About Chantia

Chantia Carter is a licensed clinical social worker in North Carolina who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship and family challenges, grief, parenting concerns, and life changes. She uses practical tools to address anger, self-esteem, depression, and ADHD symptoms while also supporting LGBT clients and women facing unique stresses.

Chantia emphasizes respectful care and plain talk so parents and caregivers can understand next steps quickly. Her sessions aim to be calm and focused.

Background and approach

She listens closely, helps identify realistic goals, and offers concrete strategies people can try between appointments. Techniques may include brief skill-building, conversational coaching, and exploring patterns that keep problems stuck. Chantia draws on 11 years of clinical experience and holds the Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential - LCSW.

She has worked with people navigating divorce, caregiving and aging issues, fertility concerns, hospice and end-of-life matters, and infidelity. That background informs how she supports practical problem solving and emotional coping. Her approach blends several evidence-informed methods to match each person’s needs.

She pays attention to family of origin influences, communication patterns, and how stress shows up in the body and relationships. Sessions are designed to help people make small changes that improve daily life. Therapy with Chantia is offered in English and delivered online through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

The goal is to make support fit into clients’ routines while addressing emotional and practical concerns.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Imago Relationship Therapy focuses on improving communication and rebuilding connection between partners by creating structured dialogue and safe listening. It can help people who want to change recurring arguments and strengthen emotional bonds.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple practices to notice thoughts, body sensations, and emotions without judgment. It tends to help when stress, anxiety, or strong emotions get in the way of daily functioning and relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan over time if something doesn’t fit.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes it easier to fit counseling into busy family schedules. These formats let people choose the way that feels most comfortable - a live conversation or brief check-ins by message. That flexibility helps parents and caregivers maintain continuity of care while managing everyday responsibilities.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.

Motivational Interviewing

A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.

Psychodynamic Therapy

Exploring how earlier relationships and patterns still shape the present, often over a longer stretch of time. It relies on conversation and reflection rather than exercises.
