About Chavekka

Chavekka Edwards is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with eight years of clinical experience who supports people facing a wide range of life challenges, including family conflict, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, ADHD, anxiety, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting struggles, and career-related stress.

Background and approach

She works with additional issues such as attachment and abandonment, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and body image, tailoring her work to each client’s particular situation and goals. Her therapeutic stance emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion while centering the client’s perspective.

Chavekka combines client-centered listening with evidence-informed techniques drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and narrative approaches to help clients explore patterns, build coping skills, and clarify values. She frames change as a collaborative process and adjusts dialogue and treatment plans to match individual needs.

Based in Florida, Chavekka offers multiple remote session formats to increase accessibility and to fit different lifestyles. She encourages those ready to take a first step toward improved wellbeing to reach out and begin a tailored, practical path forward.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Chavekka often uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful space where the client’s priorities shape each session, helping people feel heard and understood as they explore personal goals. She also integrates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be useful for addressing anxiety, depression, anger, and ADHD-related challenges.

Choosing the right combination of methods is part of the collaborative process. The therapist works with clients to determine which approaches best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan over time based on what is most helpful for progress.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for people balancing work, family, and health demands. Video calls provide face-to-face connection when needed, phone sessions can be more convenient for those on the go, and live chat or text-based messaging allow ongoing support between sessions. These options increase flexibility and make it easier to maintain consistent care while fitting therapy into varied schedules.
