About Austine

Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with five years of clinical experience, Austine Nwaobi helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, mood disorders, and concerns around self-esteem and bipolar disorder. He works directly with common problems such as panic attacks, impulsivity, isolation, and patterns that undermine self-worth.

Austine uses conversational, goal-focused sessions that put the person’s priorities first. He draws on client-centered principles to follow what matters to the individual. He also uses cognitive behavioral strategies to identify unhelpful thinking and DBT skills to teach emotional regulation and distress tolerance.

Sessions often include practical skill practice, short behavioral experiments, and reflection on recent events. He may use motivational interviewing to clarify goals and increase readiness for change. Narrative techniques can help reframe difficult experiences and reduce shame around past behavior.

People meet him for help with sudden panic, ongoing low mood, frequent anger, or the ups and downs of bipolar symptoms. He also addresses related patterns such as control issues, paranoia, self-harm thoughts, and difficulties connecting with others.

His style is straightforward and focused on what changes are possible now. He asks about current stressors and builds steps people can try between sessions. To begin, users choose the online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How his approaches work in online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters to the person. In practice that means the therapist reflects concerns back, asks which problems to prioritize, and adapts sessions to the client’s stated goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Typical CBT work online includes tracking moods, testing a different thought in daily life, and reviewing what changed. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings concrete skills for managing intense emotions and reducing impulsive actions. Online DBT-style work often centers on practicing breathing, grounding, and short behavioral strategies between appointments.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust what they use based on what helps. Clients collaborate on which skills to learn and which problems to target first.

The original biography did not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a weeknight or a work break, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce commute time. Therapists can assign brief between-session practice that fits home or daily routines, which helps skills stick without promising a particular format.
