Chante Cross

Chante Cross is a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Virginia with ten years of work experience since completing her master’s degree. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and career difficulties. Chante focuses on practical skills and straightforward strategies that people can use between sessions.

She believes each person knows their story best and brings their own strengths to counseling. In sessions she listens closely and helps clients name goals they actually want to reach. She uses approaches that emphasize problem-solving, changing unhelpful thoughts, and building body-based awareness.

Her work includes support for relationship and intimacy concerns, grief and loss, trauma and abuse, parenting strains, and compassion fatigue. Additional areas she addresses are attachment and family of origin issues, blended family challenges, body image, and commitment or control problems. Career questions and motivation are also part of her practice.

Chante uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Somatic Therapy to tailor plans to each person. Sessions often focus on skills practice, short-term goals, and concrete steps clients can try between meetings.

She frames counseling as a collaborative process. Clients can expect clear, practical suggestions, gentle challenge when needed, and work toward goals that matter to them.

How her approaches translate to online care

Chante commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to guide her work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and depression. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, practical steps and clear goals to create noticeable change quickly.

She also draws on Motivational Interviewing to help people find personal reasons to change and build sustained motivation. Together these approaches give a mix of skill-building, goal-setting, and motivational support that can fit many concerns like career transitions, stress, and relationship issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then recommend strategies to try. That plan can be adjusted as progress is tracked, so work stays relevant and useful.

Please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into everyday life, for example by cutting travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a busy day, or offering options when being on camera is not desired.
