About
Dr. Chaunise "Chaun" Powell, LCSW, is a warm, solution-focused, and conversational therapist who brings an authentic style to the work, with room for humor along the way.
She supports people moving through a wide range of life situations and transitions, including those impacted by trauma, identity exploration, and challenges with confidence or motivation. These concerns can show up as overwhelm, stress, sadness, anger, or other intense emotions, and she helps clients make sense of what they are experiencing without minimizing it.
Dr. Powell is direct in a caring way and does not co-sign self-defeating narratives. Instead, she gently highlights what may be left unsaid, avoided, or not yet fully in awareness, helping clients bring clarity to patterns that keep them stuck.
Her intention is to help clients navigate pain rather than avoid it, with the belief that growth comes from moving through difficult experiences. Therapy is approached as a collaborative process where support is ongoing and practical tools are used to encourage honest reflection and meaningful change.
Drawing from community-defined and evidence-based practices, Dr. Powell tailors care to each person’s needs and strengths, with a focus on building resilience, self-love, and strategies that support personal transformation.
