She then pursued and earned her Master of Social Work from the University of Arkansas where she graduated in 2005 with an emphasis on mental health and special focus via her electives and internships in substance abuse. Upon graduation and starting work in her career, she continued to focus on substance abuse through her work in a residential substance abuse facility for drug addicted mothers where she served in the role of Assistant Clinical Director. Chantal also attended the Midsouth Summer School on Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse, an annual continuing education program, from 2005-2007.

She has now earned a second license as a Licensed Alcoholism and Drug Abuse Counselor (LADAC) through the Arkansas State Board of Examiners of Alcoholism and Drug Abuse Counselors. This licensure required Chantal to demonstrate proficiency as a therapist providing services to individuals strugging with substance abuse as evidenced through 6,000 hours of supervised clinical experience.
