TRANSFORM YOUR MENTAL HEALTH PRACTICE

Expert Consulting from Chantal Hayes, LCMHC-S

"My journey from solo therapist to CEO wasn't without challenges, but it taught me that with the right guidance, we can achieve what once seemed impossible. I'm deeply passionate about helping others, especially women in business, join the mere 1.7% of women-owned businesses that ever reach $1M in revenue. Those I've worked with appreciate that I keep it real and authentic... you can't work with me and be afraid of dropping an F bomb! I believe in your vision and would be honored to walk alongside you on your path to creating a thriving practice that truly makes a difference. Success means more when it's shared, and I'm here to share what I've learned with you."

Elevate your mental health practice with strategic guidance from Chantal Hayes, founder and CEO of North Carolina's fastest-growing counseling enterprise. With a proven track record of building and scaling two successful mental health companies from the ground up—including Banyan Tree Counseling & Wellness, which achieved remarkable 852% growth over two years with over 40 employees across three locations, Chantal offers comprehensive consulting tailored to your practice's unique needs.

As a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Supervisor who successfully transitioned from clinician to healthcare executive, Chantal brings a rare combination of clinical expertise and business acumen to help you navigate the complex landscape of mental healthcare entrepreneurship. Her holistic approach addresses the full spectrum of practice development:

Strategic Growth Planning

Develop sustainable expansion strategies while maintaining clinical excellence

Team Building & Culture

Clinical Leadership

Chantal's leadership extends beyond her own practices as she serves on the Board of Directors for Entrepreneurs' Organization RDU Chapter and actively participates in business organizations including NAWBO, American Business Women's Association, and Wilmington Women With A Purpose, alongside professional affiliations with the American Counseling Association and Licensed Clinical Counselors of NC.

Whether you're launching a new practice, facing growth plateaus, or seeking to scale your existing services, Chantal's consulting offers the roadmap to build a thriving, mission-driven mental health business that prioritizes both client care and operational success.

"There's more to me than spreadsheets and growth strategies! My Buddhist studies under Phrakru Buddamonpricha taught me that mindfulness is a practice that grounds both my personal life and business approach. As someone diagnosed with AuDHD later in life, I understand firsthand the unique strengths and challenges that come with neurodivergence, which has deeply informed how I build inclusive workplace cultures. When I'm not growing my 4+ businesses (as a true entrepreneur!), you'll find me snowboarding in Aspen, creating art with my 3 children, writing poetry, or getting my hands dirty in my greenhouse. I believe in continuous learning, fighting for social justice, and cherishing authentic human connections. Because at the end of the day, that's what makes all of this meaningful."
