When Life Feels Overwhelming, You’re Not Alone
Do you feel like the weight of anger, anxiety, or difficult decisions is pulling you down? Maybe you’re navigating a season of conflict, struggling to connect with loved ones, or feeling trapped in cycles of negative thinking. Life’s challenges can leave you feeling isolated or unsure of your next step—but you don’t have to face them alone.
Faith-Guided Support for Real Challenges
I’m Christina Okechukwu, M.A., LPC-A, a Licensed Professional Counselor-Associate working under the supervision of Christina Runnels, MA, LPC-S, PMH-C. My approach to therapy is grounded in compassion, understanding, and a belief in the transformative power of hope. As someone who offers both evidence-based methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and a faith-based perspective, I meet clients where they are—whether they seek practical tools, spiritual guidance, or both.
For clients who find strength in their Christian faith, I integrate biblical principles with therapeutic strategies to create a personalized and meaningful experience. Together, we’ll explore how your faith can serve as a source of resilience, clarity, and purpose in overcoming the struggles you face.
Reframing Challenges, Rebuilding Confidence
I specialize in helping children, adolescents, couples, and adults tackle issues like anger management, anxiety, depression, and conflict resolution. In our sessions, we’ll work to uncover and challenge the thoughts that keep you stuck—whether they’re rooted in self-doubt, fear, or past experiences. My goal is to help you reframe those thoughts and build a healthier mindset while creating a safe, non-judgmental space for you to share your feelings.
Whether you’re a parent seeking strategies to support your child’s behavior, a couple navigating tough conversations, or an individual longing for peace and clarity, I’m here to guide you toward practical solutions that fit your unique situation.
Faith, Connection, and Creativity
I believe that healing happens when we connect not only with others but also with ourselves. Outside of therapy, I find inspiration in composing music and spending time with my family and friends—activities that remind me of the importance of connection and creativity. This belief is woven into my work as I help clients rebuild relationships, rediscover hope, and reconnect with their faith.
You Deserve Peace and Purpose
If you’re tired of feeling stuck or overwhelmed, I’m here to help you find the path forward. Together, we’ll navigate your challenges with compassion and faith, equipping you with the tools you need to face life with confidence and strength.
