About Chinyere
Chinyere Tunsill is an LCPC and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 11 years of clinical experience based in Florida. She works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, anger, addictions, ADHD, and parenting concerns. Sessions focus on practical steps and clear strategies rather than vague promises.
Chinyere prefers an active, question-driven style that helps people notice patterns and try different ways of responding. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a main framework. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, and trauma-focused approaches when those fit a person's needs.
In practice she helps clients break problems into manageable pieces. That can mean learning specific skills for handling anger, improving communication, or building better sleep and exercise habits to support mood. Sessions include straightforward teaching, skill practice, and planning real-life experiments to test new behaviors.
Her background includes a Master of Arts and an Educational Specialist degree in Mental Health Counseling. The profile lists licensure as LCPC and LMHC, and she has experience working with adults and young people in clinical settings. She emphasizes that progress comes from both effort and the quality of the therapeutic relationship.
People who want direct tools for handling frustration or long-standing patterns of anger may find her approach useful. She combines evidence-based methods with practical problem solving and attention to daily habits that affect mood.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Chinyere commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thinking and try alternative behaviors. CBT sessions often include setting small experiments, practicing skills between meetings, and tracking what works in daily life.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to teach concrete tools for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. DBT techniques focus on emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication in stressful moments.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide whether CBT, DBT skills, or motivational techniques fit their goals and current needs. That decision is based on the client's situation and preferences, and can change over time.
The biography does not list specific session formats for online work, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. In practical terms, this can help someone practice skills between meetings and integrate new habits into daily routines without rearranging too much of their schedule.
