About Chantell
Chantell Laws is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing relationship strain, trauma, grief, low self-esteem, and big life changes. She speaks plainly and focuses on practical steps clients can use right away. Sessions are aimed at finding coping tools and clearer ways to relate to others.
Chantell draws on nine years of experience working with people who feel stuck after loss, betrayal, or shifting roles. She pays attention to how attachment, abandonment, and caregiving stress shape daily life.
How Chantell works
That helps her tailor suggestions that fit each person's situation. Her work often centers on improving communication and setting healthier boundaries. She also supports people working through forgiveness, commitment worries, or problems tied to adoption and foster care.
Chantell addresses the emotional effects of aging, hoarding behaviors, and social anxiety when they come up. Therapy with her blends practical coping strategies and evidence-based techniques to build resilience. She encourages small experiments between sessions so progress feels tangible.
Clients learn to recognize patterns and try new ways of relating. Chantell brings respect for cultural differences into each session and treats people as partners in change. She aims to help clients find clearer direction, stronger self-worth, and more manageable day-to-day coping.
Her practice is located in California and she conducts sessions in English.

Evidence-based techniques and remote care
Chantell uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One approach she relies on helps people build coping skills for overwhelming emotions and daily stressors, teaching specific exercises to manage reactions and reduce distress. Another approach targets relationship patterns and communication skills, helping people notice interaction habits and try new ways of relating that reduce conflict and increase connection.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Chantell works with each person to identify goals and preferences, then recommends techniques that fit those needs. She adjusts plans over time so the work matches changing priorities and progress.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls are useful for in-depth conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth or camera use is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging allow for brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options help therapy fit into busy schedules and different life demands.
