Getting to know Rhonda Stephanie Okonkwo

Hey there, I’m Rhonda! Do you have trouble managing anxiety and feelings of depression? Do you need assistance in processing a very difficult situation that you experienced? I help individuals identify problems that negatively impact their daily lives and work alongside them to address any barriers to their well-being. We can work together to address your spiritual and emotional needs to help you continue building a stronger sense of self. I also use mindfulness exercises and narration to promote self reflection and awareness. I specialize in working with Black women - including parents, teens and young women. I am a survivor who works with individuals who have experienced sexual abuse, sexual trauma and/or sex trafficking. I provide healing spaces for families who have endured generational cycles of abuse. I am queer friendly and affirming. In our sessions together, I will bring an open ear, no judgment and compassion so that you are able to overcome any hurdles that you been feeling and experiencing. Most importantly, I want to be someone that can provide a safe space for you to be yourself.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

This was my first session and I feel like a weight has been lifted off me and I can breathe a little deeper now. Thank you for creating a safe space and being to warm and welcoming.
We had an intake session where she was clearly under the weather, but she pushed through to provide care for me. That meant a lot.
I like that she makes me feel heard and not judged. I feel like she understands me and that’s a first for me. I really feel this is a great and natural fit.
Rhonda is amazing!
