About Chanel Carlile
Chanel Carlile is a licensed clinical mental health counselor based in Utah who brings a thoughtful, person-centered approach to treatment. She holds a Master of Education in clinical mental health counseling and a Bachelor of Science in psychology, and she practices as an LCMHC - a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor. Over five years of clinical work, she has focused primarily on anxiety and mood disorders while also supporting people facing trauma, addiction, and co-occurring mental health and substance use challenges.
Her clinical background spans both private practice and community-based mental health settings, giving her experience with a wide range of presentations from panic and obsessive compulsive symptoms to personality and psychotic disorders. Chanel emphasizes practical strategies to reduce immediate distress while also exploring deeper factors that maintain difficulty, tailoring evidence-based interventions to each person’s values and circumstances rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.
Though grounded in humanistic and psychodynamic principles, she regularly integrates techniques from acceptance and commitment approaches, strengths-based work, cognitive behavioral methods, and narrative therapy to fit the needs of each client. She places high value on the therapeutic relationship, believing that a genuine, respectful connection often determines how helpful therapy will be. Chanel affirms each person’s inherent worth and invites clients to bring their whole selves - the strengths, fears, contradictions, and ordinary moments - into the work.
Outside of clinical work she enjoys creative and everyday pastimes such as collaging, crossword puzzles, and savoring a spoonful of peanut butter. She likes collecting rocks, making up little songs for her dog, and photographing the sky. Chanel describes herself as a practiced procrastinator and a self-roaster who is notoriously bad at folding laundry and occasionally stays up too late, reminders that she is human too.
