About Chantal

Chantal Peloquin is a licensed mental health counselor with 16 years of clinical experience. She works from Massachusetts and supports people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, depression, ADHD, and related concerns. Chantal aims to create a straightforward, compassionate space where clients can talk about what feels hard and learn practical skills to cope.

She trained at the master’s level in clinical psychology and has worked in many care settings over the years.

Background and approach

That background includes outpatient and residential programs, work with the juvenile system, state and foster care, and supporting people with dual diagnoses. This variety informs a flexible approach to common life challenges. Chantal blends evidence-based methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, and mindfulness.

She also uses client-centered and acceptance and commitment approaches to help people identify values and take manageable steps toward change. Sessions focus on real-life tools, breath and body awareness, and addressing patterns that get in the way. Her work often addresses attachment concerns, communication problems, mood disorders, grief, and substance use issues.

Chantal pays attention to how physical pain and long-term health issues affect mood and daily functioning. She helps people untangle guilt, shame, impulsivity, and isolation so they can find clearer direction. People who prefer a thoughtful, varied approach find her style helpful.

She aims to adapt strategies to each person’s needs and to work collaboratively on practical goals. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy - ACT encourages people to clarify what matters most to them and take small actions toward those values. It can help with anxiety, low mood, ADHD-related frustration, and coping with life changes by focusing on committed steps rather than perfect feelings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT looks at how thoughts, behaviors, and feelings interact. It offers practical strategies to test unhelpful thoughts, change routines, and reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and impulsivity.

Client-Centered Therapy - This approach emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the person leads the pace. It can be useful for exploring identity, self-esteem, grief, and relational concerns while the therapist listens and reflects.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Chantal will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. Together they’ll try strategies, track what helps, and adjust the plan over time.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face work when more interaction is helpful. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option or easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between sessions or use brief coaching-style support. These formats make it easier to receive ongoing care across time zones and schedules.
