Nuri Chaves, LMHC

Nuri Chaves is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida. He brings 10 years of clinical experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, and relationship strain. He also offers professional coaching to support life changes and goal setting.

Nuri favors practical, evidence-informed strategies including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors. He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-based ideas when those approaches fit a person's goals. Sessions focus on clear steps you can try between meetings and on building skills that last.

He aims to make sessions straightforward and respectful. People can expect a calm, listening approach that centers their priorities and values. Treatment plans are shaped around what matters most to the individual rather than a one-size-fits-all template.

Nuri works with a wide range of concerns such as grief, intimacy-related issues, parenting strain, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and career transitions. He also addresses more specific focus areas like abandonment, adoption and foster care, body image, chronic illness, and blended family issues.

Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and are available to international clients. Nuri provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging so people can choose the format that fits their life.

Therapeutic approaches for online care

CBT helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep and some eating concerns because it focuses on practical steps and skills to try between sessions.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and to take actions that align with personal values. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current reactions and helps people build more secure ways of relating.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked in the past. Together they decide whether CBT, ACT, attachment work, or a blend will best support progress.

Online sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video sessions allow face-to-face work and skill practice, phone calls can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can support quick check-ins or ongoing coaching between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, or travel schedules while keeping the focus on clear goals and skill building.
