About Chantelle

Chantelle Okoye is an Arizona Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 13 years of clinical experience. She focuses on relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and related issues. Chantelle helps people notice patterns that come from the family they grew up in and how those patterns show up now.

She uses a straightforward, conversational approach in sessions. Conversations look at how attachment and early family roles shape current reactions. She also uses cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thoughts and DBT skills for managing intense emotions. Mindfulness practices are introduced for grounding and present-moment awareness.

In practical terms sessions involve talking through recent problems and tracing them back to learned patterns. Work may include skill-building, experimenting with new behaviors, and reflecting on difficult family messages. The focus is on clear steps someone can try between sessions.

Chantelle pays attention to how people cope when relationships feel stuck or overwhelming. She supports clients who face grief, burnout, addiction concerns, ADHD, and caregiving strain. She also addresses issues like body image, blended family dynamics, adoption and foster care concerns, and intimacy-related questions.

Sessions are conducted in English and reflect Arizona practice standards for an LPC. Fees vary by location and use a cancellable subscription model. To begin, prospective clients follow the site matching process and schedule a first appointment.

How therapeutic approaches guide remote sessions

Chantelle draws on attachment-based work to look at how early family relationships shape expectations in adult relationships. This approach helps people notice patterns of closeness, distance, and role-taking learned in childhood. She also uses client-centered techniques that prioritize the client's perspective and pacing. That means the conversation follows the client’s concerns and the therapist reflects and clarifies rather than directing. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that keep old patterns going. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Chantelle collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative process may shift over time as needs change. Confirm the therapist's available session formats before booking, as this profile does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, sessions can be scheduled around work breaks or reduce travel time. Some formats also allow shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed, or audio-only options that use less data. Ask about the current session arrangements when you complete the matching questionnaire so logistics can be planned alongside therapeutic goals.
