About Nuri
Nuri Chaves is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 10 years of clinical experience. He works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, addiction recovery, anger, depression, relationship problems, and life transitions. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and he accepts international clients.
Nuri blends practical techniques with a person-centered stance. He uses methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people notice patterns, test new behaviors, and manage intense feelings. Therapy conversations focus on what the client wants to change and what helps them keep going day to day.
In sessions he helps people name triggers, practice new responses to anger, and build skills for handling work and relationship stress. He also supports those working through grief, caregiving strain, or struggles with eating, sleep, and self-esteem. Coaching work is available for people who want structured support toward specific life or career goals.
Nuri has experience with attachment-related concerns, adoption and foster care issues, neurodiversity, and care for people facing chronic illness or aging challenges. He describes therapy as collaborative - the client’s goals guide the pace and focus. Practical homework and real-world practice are common parts of the process.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that align with values. ACT can be useful for anger that stems from rigidity or painful thoughts about oneself and others. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down situations into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, then tests new ways of responding; it is often helpful for workplace stress, relationship conflict, and mood problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which many people find useful when anger feels intense.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That choice can shift as progress is made and new challenges appear.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work and family life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Some approaches lend themselves to at-home practice and brief between-session exercises, which can be scheduled to match a client's routine.
