Meet Chantal

Begin where you are

You’ve been holding it together for everyone else

But lately, it feels like you’re running on empty. Whether you’re supporting a child, coping with anxiety or trauma, or just trying to manage the emotional weight of daily life, therapy can help you reconnect with yourself and build the support you need.

Who I work with

For caregivers and the people silently struggling inside

I work with children (6+), teens, and adults who are feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or emotionally shut down. Many of my clients are caregivers, parents, or professionals trying to balance everything — while silently struggling inside.

The work we do together

Slow down. Explore what’s underneath.

In our work, we slow down and explore what’s going on underneath. I draw from CBT, DBT, and trauma-informed care to help you process your emotions, regulate stress, and rebuild inner trust. My approach is grounded, warm, and centred around your strengths and values.

With a background in autism support, ABA, and child development, I bring particular sensitivity to how emotional patterns form, how families work, and how to build resilience across ages.

Modalities I draw on

What you can expect

Feel more like yourself again

Together, we’ll create space for honest reflection, practical tools, and meaningful change — so you can feel more like yourself again. The goal isn’t to rush you anywhere; it’s to walk alongside you as you reconnect with what’s already there, and build the resilience to carry it well.
