About Chanta
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 7 years of experience. Chanta Virden helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy issues, addiction concerns, and struggles with self-esteem and body image. She also supports people navigating parenting strains, career decisions, ADHD challenges, grief, bipolar disorder, and questions about life purpose and money.
Chanta uses clear, practical methods in sessions. She draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Mindfulness Therapy to guide conversations and set goals. Sessions typically involve identifying patterns, practicing new skills, and checking progress week to week.
Her style is direct and nonjudgmental. She listens, asks focused questions, and offers simple strategies clients can try between sessions. She aims to help people notice what isn’t working, test small changes, and build coping tools for stress and mood shifts.
Chanta has worked with a wide range of people and describes her background as diverse. She emphasizes practical problem solving and concrete steps rather than grand theory. That often includes short-term plans for specific problems and longer work on recurring emotional patterns.
She provides services in English and practices in Texas as an LPC. Prospective clients who want to begin are invited to use the site’s matching process to schedule a first appointment and to confirm current session options before booking.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Chanta commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to ease symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve concentration. She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify what matters and find internal reasons to try change. That approach is short, conversational, and aimed at strengthening motivation for actions such as quitting substances or starting new routines. Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client discuss goals, try methods, and adjust the plan together based on what helps. Sessions are collaborative and goal-focused, with homework or practice tasks when useful. Confirm the therapist’s available session formats before booking, since specific delivery methods are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people join from different locations. Therapists generally adapt CBT exercises and mindfulness practices to work over distance, so practical skill-building remains possible even when not meeting in person.Sheet 3
