Background and approach
Chantel holds a Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential - LCSW - and practices in Indiana. She has four years of professional experience supporting people with mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, and self-harm concerns. Her background includes addressing caregiver stress, money and financial worries, and challenges with communication.
In sessions she often helps people sort feelings like guilt, shame, anger, or isolation. She also works with issues such as disruptive mood dysregulation disorder (DMDD), impulsivity, and the search for life purpose. Her approach is collaborative and direct, focusing on what someone can try between meetings.
Starting therapy with Chantel is framed as a step that takes courage. She encourages small, steady progress and practical tools that fit daily life. People find her style calm and matter-of-fact when navigating difficult moments.
Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care
Chantel uses straightforward, evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage symptoms and build coping skills. One common approach focuses on skills training to manage emotions and behavior - this teaches concrete tools to reduce intense feelings, improve impulse control, and handle mood swings. It is useful for mood disorders, DMDD, and impulsivity.Another approach centers on trauma-informed care, which helps people process distressing experiences at a pace that feels safe. This work often includes learning grounding strategies, reducing reactivity, and creating a plan for handling triggers related to post-traumatic stress or abuse.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean combining skill-building, trauma-focused strategies, and practical problem solving in a way that fits daily life.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people use visual cues and more conversational time, while phone sessions work well when video is not possible or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging provide brief check-ins, quick problem-solving, or a way to maintain momentum between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and to try different formats until the best fit is found.
