About Schavonne
LMHC licensed in Florida with 15 years of professional experience, Schavonne McCarter helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, anger, and depression. She also addresses relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, eating issues, compassion fatigue, and LGBT-related matters. Schavonne uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing in her work.
Schavonne encourages people to talk about what they are facing and to set practical goals. Sessions focus on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, then testing small changes. Motivational Interviewing techniques are used to clarify what matters most and to build reasons for change.
She aims to make sessions straightforward and goal-oriented. Conversations often include skill practice, small homework tasks, and checking what worked between meetings. This helps people see what changes fit their daily life.
Her background spans 15 years in clinical settings in Florida as an LMHC. That experience includes supporting people through life transitions, hospice and end-of-life counseling concerns, and issues related to guilt, shame, forgiveness, and self-love.
Adults who want direct, practical approaches will find the work focused on action and decision points. To begin, people are asked to describe their main concern, current routines, and what has helped or blocked change in the past.

How Schavonne applies CBT and Motivational Interviewing online
Schavonne uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot patterns of thinking that increase anxiety or low mood. CBT in an online context usually means identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing them, and practicing new responses that can be used between sessions. Motivational Interviewing focuses on strengthening a person’s own reasons for change. It involves asking open questions, reflecting back what matters, and helping someone move from uncertainty to action.Choosing an approach is collaborative. Schavonne will review a person’s goals, history, and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. She adjusts the plan based on what the person reports is useful and what feels manageable in everyday life.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. It also means sessions can focus on practical skills and homework that are intended to be used in daily routines.
