Welcome! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida, with nearly 20 years of clinical experience. I spent many years working in both outpatient and inpatient settings and am currently working in Private Practice. I have worked with diverse clientele on such issues as: depression, anxiety, anger, grief/loss, life transitions, parenting, family and relationship concerns, trauma, addictions, identity and self-esteem, emotional impact of chronic illness, and issues specific to military and military families.
My therapeutic approach is rooted in a Client-Centered framework. That means that this is your therapeutic process, not mine. It is my professional and ethical responsibility to meet you where you are in your process and help you get where you want to be, as you see it, by utilizing the appropriate therapeutic modalities. I wholeheartedly believe that trust and honesty are the primary foundation for a comfortable and effective therapeutic relationship. I will regularly ask that you check in with how you are feeling about the direction and effectiveness of our work together.
Seeking help in a time of crisis or transition is often the hardest part of the process. Congratulations! You have already taken that first step! I look forward to walking this journey alongside of you!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Chani Cochran. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Chani is my fourth therapist and the only one I have felt completely understood, validated but challenged. I look forward to our weekly meetings, even on days when I feel like I don't need it. Her knowledge and relatability is unmatched

Chani is the best therapist I’ve ever worked with. She is so good at identifying the root to my problems and because of that I feel like I’ve been making a lot of progress. She’s also been super flexible with my crazy work schedule which has made it easier for me to be able to do therapy. I’m so grateful for Chani and I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking therapy.
