About Chamika Barrant

Chamika Barrant is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York who combines practical tools with reflective exploration to help people move through stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions. With five years of clinical experience, she emphasizes creating a respectful therapeutic space where clients can speak honestly about feelings that are often tied to shame, guilt, or past wounds. Chamika guides clients in connecting past experiences to present patterns so that insight leads to meaningful change rather than self-criticism.

Drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness practices, she helps clients map their emotional cycle - experiences, feelings, behaviors, and consequences - and identify specific triggers that undermine wellbeing. She pairs that work with measurable S.M.A.R.T. goals so progress can be tracked and celebrated, translating insight into real-world improvements. Chamika also uses client-centered techniques to listen carefully and shape treatment around each person’s priorities and values.

Her approach is collaborative and pragmatic: she supports clients in recognizing patterns, testing new ways of coping, and defining what peace of mind looks like for them. Chamika frames success as a joint effort and focuses on concrete steps clients can take to build resilience and improve relationships over time.

Approaches for Online Work and Practical Support



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured approach that helps clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning by offering concrete strategies and practice-based exercises.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and nonjudgmental observation of thoughts and feelings. It supports stress reduction, emotional regulation, and the ability to pause before reacting, which can be helpful for anxiety, anger, and relationship difficulties.

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathic listening and collaborating with the client to build goals that reflect their values. This approach helps people feel heard and supported while they explore identity, attachment, and life transitions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Chamika works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - allowing therapy to fit varied schedules and life demands. This range of options makes it easier to stay consistent with care and to practice skills between meetings with guidance from a licensed professional.
