About Chinyere

Chinyere Tunsill centers her work on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, mood difficulties, and struggles with self-esteem and addiction. She aims to create a warm, accepting environment where clients can explore their concerns and uncover their own solutions with guided support.

Background and approach

Her practice emphasizes a collaborative relationship, where asking thoughtful questions and offering psychoeducation help clients build practical skills and make meaningful changes. With 11 years of clinical experience, Chinyere draws primarily from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy while also integrating Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Motivational Interviewing when appropriate.

She has supported clients through challenges including bipolar disorder, parenting stress, anger, ADHD, substance use, and post-traumatic stress, and she attends to lifestyle factors such as sleep, nutrition, and exercise as part of a holistic approach.

Based in Florida and credentialed as an LCPC and an LMHC, she offers guidance that blends evidence-informed techniques with empathy to help clients move forward through difficult transitions.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Chinyere commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical strategies for managing symptoms like anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are also integrated when clients need tools for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness.

Finding the right approach usually happens collaboratively. The therapist works with each person to clarify goals, evaluate which methods fit their needs, and adjust treatment as progress unfolds so that care reflects the client’s preferences and life circumstances.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to maintain continuity during life transitions. These options support flexible scheduling and let clients choose the format that feels most comfortable for practicing skills, discussing challenges, and tracking progress with a licensed professional.
