Practitioner record · Checked 9 Oct 2026
Chanel Day has been in practice 8 years and is licensed in New York. Chanel lists stress, Anxiety, trauma and abuse and grief among 68 subjects on the BetterHelp roster.
Everything below is either quoted from Chanel's own BetterHelp listing, taken from public licensing records, or written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such. Nothing here is an availability promise, a review, or a rating.
01 · Who Chanel works with
Chanel lists 5 specialisms and 63 further focus areas. Specialisms are the subjects Chanel chose to list first, which is the closest a listing gets to “this is my actual practice”.
02 · In Chanel's own words
Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor dedicated to helping children, adolescents, adults, and families feel heard, supported, and empowered. I have over eight years of experience working with diverse populations in inpatient residential, in-home therapy, and outpatient settings. I have experience supporting clients with anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, life transitions, and family-related concerns.
My therapeutic approach is warm, collaborative, and client-centered. I help clients process life experiences while developing practical skills they can use outside of therapy. I utilize evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), trauma-informed care, and mindfulness-based strategies. I also incorporate Motivational Interviewing, psychoeducation, and coping skills to support emotional regulation, stress management, and resilience. My goal is to provide a supportive and nonjudgmental environment where clients can build confidence, strengthen coping skills, and work toward lasting emotional well-being.

03 · What happens next
Chanel practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Chanel's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.
BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Chanel at this point.
BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Chanel is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Chanel.
You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.
A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.
Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.
04 · Before you commit
Built from what Chanel actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Chanel's - Chanel has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.
“How do you decide when someone is ready to work on a traumatic memory itself?”
Pacing is the biggest safety question in trauma work. A clear, unhurried answer here matters more than any credential.
“How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”
On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.

06 · Provenance
Chanel's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 9 Oct 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.
The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.

If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
