Getting to know Alike Chandler
Hi there, I'm Aliké!
My name is Aliké Chandler, license number 139553. I hold a Master’s in Counseling from Pepperdine University. My approach entails connecting with my clients in a way that makes them feel safe and seen. Many times, clients carry the heaviness of their challenges and have the desire to be cared for in a way that is genuine and approachable. I enjoy being the guide toward their healthy outcomes. I focus on empowering the client toward autonomy, increasing insight into the problem or challenge at hand, and establishing realistic goals and tools that will enable the client to manifest a transition in their lives.
My approach
The most common theoretical approaches that I embrace are Client/Person-Centered Therapy (PCT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). While clients can benefit from many other modalities, it is important to assist in reframing the thought patterns that have a direct impact on undesired behaviors and responses. Both PCT and CBT help individuals harness agency over their own lives. To attain this, I work with clients on establishing internal resources explored through psychoeducation and tasks outside of the session that the client can practice and utilize when situations prompt them to do so.
My focus
I typically work with high-functioning clients seeking assistance in parenting and relationships (familial, personal, romantic, and work). I work primarily with women of color and LGBTQ clients who contend with mental health challenges or trauma coupled with their social location (gender, ethnicity, age, sexual orientation, and SES). Many clients seek assistance dealing with life transitions that are difficult for them to manage, such as becoming a new mom or exploring sexual orientation.
My communication style
Clients tend to feel very comfortable. The tone I set is authentic to who I am—very open and laid back.
