About Ngozi
Dr. Ngozi Okose is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with 22 years of clinical experience. She offers a calm, approachable style and aims to help people manage stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma, depression, ADHD, and other emotional challenges.
Dr. Okose prioritizes practical, personalized care and works to tailor therapy to each person's needs. She draws on a mix of evidence-based approaches to match what best fits each client.
Background and approach
Sessions tend to focus on clear goals, skills people can use between meetings, and making decisions that improve daily life. She brings long experience working with people from many cultural backgrounds, including immigrants and refugees from a range of countries. In the room she emphasizes empathy, patience, and steady support.
Her background includes teaching, supervising counselors, and decades of clinical work in independent practice. That experience informs how she assesses problems and plans treatment with people. Dr.
Okose uses methods such as acceptance and commitment work, attachment-informed strategies, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, and dialectical behavior skills. She adapts these approaches rather than applying a single protocol. Her practice also addresses issues like grief, addiction, intimacy, parenting challenges, body image, chronic illness, and caregiver stress.
Therapy is offered in multiple online formats to fit different schedules and needs. People who want to start can use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule sessions based on the therapist’s availability.
How these approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) invites people to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them while clarifying personal values and taking steps that matter. It can help with anxiety, depression, and making choices during life changes.Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current bonds and patterns. It helps people understand relationship fears, build trust, and change interaction habits that cause ongoing conflict or distance.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns. It’s useful for anxiety, depression, insomnia, and behavior challenges.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest one or a mix of methods. Decisions about techniques are made together and can change as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video is good for a therapy-like conversation and teaching skills. Phone works when bandwidth is limited and for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging allow ongoing contact and quick reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and to get consistent support regardless of location.
