About Babette
Babette Chatelle-Bergman is a licensed professional clinical counselor with 12 years of experience supporting people through hard turns in life. She focuses on building self-esteem while helping clients manage trauma, mood struggles, and the stress of parenting and life change. Her work aims to be practical and steady so people can build confidence day by day.
Babette listens closely and follows each person’s pace. She creates a calm space for clients to talk through painful memories, overwhelming moods, or the strain that comes with caregiving and life transitions. Conversations are direct and down-to-earth, with attention to small, doable steps toward feeling better.
She uses client-centered work to keep the person’s own goals central to each session. Cognitive behavioral techniques are used when helpful to spot unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of responding. Together these approaches support changes in behavior, mood, and self-view.
Babette has worked with trauma and abuse, bipolar and mood disorders, and concerns like obsessive thoughts, dissociation, and social anxiety. She also supports people coping with isolation, codependency, and difficulties linked to autism and Asperger Syndrome. These areas are part of a broad practice focused on emotional wellbeing and recovery.
Based in California, Babette offers therapy in English. She asks people to use a short matching questionnaire to start, then schedule sessions based on therapist availability. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
