Chaunce Windle

Chaunce Windle, Ph.D., is a psychologist in Eugene, Oregon.

---

Although Chaunce Windle is generalist by training, she especially enjoys helping people overcome their struggles with food and body image, depression, anxiety, trauma, and cultural identity development (e.g., sexual orientation, race, ability status, etc.). Dr. Windle also enjoys helping people enhance their relationships through couples and group therapy. Her intention is for you to leave your sessions with her feeling validated, accepted, and prepared to face your struggles with new insights and increased confidence. Dr. Windle's style is active, meaning that she balances listening and empathic support with gentle challenges, exercises, and ideas for maintaining your therapeutic growth outside of your weekly sessions with her. As an interpersonal and culturally-sensitive therapist, the approach Chaunce Windle uses begins with building a strong relationship with you that is based on trust, respect, and honesty. From there, you will work with her to replace shame, fear, and low self-esteem with self-acceptance, compassion, and a sense of personal worth and value.   Some of the techniques Dr. Windle uses include mindfulness exercises, intuitive eating, communication skill-building, journal and letter writing, creative/artistic forms of expression, and humor. (It’s important to laugh!) If you’d like to find out more about how she works, please call Chaunce Windle for a free phone consultation.
