About Ngozi
Dr. Ngozi Okose is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 22 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, depression, grief, and family of origin issues. Dr. Okose also helps people dealing with ADHD, addictions, eating and sleeping concerns, and career or parenting stresses.
She uses a mix of established methods rather than a single rigid style. That approach lets her match techniques to each person's needs, drawing on cognitive behavioral tools to shift unhelpful thoughts and on attachment-based ideas to address recurring relational patterns. She also uses acceptance and commitment ideas and skills from dialectical behavior therapy when those fit the situation.
Her background includes many years in higher education and long experience working with culturally diverse clients. Before private practice in Houston she taught counseling at university level and supervised counselors in training. Those roles shaped her emphasis on clear explanations and practical skills people can use day to day.
Sessions tend to focus on identifying patterns that began in the family of origin and on learning concrete ways to respond differently now. Conversations often include skills practice, behavioral experiments, and focused reflection about relationship roles and expectations. She brings decades of clinical work to those practical steps.

Therapeutic approaches used and online practice
Dr. Okose draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people notice and change thinking and behavior patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, or sleep and eating problems. CBT often includes straightforward skill practice and small experiments to test new ways of coping.She also uses attachment-based therapy to look at how early family roles and expectations affect current relationships. That approach focuses on recognizing repeated interaction patterns and trying different responses to improve closeness and communication.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist and client talk about goals, try methods, and adjust as needed so the work fits the person's situation and preferences.
