Remote sessions tailored to practical change

Dr. Chaunise 'Chaun' Powell brings a solution-focused, conversational approach to remote care. Her online sessions aim to be direct and collaborative, with candid feedback and practical tools offered in a conversational style. She frames work as a cooperative process in which both clinician and client engage to identify what is standing in the way and what can be shifted.

Her work draws from community defined practices alongside evidence based methods, adapting interventions to each person’s needs. Those approaches support focused goal setting, skill building for coping with anxiety and stress, and guided attention to trauma, grief, and identity exploration.
