About Nuri
Nuri Chaves is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 10 years of experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addiction recovery, anger, depression, relationship concerns, and codependency-related patterns. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and he accepts international clients.
His work focuses on practical, everyday problems. He helps people notice patterns that cost them energy - like always putting others first, trouble saying no, or getting pulled into someone else’s crises. He also supports people coping with grief, career strain, parenting stress, sleep and eating concerns, and neurodiversity-related issues such as ADHD and autism spectrum differences.
Nuri uses a mix of approaches to match the problem at hand. He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take committed steps. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thinking and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance.
In sessions he keeps things direct and practical. Conversations include identifying patterns, practicing skills, and planning small changes to try between meetings. He also brings coaching techniques when clients want focused support for life transitions and goal setting.
Clients can expect straightforward talk about boundaries, codependency patterns, and healthier ways to manage relationships. The emphasis is on real steps people can use at home, at work, and around the people who matter to them.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Nuri commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in his work. ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, value-driven steps even when feelings are strong. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments to reduce anxiety and low mood.Choosing an approach is a collaborative step. He will work with clients to pick strategies that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean mixing ACT and CBT techniques or adding DBT skills for emotion regulation when helpful.
The practical benefits of online sessions are fitting therapy into a busy life and making regular check-ins easier. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current session options before booking. Online work can help with steadier appointment routines, shorter focused check-ins when schedules are tight, and consistent progress while balancing family, work, or caregiving responsibilities.
