Chanel Carlile is a licensed clinical mental health counselor in Utah who helps people struggling with anxiety, depression, and self-esteem. She aims to create a respectful, down-to-earth space where clients feel seen and accepted. Chanel emphasizes practical tools to reduce distress while also looking at the issues beneath symptoms.
Chanel draws from several approaches to match each person’s needs rather than using a single method for everyone. She leans on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive-behavioral skills, dialectical behavior strategies, and client-centered listening to shape sessions. This mix allows for short-term coping techniques and deeper work on values and meaning.
Her background includes work in independent practice and community mental health settings, where she developed experience across mood and anxiety disorders, trauma, and addiction concerns. That variety informs how she adapts interventions to different situations and challenges. She has five years of clinical experience and holds an LCMHC credential.
Chanel prioritizes connection and believes the relationship between therapist and person is key to progress. She welcomes honest conversation about fears, shame, and the everyday parts of life people often hide. The goal is to help clients find useful skills and to notice the strengths they already carry.
Outside of work she enjoys collaging, crossword puzzles, photographing the sky, and spending time with her dog. Those everyday interests shape her approachable, human way of working in therapy.
How certain approaches are used in online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small, meaningful steps toward them while learning to sit with difficult thoughts. It can help people who want clearer direction and less struggle with self-judgment. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and teaches skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is often useful for anxiety and depression. Mindfulness Therapy emphasizes present-moment awareness and simple practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional balance.
Deciding which approach fits best is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels workable. Together they will try methods that match the person’s situation and adjust the plan as they learn what helps most.
Practical benefits of online therapy often include easier scheduling and saving travel time so sessions can fit into a busy day. Online work can make it simpler to use tools between sessions, like practicing skills at home or tracking progress in real time.
