(she/her/dr.)
Hello, I am Chantail. I am licensed in Texas and Louisiana. I earned my Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of Houston-Clear Lake and my Doctorate in Professional Counseling from Houston Graduate School of Theology. I conduct all sessions via teletherapy and employ an evidence-based approach to support clients with their presenting concerns. I invite you to discuss how we may collaborate to identify the causes and solutions for issues such as anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties. I look forward to working with you.
In our initial session, we will begin with brief introductions, review your confidentiality rights, and then proceed to discuss the specific challenges you are encountering. This will enable us to develop a personalized plan for subsequent sessions.
My areas of expertise encompass individual and couples therapy as well as specific issues related to sex and sexuality, anxiety, ADHD, depression, and aging and sex. I am a Certified Sex Therapist accredited by the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors, and Therapists (AASECT).
I am best positioned to serve individuals and couples seeking meaningful, transformative growth and healing—particularly those who value resilience, faith, spirituality, family, and personal growth. My clients are often deeply committed to growth—but may struggle with being outside their window of tolerance, vulnerability, self-acceptance, or fully embracing their needs, especially in the areas of emotional expression and sex or sexuality. They are usually ready to move beyond survival mode and step into a more empowered, integrated version of themselves. Therapy with me is a space where clients can explore difficult topics without judgment, reconnect with their identity, and develop practical tools for lasting change. I bring both clinical expertise and lived experience into the room, creating an environment that is direct, compassionate, and deeply affirming.
Person-centered (Rogerian)
Person-centered therapy is a form of psychotherapy that helps individuals assume responsibility for their lives and resolve issues autonomously.
Christian Counseling
Christian counseling blends mental health techniques with Christian faith, biblical principles, and spiritual resources to address mental, emotional, and relational issues. It combines evidence-based practices, such as CBT, with prayer and Scripture for healing.
Faith based therapy
Faith-based counseling combines mental health methods with clients' religious beliefs, using prayer, scripture, and shared values to promote healing and align therapy with faith.
Adlerian
Adlerian counselling, or Individual Psychology, is a goal-oriented, short-term approach that helps overcome inferiority, fosters social interest and belonging, and was developed by Alfred Adler. It involves collaboration, in which the therapist helps clients reframe mistaken goals, gain insight, and take action toward a more fulfilling life.
Grief Therapy
Grief counseling is a psychotherapy that helps people process sorrow, loss, and emotional instability after losing loved ones or significant life changes. It uses therapeutic techniques to manage, express, and cope with emotions like sadness, guilt, and anger, aiding adjustment to a new reality.
