About Chabreah
Chabreah Alston is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Massachusetts with 10 years of experience. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship concerns, addictions, grief, and issues around identity and intimacy. Her work also includes attention to ADHD, compassion fatigue, career strain, and blended family issues.
Chabreah uses several evidence-informed approaches. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and Client-Centered Therapy. Sessions focus on practical steps, emotion awareness, and clarifying personal values. Conversations are collaborative and aim to identify what helps day to day.
She describes an integrative style that also considers attachment patterns, identity, and lived experience. Chabreah pays attention to how relationships and systems affect coping and decisions. This includes concerns such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, communication problems, and codependency.
Her practice name and past training referenced creative arts and drama therapy methods, and she brings creativity into work when clients find that useful. That may look like expressive exercises or structured conversations about behavior and feelings. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to use.
Sessions are conducted in English and take place with a Massachusetts-based LMHC. People starting therapy are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How Chabreah’s approaches translate to online sessions

It can help with anxiety, stress, and making changes that matter in daily life.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in relationships and how they shape emotional responses. It is useful for intimacy-related concerns, attachment issues, and communication problems in blended households.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches practical skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. This can help with emotion regulation, impulsive behavior, and relationship conflicts.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That process may include trying different techniques and adjusting based on what helps.
