Chandler’s approach to counseling stems from the understanding that people have their own story to tell and that people most feel valued when they feel truly heard. Chandler’s empathetic approach to counseling allows people to feel valued and accepted wherever they are in life and provides a safe space for people to explore their thoughts and feelings on a deeper level. He sees the therapeutic process as coming alongside his clients and helping them navigate their life circumstances together. He encourages honesty, openness, and a willingness to act from his clients so that they can understand themselves on a deeper level and grow in their personal development.

Chandler has experience helping clients navigate relationships, current life stressors, developing positive coping skills for depression and anxiety, and working through struggles with addiction to alcohol and drugs.
