About Chantelle
Chantelle Okoye is a licensed professional counselor who helps people facing anxiety, stress, depression, and relationship difficulties. She supports those dealing with trauma, parenting challenges, low self-esteem, and addiction concerns. Chantelle works to make starting therapy feel manageable for people who are nervous about the first step.
She aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through what matters most to them. Conversations focus on practical steps and on understanding patterns that keep problems repeating. Chantelle encourages small, doable changes that add up over time.
Her approach combines listening with structured tools. She draws on cognitive behavioral strategies to spot unhelpful thinking and on mindfulness practices to help people come back to the present moment. Attachment-based ideas guide work on relationships and on how early connections shape current patterns.
Chantelle has 13 years of experience and holds an LPC, licensed in Arizona. That background has included work with a wide range of concerns such as grief, intimacy-related issues, ADHD, and coping with life changes. She also supports people navigating adoption and foster care issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness, body image, and identity matters.
In sessions she focuses on collaboration. She listens, helps people set realistic goals, and teaches skills they can use between meetings. Her style is warm and straightforward, aimed at helping people feel more steady and able to handle life’s challenges.
Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can use this approach to look at how someone connects or withdraws in relationships and to practice new ways of responding.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, is about identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors. In remote sessions this often looks like setting small experiments to try between meetings and reviewing results together.
Mindfulness therapy teaches simple awareness and grounding skills to reduce overwhelm. These practices translate into brief exercises clients can repeat at home to manage panic or stress when it arises.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. That may mean combining approaches and adjusting techniques as progress is made.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make therapy easier to fit into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Many people find remote sessions helpful for keeping momentum between appointments and for practicing skills in real-world settings.
