About Chaunise
Dr. Chaunise 'Chaun' Powell helps people who are feeling stuck, unsure of themselves, or overwhelmed by big life changes. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with ten years of experience and brings a warm, direct style to sessions. Expect a conversational tone, honest feedback, and a readiness to call out what’s been avoided so progress can begin.
She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, trauma and abuse, and struggles with self esteem. She also supports those dealing with blended family issues, codependency, communication problems, fertility concerns, and feelings of isolation or shame. Her approach is practical and goal-oriented, with moments of candid humor when it helps relieve tension.
In sessions she focuses on getting to what matters most and building skills that make life more manageable. That can mean learning ways to handle intense emotions, practicing clearer communication, or developing routines that reduce overwhelm. She encourages honest self-reflection and small actions that add up over time.
Her work draws on community-defined ideas and evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people build resilience and self-love. Therapy is described as a collaborative process where the client’s values and strengths guide each step. The goal is to create concrete strategies that support long-term change and a stronger sense of purpose.
Dr. Powell practices in California and conducts sessions in English. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.
