About Chamberli

Chamberli "Chami" Kane is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on family and parenting concerns along with related life stresses. She brings 22 years of hands-on work in counseling settings. Chami offers a calm, encouraging presence for people who are worried and need practical help getting through hard times.

Chami draws on experience from independent practice, schools, and mental health agencies. She holds a master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and a Specialist in Counseling Education.

Background and approach

Her licensure appears as TN LPC 5523 and MS LPC 1268, and she uses those skills to guide conversations about relationships, parenting, grief, and major life changes. Her own life has included long struggles with infertility and two battles with cancer. Those experiences inform how she listens and responds with empathy.

She aims to make space for difficult topics while still offering hope and practical steps forward. In sessions she blends clear, hands-on techniques with a warm, accepting tone. Techniques may include cognitive tools to challenge unhelpful thoughts, emotion-focused moves to repair relationships, and trauma-informed approaches when needed.

The work is tailored to each person’s goals and situation. Clients can expect a straightforward style that names problems and works on solutions. Chami emphasizes collaboration - she and the client decide what to try next.

The focus is on helping people cope better, improve communication, and manage the everyday stresses that affect family life.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and validating a person’s experience. The therapist follows the client’s lead and creates space for honest talk, which helps when working through family and parenting stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches specific tools to change unhelpful patterns. It can help with anxiety, depression, and everyday coping skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds skills for managing strong emotions and improving communication, which is useful for anger, relationship strain, and self-regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and try methods that seem to fit. Together they decide which tools to keep, which to change, and how to track progress over time.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility for busy family life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from home, phone sessions let someone check in while away from the house, and live chat or text-based messaging can support quick check-ins or ongoing reflection between longer visits. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while juggling appointments and caregiving responsibilities.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
