About Chantelle
Chantelle Belinfantie is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has around ten years of professional experience. She works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief, depression, self-esteem and anger. Her practice also covers relationship and family worries, parenting strain, addictions, and issues linked to trauma and abuse.
Chantelle blends client-centred ways of working with elements from cognitive behavioural therapy and psychodynamic thinking. That means sessions focus on what the client brings in the moment, looking at thoughts and patterns that keep problems going, and noticing how past experiences shape current feelings. She aims to help people understand their reactions and learn practical ways to respond differently.
Her background includes several years supporting people through bereavement, and that experience feeds into how she helps with loss and separation. She has also worked with people managing complex emotional and behavioural challenges and with those living with learning or physical disabilities.
In sessions Chantelle listens for what matters most, offers straightforward observations, and suggests practical strategies when helpful. This may involve working on unhelpful thinking habits, paying attention to emotional triggers, or exploring difficult memories at a manageable pace.
People come to her when anger builds up, when resentment affects relationships, or when stress and overwhelm feel constant. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and then book a first session to agree goals and a way forward.
How Chantelle’s approaches fit with online work
Chantelle uses client-centred ways of working and cognitive behavioural therapy alongside psychodynamic ideas. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters to the person in the room, helping them feel understood and able to talk through difficult moments. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers practical tools to change unhelpful patterns. Psychodynamic ideas explore how past experiences and relationships affect current reactions and emotional responses, which can help with persistent anger or repeated patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chantelle will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try. She frames this as a collaborative process, adjusting what they do as the sessions progress so it fits the client’s needs.
The original biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm the available online options before booking. Many people value online sessions because they can fit therapy around work or family commitments, reduce travel time, and make shorter check-ins easier to schedule. Online work also allows the therapist and client to use practical tools such as brief behavioural experiments or thought-record exercises between meetings to support progress.
