About Chabreah
Chabreah Alston is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Massachusetts. She focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, and ADHD. Her style is warm and collaborative, aimed at finding practical ways to cope with day-to-day challenges.
She draws from several therapeutic approaches to match each person's needs. Chabreah uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take meaningful steps, and she uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance.
Background and approach
She also brings attachment-based ideas into work on relationship patterns and connection. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. She listens, reflects, and helps people practice new ways of handling thoughts and feelings.
Therapy can include skills practice, values work, and attention to how past relationships shape current problems. Chabreah has ten years of clinical experience as an LMHC. Her background includes work with a wide range of concerns such as trauma and abuse, self-esteem, career transitions, compassion fatigue, and complex presentations like co-morbidity and dissociation.
She aims to make therapy accessible and approachable for people from diverse backgrounds. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Getting started involves completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling through the site.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Chabreah often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people identify what matters to them and take small, values-driven steps. ACT supports handling difficult thoughts while moving toward meaningful life choices. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to teach concrete strategies for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These skills are helpful for intense emotions and relationship stress.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about needs, goals, and preferences, and together they decide which strategies to try first. The plan can change over time based on how things are going and what feels most useful.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are good for deeper conversation and visual connection, phone sessions can suit shorter check-ins or lower bandwidth situations, and chat or messaging supports brief check-ins or ongoing reminders between sessions. These options help fit therapy into busy lives and different routines.
