Odira Ughanze

You may be used to holding everything together for everyone else, but lately the weight feels heavier. Anxiety may be harder to quiet. Your relationships may feel strained. Grief, stress, burnout, family conflict, or major life changes may have left you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of what to do next. On the outside, you may look “fine,” but inside you may feel tired of carrying so much alone. At Regent Counseling PLLC, you do not have to figure it out by yourself. I’m Odira Ughanze, LPC, Clinical Director at Regent Counseling in Abilene, Texas. I provide counseling for individuals ages 12 and up, couples, and families through in-person therapy in Abilene and secure online therapy across Texas and Colorado. My goal is to help you feel heard, supported, and equipped to move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and connection. My approach is warm, collaborative, practical, and strengths-based. I believe you are the expert on your life, and my role is to help you slow down, make sense of what feels heavy, identify patterns that keep you stuck, and build tools you can use outside of session. Therapy with me is not about judgment or quick fixes. It is about creating a steady, supportive space where real and sustainable change can begin. I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, stress and burnout, grief and loss, self-esteem concerns, relationship challenges, communication issues, family conflict, parenting stress, and life transitions. I draw from evidence-based approaches including CBT, ACT, mindfulness, solution-focused therapy, and relationship-focused therapy to tailor counseling to your specific needs and goals. Taking the first step can feel vulnerable, especially if you are used to handling things on your own. You do not need the perfect words or a clear plan to begin. If you are looking for a therapist in Texas or Colorado who is compassionate, practical, and focused on helping you move forward, I invite you to schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation to see if we are a good fit. Evening and weekend therapy appointments are available to better support busy individuals, couples, and families.
