About Chanta
Chanta Virden is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people manage anxiety, stress, depression, and trauma. She works with adults facing relationship strain, parenting challenges, addiction concerns, and life transitions. Her approach aims to make therapy feel approachable and practical for everyday problems.
Chanta keeps sessions straightforward and focused. She listens first, then helps people set small, clear goals. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and Solution-Focused strategies to build on what already works.
Background and approach
Her style blends mindfulness practices with motivational interviewing to help clients notice patterns and find the drive to change. Sessions often include simple exercises to practice between meetings, like thought records or short mindfulness pauses. This helps people turn ideas from sessions into real habits.
With seven years of experience, Chanta draws on a range of methods to match a person's needs. She supports concerns including grief, bipolar challenges, intimacy issues, self-esteem, body image, money worries, and life purpose. She also helps clients navigating LGBT concerns and young adult issues.
Chanta offers therapy in English and provides sessions through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. She uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time, and scheduling begins by completing a short matching questionnaire.
How her approaches work online
Chanta commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT often involves tracking reactions and trying small, practical changes to see what helps for anxiety, mood, or stress.She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and improve focus. Mindfulness exercises are short and can be practiced between sessions to steady emotions and increase awareness.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Chanta will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and adjust methods as needed. Together they choose techniques that fit daily life and feel doable.
Online therapy makes those choices more flexible. Video calls let the therapist observe expressions and body language, while phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or on-the-go support. These options let people fit sessions into workdays, caregiving routines, or busy schedules.
