Chinyere Tunsill

Chinyere Tunsill is a licensed counselor who helps people work through anger, stress, anxiety, and related struggles. She aims to create a warm, accepting space so people feel understood and able to try new ways of coping. Her style emphasizes practical tools and clear conversation so clients can take steps outside sessions.

She draws mainly from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, using concrete techniques to notice thoughts and change unhelpful habits. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used when people need tools for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Motivational Interviewing techniques support people working through substance use or other changes where motivation wavers.

Chinyere has worked in counseling for 11 years and holds an Educational Specialist degree in Mental Health Counseling from Florida Atlantic University and a Master of Arts from Roosevelt University. Her listed credentials include LCPC and LMHC, and she is licensed to practice in multiple states. Her background includes work with adults and youth in settings that addressed trauma, mood disorders, parenting challenges, and substance use concerns.

In sessions she blends teaching and questioning to help clients uncover their own solutions. She also discusses lifestyle factors like exercise, sleep, and nutrition as parts of overall progress. The approach is collaborative: the client’s goals guide which skills and strategies are tried.

Change can feel uncomfortable, and Chinyere presents herself as a steady supporter through that process. She helps people set manageable steps and celebrates the progress made along the way.

How therapeutic approaches work in online care

Chinyere commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression. It often involves simple exercises between sessions to practice new ways of thinking and acting.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy provides concrete skills for regulating strong emotions, handling crisis moments, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. These skills help people manage anger, impulsivity, and intense mood swings with step-by-step tools.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, symptoms, and daily life to decide which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow regular check-ins when life gets hectic. Because specific session formats were not listed in the biography, confirm which options are offered before booking. Many people find that meeting with a licensed professional remotely helps them maintain consistency while balancing family, work, and other obligations; the therapist will help adapt sessions to what best fits each person’s routine.
