About Chanel

Chanel Day is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, bipolar challenges, and trauma. She aims to create a calm space where people feel heard and can start to make small, useful changes. Chanel speaks English and practices in New York.

She has eight years of experience working across inpatient residential, in-home, and outpatient settings. That background means she has met people at different points in their lives and learned practical ways to help them cope. Chanel supports people through life transitions and family-related concerns without judgment.

Her style is warm and collaborative. She works with each person to identify realistic steps they can use between sessions. Practical skill-building is a regular focus, from stress management techniques to tools for emotional regulation.

Chanel uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness-based strategies to help people notice patterns and try new ways of responding. She also draws on Solution-Focused Brief Therapy and trauma-informed care to keep work goal-oriented and sensitive to past hurt.

Motivational Interviewing and psychoeducation appear in sessions when clients want extra help clarifying goals and learning why certain patterns happen. The aim is steady progress - building confidence and stronger coping skills over time.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Chanel often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thought patterns and try practical behavior changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood, and stress because it breaks problems into manageable steps.

She also uses mindfulness-based strategies that teach simple attention and breathing practices. These techniques can reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation after stressful or traumatic events.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Chanel will collaborate with each person to identify goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. This keeps therapy focused on real-life changes the client wants to make.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins during breaks or between errands. It can also let people use shorter sessions or phone-only conversations when that better fits their routine.
