About Asuqwo
Asuqwo Ekene is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with eight years of experience in mental health. He focuses on helping people who are coping with anxiety, depression, grief, life changes, relationship and intimacy concerns, and other common struggles. He offers a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can speak openly about what’s hard for them.
He has worked with adults across different stages of life and supports people dealing with trauma, chronic illness, anger, and compassion fatigue.
Background and approach
Sessions also address stress, self-esteem, parenting pressures, career decisions, and feelings of isolation or loneliness. His background includes attention to multicultural concerns and the effects of prejudice and discrimination. Asuqwo uses client-centered methods that prioritize the person’s perspective.
He blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts affect feelings and actions, with solution-focused techniques that aim for practical steps forward. He leans on strengths to help people move through problems in ways that fit their life. In the first session he will ask what brought someone to therapy and what they hope to change.
From there he and the client set clear goals and try manageable steps each week. The approach is collaborative and adjusted to each person’s needs. Sessions may include talking through painful memories, practicing new ways of thinking, and trying straightforward coping skills.
The focus is on measurable, realistic progress and on building tools people can use outside of sessions.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Options
Asuqwo uses client-centered work to keep the person’s perspective central, helping people speak about what matters to them and make therapy fit their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and teaches practical exercises to change how someone feels and behaves. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, concrete steps and goals to create forward momentum when problems feel overwhelming.Finding the right approach is part of the work. He will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Together they pick or combine methods and adjust them over time so the plan matches the client’s needs and pace.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation when that helps. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to fit therapy around work, school, or caregiving by allowing shorter, more frequent check-ins.
