About Constance
Constance Akonumbo is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oklahoma with seven years of experience. She lists working with stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, self-esteem, depression, ADHD, addictions, relationship and family issues, grief, sleep problems, anger, bipolar concerns, and coping with life changes.
Constance began her career in teaching and nursing before moving into counseling. That varied background informs how she listens and responds. She frames therapy as a practical partnership that asks for honesty and effort from both people in the room.
Her style is interactive and direct. Sessions focus on identifying what is getting in the way and practicing concrete changes. She uses approaches such as cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thinking and behavior, and person-centered ideas to center the client's perspective.
Constance also draws on acceptance and commitment ideas and dialectical behavior skills to help clients manage intense emotions and commit to values-based steps. She mentions narrative and existential influences when people want to reframe their story or find meaning during life transitions.
She integrates coaching elements when clients want practical planning and skill-building. Constance emphasizes accountability and clear steps, while also recognizing spiritual resources are important to some clients. The work typically involves talking through problems, trying new behaviors, and checking what does or does not help.
People looking for a counselor who favors active, skills-focused sessions may find her approach a fit. Those interested in specific session options should confirm current formats before booking.
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Constance uses cognitive behavioral approaches to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behavior. CBT helps when worry, avoidance, or negative thinking patterns get in the way of daily life.She also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) ideas, which focus on noticing difficult feelings and committing to actions that match personal values. ACT can help when someone wants to act differently despite ongoing anxiety or uncertainty.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Constance treats therapy as a collaboration and will help figure out which methods fit a person's goals and preferences. That may mean trying a few techniques and adjusting between sessions based on what helps.
The therapist biography did not list specific online session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Some people find phone or video sessions let them practice skills in real-life settings and move more quickly from talking to trying changes.
