She commonly works with young adults and people worried about panic attacks, mood shifts, or social anxiety.
Dr. Chavis uses clear, structured methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Sessions typically involve practical tools for managing mood and impulsivity. She also helps people improve communication and address feelings of emptiness or isolation.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Dr. Chavis often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and test unhelpful thoughts. CBT sessions focus on skills like identifying thought patterns, running short experiments, and building gradual exposure for anxiety or panic.She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. DBT-style work includes concrete skills practice for managing strong emotions and reducing impulsive reactions. Client-centered methods anchor sessions in what the person finds most important, using reflective listening and collaborative problem selection.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work with the client to decide whether CBT, DBT, or client-centered techniques best fit their goals, needs, and preferences. This is a collaborative decision that can shift as progress is tracked.
