About Chinwe

Chinwe Nzerue-Obi is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with ten years of clinical experience. She trained in counseling at the University of Houston Victoria and previously practiced law in Nigeria, bringing a diverse professional background to her therapeutic work.

Background and approach

Chinwe also holds credentials in Christian counseling and a Multicultural Counseling Certification, which inform her culturally aware and faith-sensitive perspective. Her practice emphasizes practical, goal-oriented strategies using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to address a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, addiction, grief, parenting challenges, and ADHD.

Chinwe describes therapy as a collaborative process focused on restoring balance between thoughts, feelings, and behavior while identifying concrete steps clients can take toward change. She has supported clients through major life transitions such as staying in school, coping with family and marital difficulties, and recovering from substance-related problems.

Fluent in English and Igbo, Chinwe accepts international clients and offers flexible session formats to meet varied needs. Her approach blends determination, practical tools, and respect for each person’s background to help clients pursue meaningful, sustainable progress.

Approach-Oriented Online Care with Practical Tools



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to help clients notice and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which can ease symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and support better daily functioning. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes identifying strengths and small, achievable steps toward goals so clients can make tangible progress even when time or resources are limited.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to understand their needs, values, and goals, then tailors techniques from these methods to suit the individual situation. Together they evaluate what feels most useful and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to accommodate different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access therapy from Texas or abroad, support continuity during life changes, and provide flexible ways to practice skills between sessions.
