Sessions are practical and collaborative, with an emphasis on clear steps people can try between meetings. Chantelle blends several approaches to meet each person’s needs. She uses attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships shape current patterns.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people change how they relate to others. It can be useful for intimacy-related issues, abandonment concerns, and building more stable connections. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. That approach is often used for anxiety, depression, and problems with motivation.Deciding which approach to use is a joint process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, history, and preferences, and then try techniques that fit. Adjustments are made along the way so the plan stays useful and relevant.
Online therapy offers several practical options. Video calls let people see faces and use visual cues, which helps with relational work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are good for quick check-ins, skill practice, or shorter updates between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or busy schedules, while still using the therapist's chosen approaches.
