About Chanel
She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and change patterns. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are used to build emotion regulation, stress tolerance, and healthier ways of relating to others. Chanel also uses attachment-based and client-centered approaches to keep sessions warm, focused, and collaborative.
Her background includes work with substance-related issues and relapse prevention methods that emphasize step-by-step skill building. She is a registered yoga teacher and can guide simple stress-reduction exercises during telehealth appointments when clients want them. These practical tools are offered alongside talk therapy to support coping and recovery.
Chanel typically holds live video and phone sessions Tuesday through Friday mornings and responds to messages during weekdays. Messaging is available across the week for sharing thoughts between sessions. People who prefer structured skills training or a supportive, exploratory approach may find the sessions useful.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability. The process is designed to match needs, preferences, and goals before regular sessions begin.

How Chanel’s Approaches Shape Online Work
Chanel uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. CBT is often chosen for anxiety, depression, and patterns that feed stress. She also teaches dialectical behavior therapy skills to build emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal effectiveness for relationships and crisis moments.Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Chanel collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and daily life. She adjusts the emphasis over time so skills and talk work together toward clear, practical steps.
Session formats should be confirmed before booking, as session options are set by the therapist. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around work and family obligations, reduce travel time, and keep momentum between visits. Shorter check-ins and messaging between sessions can support practice of skills and quick problem-solving without waiting for the next full appointment.
