About Chante
Chante Cross is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with ten years of post-master's experience. She helps people navigate stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, career struggles, and depression. Her approach treats the person, not just the problem, and she centers the client's strengths in each session.
Chante believes clients are the experts on their own stories. She uses practical tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to identify small, achievable changes. Somatic techniques are used when emotions show up in the body, helping clients notice and respond to physical signals.
Sessions focus on building skills that people can use between meetings. That might include goal-setting, behavior experiments, or short practices to reduce anxiety. Chante also supports people working through grief, trauma, relationship concerns, parenting strain, and career transitions.
She pays attention to attachment and family-of-origin patterns that affect current choices. Additional areas of focus include body image, codependency, abandonment issues, blended family challenges, and compassion fatigue. Chante also works with people exploring kink and alternative sexual cultures.
Her style is collaborative and direct. She offers encouragement and practical feedback while helping clients try new strategies. The aim is clearer decision-making, better coping, and more confidence moving forward.
How her approaches translate to online work
Chante uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT sessions typically focus on practical experiments and homework that can be tracked between meetings. She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify what matters to them and boost motivation to change.Solution-Focused Therapy is another tool she uses to identify small, concrete steps that lead toward a preferred future. That approach is goal-oriented and often short-term, which can help with specific concerns like career moves or managing anxiety. Together these approaches give a mix of thinking, planning, and action that works well in remote sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before to decide which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made along the way based on what feels useful.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make scheduling easier and can let people fit sessions into busy weeks, shorten check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Licensed professionals can still use hands-on somatic cues by guiding simple body-focused exercises that people practice during the session.
