About Ijeoma
Ijeoma Onyejiaka is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 11 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, and challenges like ADHD and grief.
Background and approach
She also supports people facing parenting strain, career shifts, and issues around identity and body image. Sessions are offered in English and Igbo.
Ijeoma draws on several practical methods to help people manage symptoms and rebuild routines. She uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns that keep problems going.
Attachment-based ideas guide work on trust and closeness in relationships. She also integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people live around difficult feelings.
Her style is collaborative and direct. She helps clients set clear goals and practice small, doable skills between sessions.
Conversations include exploring family roles, communication habits, and emotional triggers. The focus is on tools that can be used in day-to-day life.
Ijeoma has experience with a wide range of concerns including eating and sleeping problems, compassion fatigue, codependency, abandonment issues, blended family stress, and coping after disasters. She approaches these topics with attention to culture, faith, and life history.
That means therapy adapts to each person’s background and needs. Work can happen by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging.
International clients may be supported. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used so scheduling fits both the client and therapist.
How different approaches can work online
Ijeoma uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. ACT focuses on values and small actions that move someone toward a better life despite hard emotions. Attachment-Based Therapy is also part of her work to address patterns of closeness, trust, and communication that affect relationships. These ideas help when people want more stable connections or struggle with intimacy.Finding the right approach is part of the process. She works together with each client to choose methods that match their goals, personal history, and what feels most useful. That might mean combining ACT, attachment work, and skill-based CBT tools, and adjusting the plan as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and relational work that benefit from face-to-face interaction. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and texting are well suited to shorter updates, coping check-ins, or practice prompts between sessions. These options make therapy more flexible for people juggling work, caregiving, or travel.
