About Chantal

Chantal Peloquin is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 16 years of clinical experience. She practices in Massachusetts and offers therapy in English. Chantal focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and parenting challenges among other concerns.

She takes a flexible approach and works with clients to find practical ways forward. Chantal uses several evidence-based therapies to guide sessions. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice unhelpful thoughts and build values-based habits.

Background and approach

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a calm space where people can be heard and make their own choices. Her background includes work across many settings, which gives her familiarity with different life situations and systems. She emphasizes mindfulness and somatic awareness to help people reconnect with their bodies when emotions feel overwhelming.

Her style mixes structured skills with open listening so each session can fit what feels useful. Chantal pays attention to family and parenting issues among many other areas of concern. She helps with communication problems, grief, intimacy and relationship challenges, mood disorders, and coping with life changes.

She also supports people facing ADHD, trauma, or substance-related struggles. Sessions are offered via video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging. Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

To get started, a short questionnaire and scheduling step are used to match clients and plan the first session.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then take actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and for managing stressful life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments. It is often used for anxiety, mood concerns, sleep problems, and coping with difficult behaviors.

Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes listening and a nonjudgmental relationship so clients can explore what matters to them and make their own decisions. This approach supports people who need a steady, reflective space to process feelings.

Choosing a method is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs and then agree on an approach to try. It may combine several techniques so sessions fit each person’s situation.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy family routine, handle sudden scheduling needs, or keep regular contact between sessions. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, mindfulness practices, and skills training to work in each format so clients can use helpful tools wherever they are.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

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.
