About Chavekka

Chavekka Edwards is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with eight years of professional experience. She works with people facing family conflict, trauma and abuse, anger, and depression. She also supports clients dealing with stress, anxiety, ADHD, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and career or parenting strain.

Her style is straightforward and person-focused. Sessions center on honest conversation about what is happening now and practical steps to change how situations are handled. She uses tools drawn from cognitive behavioral work and mindfulness to reduce reactivity and improve day-to-day coping.

Edwards also brings narrative and client-centered approaches into sessions. That means she helps people make sense of the stories they tell themselves and notices how those stories affect feelings and behavior. Motivational interviewing shows up when someone wants help moving from intention to action, such as changing communication patterns or managing anger at work.

In sessions she helps people identify triggers and practice alternative responses. That can include brief exercises, thought-records, or grounding moments to lower tension. She aims to translate insight into small skills clients can use right away.

Her caseload covers a wide range of concerns beyond anger, including bipolar disorder, coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, and issues like abandonment or attachment. People who prefer clear, practical steps to manage feelings and relationships may find her approach useful.

How her approaches translate to online work

Chavekka often draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients notice unhelpful thoughts and try practical alternatives. CBT tends to focus on specific patterns that keep anger and anxiety alive and on small changes that reduce reacting. She also uses mindfulness therapy to teach simple attention and grounding techniques that lower tension in the moment.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals, what has helped before, and what feels workable. From there she and the client decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, turn a short break into a check-in, or use shorter practices between tasks. If video is an option, it supports skill practice and role-play; if phone is offered, it can be a lower-bandwidth way to keep a steady schedule. Confirm specific session formats when you book so they match your daily life.
