As a young minority woman and board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP), I know how important it is to feel understood and comfortable with your provider, and I strive to create a supportive, judgment-free space where clients can fully be themselves. Hi, I'm Agnelyne Ndifor, Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP), board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC), with experience in emergency and outpatient psychiatric care. I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, attention-deficit hyperactivity (ADHD), trauma, mood challenges, stress, and life transitions. Many of my clients are looking for a safe space to feel heard without judgment, learn to manage their emotions, and regain balance and confidence. As a young Black woman and minority provider, I understand the importance of culturally sensitive care, and I strive to create an environment where clients feel comfortable being their authentic selves.

I am available for LPC Supervision in both TX and CT. I hire highly motivated, self-driven associates who are eager to learn about private practice, the methods studied in graduate school, as well as the methods I've written over my years as a counselor and supervisor. I pride myself in offering a path toward high-end therapeutic care in a private practice setting. My approach to personal growth with clients (and associates) is heart-first, inclusive, and unapologetically outside the box. I’m less interested in “fixing” you and more interested in really knowing you, your patterns, your pain, your humor, your history, and the parts of you that are still becoming. I blend solid clinical training with creativity, curiosity, and a deep respect for every walk of life. Together, we’ll rethink old stories, challenge what no longer fits, and build something more honest and alive. If you’re longing for a therapist who brings both clinical depth and real-world humanity, you’re in the right place.

*NOW EXCLUSIVELY OFFERING TELEHEALTH COUNSELING* I work to provide a non-threatening and non-judgmental environment where clients feel free to express their innermost thoughts, feelings, and ideas. Therapy is interactive, and I provide challenges along with a unique understanding of each person's individual life and struggles. I believe in each client's individuality and therefore, do not stick with one theory or technique. Therapy is uniquely customized for each individual, couple, and family depending on needs and personalities. I feel everyone has the potential to be happy and fulfilled in life, they may just need the push and encouragement towards the right direction for them. I want to help clients achieve their hopes and dreams while identifying and removing the blocks that are potentially standing in their way. Everyone deserves a great life, and I work towards empowering people to realize their full potential.

I help adults, teenagers, and couples effectively manage depression, anger, unhealthy addictions, relationship struggles, and anxiety & stress. Through talk therapy, we identify the negative thoughts, experiences, and beliefs that are causing your pain. The way you perceive yourself, others, and the world impacts how you experience life. As a Level 3 TEAM CBT therapist, I specialize in helping you understand those painful feelings and change the way you think (and ultimately feel). I really take a whole person philosophy, giving consideration to mental, emotional, social, spiritual, and physical health. With an end goal to help my clients live a more fulfilling life, I recognize the importance of motivation and finds it critical to explore meaning and purpose in my clients' lives. Change is really hard, especially when you are in pain. Know that you are not alone!

In my experience, most people seek therapeutic help for discrete, treatable issues: they are stuck in unfulfilling jobs or relationships, they can’t reach their goals, are fearful of change and depressed as a result. It doesn’t take years of therapy to get to the bottom of those kinds of problems. For some of my patients, it doesn’t even take a whole session. Therapy can, and should, focus on goals and outcomes, and people should be able to graduate from it. In my practice, the people who spent years in therapy before coming to me were able to face their issues, calm their anxieties and reach life goals quickly — often within weeks.

I specialize in helping clients disarm trauma and abuse, paralyzing anger, and relationship issues. Many times, these problems are responsible for exaggerating negative events that scare away possibilities and cover over any appreciation of a person's life. We will work together to help you disempower these problems so that a space can be created where possibilities can re-emerge, and you can explore your life's potential and renewed relationships. A new chapter in your life is waiting to be opened and discovered.
