About Chantelle
Chantelle Belinfantie is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 10 years of experience. She helps people with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem and depression. Chantelle also supports people facing relationship and family strain, parenting pressures, addictions and anger.
Chantelle uses a mix of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centred work and psychodynamic ideas. She focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and patterns, then testing different ways of responding. Sessions are practical and aim to break down problems into manageable steps.
Earlier in her career Chantelle volunteered as a bereavement counsellor for four years. That work involved supporting people through grief and loss and helping them develop coping strategies. She has experience with a range of emotional and behavioural difficulties across adult clients.
Her practice includes attention to issues such as abandonment, communication problems, divorce and separation, domestic violence, guilt and shame, and isolation or loneliness. She also works with concerns around forgiveness, emptiness, self-love and women’s issues.
Chantelle’s style is collaborative. She helps people notice thought patterns and then tries small, practical experiments to shift feelings and behaviour. The focus is on clear steps and realistic goals that fit into everyday life.
How her approaches work for online sessions
Chantelle uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test practical alternatives. CBT sessions often focus on specific problems like anxiety, low mood or unhelpful behaviours and include clear steps to try between meetings.She also offers client-centred work which emphasises listening and reflecting back what matters to the client. This approach helps people explore feelings and priorities at their own pace. Psychodynamic ideas are used to look at recurring patterns and early experiences that influence current reactions, which can help with long-standing issues such as relationship patterns or shame.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Chantelle will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try. This is a collaborative process that can change as therapy progresses.
Session formats are not listed in the original biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy timetable, reduce travel, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals often use remote sessions to keep regular contact and make steady progress without asking clients to rearrange large parts of their day.
