About Chatia
Her work has included supporting adults who experienced acquired or traumatic brain injuries. That background informs how she talks about grief, identity change, emotional regulation, and rebuilding confidence after major life events. She also lists hospice and end-of-life counseling among the areas she works with.
Chatia uses a relaxed and warm approach in sessions. She aims to build a collaborative space where questions are welcome and people move at a pace that feels right for them. Therapy is described as practical and down-to-earth rather than intimidating or overly clinical.
Her methods include client-centered work, cognitive behavioral strategies, trauma-focused therapy, and aspects of Internal Family Systems. Those approaches are used to address stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, and depression, plus a range of related concerns such as caregiver stress, attachment issues, and substance concerns.
She also has community mental health experience and work with children, teens, and adults from diverse backgrounds. Chatia is currently a doctoral student in Counselor Education and Supervision and is completing a dissertation on perinatal mental health and culturally responsive care.
Chatia offers a live chat, structured real-time text format, and also provides video and phone sessions. She encourages people to choose the format that best supports their comfort and engagement.

How these approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and supporting the person’s own goals; online work with this approach means the therapist follows your lead and helps you build on what matters to you. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and uses practical steps to change unhelpful patterns; online CBT often includes short exercises and skill practice between sessions. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on safety, emotional regulation, and slowly processing distressing memories or reactions, which can be adapted to pacing that feels manageable in remote sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, needs, and preferences and together choose strategies to try. That collaborative process can include mixing elements from different approaches as progress and priorities become clearer.
Chatia offers live chat as a structured, real-time text format and also provides video and phone sessions; please confirm the current session options before booking. Online sessions can make scheduling easier and help fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce the need to be on camera. These practical benefits can help people stay engaged and apply what they learn between sessions.
