About Chanel

Chanel Bowen is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with 11 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people improve their mental health and reduce behaviors that cause harm. Chanel uses straightforward tools to help people cope better and feel more in control.

Background and approach

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to address relationship patterns that cause stress. Chanel offers practical skill-building for things like emotion regulation, stress tolerance, and better communication. She includes relapse prevention approaches when problematic behaviors or addictions are part of the picture.

Sessions can also include brief stress-reduction exercises from her background as a registered yoga teacher. Her work commonly covers anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, trauma and abuse, and a range of relationship and identity concerns. Chanel pays attention to how life changes, caregiving stress, chronic illness, and work strain affect daily coping.

She helps people create clear, doable steps rather than vague goals. Telehealth appointments are available on weekday mornings most weeks, and she responds to messages during the workweek. People who prefer talk therapy, skills practice, and practical check-ins often find this approach helpful.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It focuses on building a meaningful life while accepting difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches concrete strategies to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and ADHD-related challenges. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides specific skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal skills, useful when intense emotions or impulsive behavior are present.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with you about your needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit your situation. That may mean mixing techniques from different approaches so sessions focus on the skills and insights that help you most.

Online therapy makes those methods easier to access across different formats. Video calls allow face-to-face work and skills demonstration, while phone sessions work well when bandwidth or having a shorter check-in matters. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief updates, tracking progress, and practicing new skills between appointments. Together these options aim to make consistent care more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
