01 · Who Chioma works with

Chioma works with stress, Anxiety, relationship issues and family conflicts

Chioma lists 20 specialisms and 22 further focus areas. Specialisms are the subjects Chioma chose to list first, which is the closest a listing gets to “this is my actual practice”.

What Chioma says about the work

Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.

Welcome to Better Help! Making the decision to find a therapist can be challenging and finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming. My approach is to make sure that you are comfortable and to provide you with a non-judgmental space to help guide you on your journey.

My name is Chioma (pronounce Chee-o-ma) and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Texas. Licensed in Texas, Oregon, Utah, and Colorado. I earned my Master of Social Work degree, from the University of Texas at Arlington. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, racial trauma, especially those that come from a biracial or multicultural background. I utilize a holistic, and integrative approach when working with clients by using multiple modalities including internal family systems, cognitive behavioral, trauma-informed, and strengths-based. My approach is to help you find your happiness, regain control of your life, and show up as your authentic self.

I believe that the most important part of the therapeutic process is the therapeutic relationship. I aim to help you down your journey and help you reconnect to your mind, body, and soul. This process is about you and if you're ready I would be happy to help you on your journey.

03 · How Chioma works

The 6 approaches Chioma lists, in plain English

These are the clinical methods Chioma lists. The descriptions are Maker Therapy's, not Chioma's - a general explanation of what each method is, so the list means something before you have spoken to anybody. They are not a claim about how Chioma runs a session.

Client-Centred TherapyPerson-centred · Rogerian

The therapist does not steer toward a technique or a diagnosis. They offer sustained, non-judgemental attention and reflect back what they hear, on the premise that people find their own direction when they are genuinely listened to. Often what people mean by “someone who just gets it”.

Cognitive Behavioural TherapyCBT

Structured, present-focused work on the loop between what you think, how you feel and what you then do. Usually means noticing a thought pattern in the room, testing it against evidence, and practising something different between sessions. Among the most heavily researched talking therapies for depression and anxiety.

Mindfulness-Based TherapyMBCT

Trains attention on what is happening right now - body, breath, the thought as it arrives - so distress can be observed rather than automatically acted on. Strongest evidence is in preventing depression from recurring, and it is usually taught as a practice you keep doing outside the session.

Motivational InterviewingMI

A way of talking about change with somebody who is genuinely in two minds about it. The therapist does not argue for the change; they help you say your own reasons out loud, which is the part that predicts whether it happens. Common around substance use and health behaviour.

Trauma-Focused TherapyTF-CBT · trauma-informed

CBT adapted for people whose difficulty is rooted in a frightening or overwhelming event. Pacing is the point: safety and stabilisation come first, the memory itself is approached gradually and only when you are ready, and the aim is that recalling it stops hijacking the present.

Internal Family SystemsIFS

Treats the mind as made up of parts - the critic, the one who withdraws, the one that keeps everything running - each of which is trying to protect you. The work is getting to know them rather than overruling them.

04 · What happens next

From this page to a first session

Chioma practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Chioma's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.

1. A questionnaire, not a booking form

   BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Chioma at this point.

2. Naming Chioma specifically

   BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Chioma is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Chioma.

3. If the caseload is full

   You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.

4. The first conversation

   A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.

5. If the fit is wrong

   Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.

05 · Before you commit

3 questions worth asking Chioma

Built from what Chioma actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Chioma's - Chioma has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.

• “You list both Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy. Which do you lean on with someone like me?”

  Those two point in different directions - one structured and led by the therapist, the other led by you. The answer tells you what the sessions will actually feel like.

• “How do you decide when someone is ready to work on a traumatic memory itself?”

  Pacing is the biggest safety question in trauma work. A clear, unhurried answer here matters more than any credential.

• “How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”

  On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.

07 · Provenance

Where every line on this page came from

Chioma's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 9 Oct 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.

The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.

Maker Therapy is not BetterHelp, does not take bookings, and has not met Chioma. There are no reviews or ratings on this page because we have no way to verify one. If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
