard, supported, and empowered. I have over eight years of experience working with diverse populations in inpatient residential, in-home therapy, and outpatient settings. I have experience supporting clients with anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, life transitions, and family-related concerns.
My therapeutic approach is warm, collaborative, and client-centered. I help clients process life experiences while developing practical skills they can use outside of therapy. I utilize evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), trauma-informed care, and mindfulness-based strategies. I also incorporate Motivational Interviewing, psychoeducation, and coping skills to support emotional regulation, stress management, and resilience. My goal is to provide a supportive and nonjudgmental environment where clients can build confidence, strengthen coping skills, and work toward lasting emotional well-being.

“I've only had my first session but I appreciate how comfortable she made me feel. She is really easy to talk to and seems goal oriented. I was able to relax pretty quickly once I began talking to her and I know I can be transparent and address some really difficult issues I am facing during this time.”
“In my first session with Chanel I felt extremely comfortable to speak on what’s going on in my life without judgement but with honest feedback. She created me a list of goals that we will work towards based on our conversation. She has a nice way about her that you feel heard but also helped to see where you could be better.”
“Awesome therapist, listens to your thoughts without judgement, and helps you explore the core issues”
