About Chante

Chante Cross is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Virginia who brings a decade of post-master's experience to her clinical work.

Background and approach

She focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem and career-related challenges, and offers support for relationship and family concerns as well as trauma, grief, and intimacy-related issues. Her practice also attends to a broad range of related struggles such as caregiver stress, codependency, body image, and blended family dynamics.

Chante views clients as the experts on their own lives and builds on their existing strengths to develop practical skills and coping strategies. She draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Somatic Therapy to tailor interventions that help clients increase insight, manage symptoms, and pursue meaningful change.

Whether the needs involve motivation, communication problems, or processing life transitions, she emphasizes collaboration and empowerment throughout the therapeutic process. Clients can expect an approach that balances skill-building with attention to emotional and bodily experience, aimed at fostering greater confidence and resilience.

Chante accepts international clients and offers multiple session formats to accommodate varied schedules and preferences.

Online approaches that combine thought work and body awareness

Chante frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns, build practical coping skills, and address symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Motivational Interviewing is used to explore ambivalence and strengthen personal motivation for change, which can be especially helpful when clients are weighing life or career shifts. These methods are presented in clear, goal-oriented terms so clients can immediately apply strategies between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with clients to evaluate their needs, preferences, and goals, adapting techniques from different models as progress unfolds. This partnership helps determine whether more cognitive work, solution-focused planning, or somatic awareness best supports the next steps in a client's growth.

Online formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging offer flexibility for busy schedules and differing comfort levels with technology. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, or travel, and they allow licensed professionals to support clients across distances with consistent therapeutic focus.
