Hello I am Chaney Statler, a Licensed Marriage and Family Psychotherapist based in California. I received my Master's degree from The University of San Francisco in 2005 and currently run a private practice. I offer couples counseling to traditional couples as well as all types of Polyamorous arrangements. I also work with individual adults and specialize working with trauma, neurodivergence and gender fluidity. My work is grounded in Gestalt theories.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session I will ask questions about your family and background. It is important for me to understand the client's phenomenology in order to understand what they need from me. As we meet we will talk about the recent time period and track how the past may be influencing the present moment and potentially the future.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My greatest strength is my ability to connect with others. We are all human and have some common ground while at the same time, we are unique and one of a kind. I am curious about who you are and I want to help understand as much as possible about what that means for the here and now.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I love working with all couples, young and old. My clients are interested in becoming better partners and learning how to grow the relationship. Improving communication is a key part of my work. Common themes in my work are helping couples understand each other more deeply and appreciate their relationship.
Couples Counseling
Depending on the needs of the couple, I offer a wide range of relationship tools to strengthen any relationship. Good relationships can become great ones, troubled partners can come in and untangle the areas they are finding difficult.

Working with Chaney has been a genuinely meaningful experience. She brings a warm, calming presence to every session, and her authenticity makes it easy to trust and open up. Chaney’s insights are thoughtful and often help me view my experiences in a new, more empowering way. I feel supported, understood, and gently challenged when I need it. I’m grateful for the growth I’ve made with her guidance and highly recommend Chaney to anyone looking for a compassionate and insightful therapist.
