About Ngozi
Dr. Ngozi Okose is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 22 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, ADHD, addictions, codependency, grief, and related issues. Her practice is informed by long experience with multicultural clients and by years in private practice in Houston, Texas.
She uses a mix of practical, evidence-informed methods rather than one fixed model. Sessions focus on what is happening in daily life - symptoms, patterns in relationships, and choices people make when they put others first. She talks through strategies for clearer communication, managing strong emotions, and deciding what boundaries feel realistic.
Her background includes teaching and supervising counselors, and several decades of multinational work. That history shapes how she notices cultural and family patterns that affect behavior now. She also brings training in cognitive behavior approaches and trauma-informed care to assessment and treatment.
In sessions she combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based work, and client-centered principles. That lets her help people practice new skills, name painful patterns, and decide on next steps that fit their life. She emphasizes learning alongside therapy, so clients gain tools they can use after sessions end.
Her practice notes that costs vary with location and that sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site button.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and choose actions that reflect their values. It is useful when someone wants to stop being driven solely by other people’s needs and to take steps toward their own priorities.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying different behaviors to change results. This approach is often used for anxiety, depression, and for shifting people-pleasing or rigid patterns in relationships.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current closeness, boundaries, and trust. It can help people understand why they keep losing themselves around others and practice new ways of relating.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to pick approaches that match the client’s goals, preferences, and day-to-day life. That means experimenting and adjusting strategies together as therapy proceeds.
The original biography does not specify online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make scheduling easier and help fit sessions into a busy week. It can also allow shorter check-ins or phone conversations when that fits better with a client's day or bandwidth. Licensed professionals often adapt exercises and skill practice to the online setting so the work stays practical and applicable.
