About me

I believe that each one of us has the answers to our problems inside of us. However, sometimes we need someone on our journey to help us unlock those answers by asking the right questions---things you may not have considered, presenting proven strategies, and psychoeducation. Although you will make strides with the energy and effort you give, the number one predictor that one will improve is the quality of the therapeutic relationship. I hope to provide a place of warmth, compassion, and acceptance in which you feel empowered and free to approach any concerns. I am here to help you along on your journey.

I am a licensed mental health counselor in Arizona, Florida, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Utah. I graduated from Florida Atlantic University with an Educational Specialist degree in Mental Health Counseling. I also earned a Master's of Art from Roosevelt University. I have experience working with youth and their families as well as adults. The theoretical framework that I usually draw from is Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy. I also apply Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing Techniques as needed. I address trauma, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, interpersonal skills, self-esteem, anger, problem-solving, and decision-making. I also have experience with parent management training and substance abuse. In conjunction with therapy, I believe that exercise, proper nutrition, and good sleep hygiene are an integral part of overcoming mental health concerns.

Change, even positive change can be challenging and uncomfortable. I hope to provide the necessary support as a champion of change.

When I started, I was totally non communicative, since then, she has been great. I see things with a better perspective, I now can reframe things, I try to see things differently, and started following the exercises. Ms. Tunsill makes you do the work, without you feeling you are doing work. Thanks to her, I’ve come a long way In being a better me.

It feels good not to feel judged and communicate any and everything that is on my mind and Chinyere is making me more comfortable with this experience. She is very good with giving advice and inspiration no matter what I am going through in my life. I'm looking forward to having more sessions with her in the future.
