About Nuri

Nuri Chaves is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with ten years of experience helping people work through stress, anxiety, addiction recovery, anger, and depression. He combines a practical, down-to-earth style with a respectful, compassionate stance. Nuri focuses on what matters most to each person and adapts his approach to fit individual goals.

Nuri uses direct conversation and gentle challenge to help people make lasting change. Sessions emphasize clear goals, skill-building, and real-world steps that fit everyday life. He also offers coaching-style support for clients aiming to shift careers, habits, or routines.

Sleep and rest are among the concerns he addresses, with attention to how stress, mood, and routines affect sleep. He works with people to identify patterns that interfere with rest and to try practical strategies that can be used at home.

Nuri draws from methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Attachment-Based Therapy to shape the work. He blends these approaches with client-centered listening to match the pace and focus to each person.

Sessions are offered in English and Spanish, and his practice includes international clients. To begin, readers use the site Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability. Nuri frames therapy as a partnership aimed at steady progress and clearer direction.

Approaches that translate to online work

Nuri commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy in his work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings and committing to actions that match personal values; it can help with anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early patterns of relating shape current relationships and helps people change how they connect. Client-Centered Therapy centers the client's perspective and priorities, using warmth and reflective listening to guide progress.

Finding the best approach is part of the therapy process. He will work together with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, pace, and preferences. That collaborative process can include trying different strategies and adjusting based on what helps most.

The original biography did not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, save travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when days are tight. It also lets people continue work with a licensed professional when relocating or managing a changing schedule. Discussing logistics during the first scheduling steps will clarify what formats are available and how they can best support the client's needs.
