She is a very strong woman, I need that in my life. She not afraid to tell me just like it is. She's not concerned about the standard definition of how a therapist should be. She learns her client and she speaks to you on a level that you need to hear it in a way that breaks through to you. I love her to death

Miss Edwards is a phenomenal listener. I feel like it is important to be heard and listened to while undergoing some growth and changes. In just a few sessions she was able to clear point out what i have been struggling to understand within myself and help me begin the journey of improvement and empowerment. I strongly urge people to get teen counseling and if possible to request Miss Chavekka Edwards.

Dr. Edward's is an exceptional therapist who excels in making mental health less daunting to tackle and getting past the stigmas involved in slcertain aspects of it. I like that she uses common language and gives access able definitions of jargon when necessary that don't seem reductive or overly simplified.
Work with me!
