About Chantelle
Chantelle Belinfantie is a counsellor who uses a client-centred way of working. She aims to make sessions straightforward and focused. Chantelle draws on different therapy approaches to help people who are feeling overwhelmed by parenting pressures, grief, anxiety, low mood, or relationship strain.
She has a BACP credential and around ten years' experience practising in the United Kingdom. Her background includes supporting people through trauma and abuse, addictions, and the emotional fallout of separation and domestic violence.
Background and approach
Chantelle also works with issues like guilt, shame, isolation and difficulties with communication. In sessions she listens first and adapts to each person’s needs. Conversations are used to identify patterns and try small, practical changes.
Clients can expect work on thought patterns, emotional responses and how past experiences shape present reactions. Chantelle has particular experience supporting people through bereavement and endings. That time working with grieving clients shaped her gentle, paced way of guiding people through strong emotions.
She aims to help people build self-compassion and clearer boundaries. Her practice blends short-term, goal-focused work with space for deeper reflection when needed. Sessions are practical and down-to-earth, with a focus on helping parents manage stress and strengthen day-to-day coping.
Chantelle aims to make therapy useful from the first few meetings.

How online approaches and practical therapy work together
Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting. The therapist follows the person's lead and provides acceptance and empathy, which can help people who are struggling with parenting stress, grief or low self-worth.Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to change unhelpful thinking and ease anxiety or low mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chantelle will discuss options and decide together which methods suit the person's goals and preferences. That choice is revisited as progress is made, so the plan can change if needed.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people see facial cues and use a fuller conversational style. Phone sessions are useful when internet bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging allow ongoing brief contact, which can help with day-to-day parenting challenges or quick emotional support between longer sessions.
These formats make therapy more flexible around work, childcare and family life, and allow the therapist to use the same client-centred and CBT techniques through different media so people can choose what fits them best.
