Sway Chavez, CMHC

Therapist

Sway Chavez Therapist
I believe that each individual possesses the innate ability to heal from within, though this journey often requires guidance and support. My role is to serve as an assistant coach, helping you, the Head Coach, navigate the rich terrain of self-discovery and growth. Together, we will work to uncover the resources and strengths within yourself, through a diverse range of therapeutic techniques tailored to your unique needs and aspirations. I am committed to facilitating a process that empowers you to take charge of your own journey.

At the core of the therapeutic work I do is the understanding that many individuals find a lack of harmony between their beliefs and their actions. One of my primary objectives is to help bring these into alignment, allowing you to show up in your integrity and wholeness.

My approach is trauma-informed, prioritizing your sense of safety as we delve into the deeper aspects of your thoughts and feelings. While I strive to create a safe environment for our work, I aim to cultivate a space that gently encourages exploration of the areas that may feel uncertain or challenging. This process is not about avoiding discomfort but instead about embracing it as part of healing and repair.

As we embark on this transformative journey together, my ultimate goal is to equip you with the tools and insights necessary to thrive independently. I believe in working efficiently and effectively, with the hope of “firing” my clients as soon as they are ready to embrace all the adventures life has to offer.
