I hold a master's in marriage, couple and family counseling from George Fox, where I also focused my studies on trauma therapy through the trauma response institute. I specialize in trauma therapy through the ages, as well as family trauma therapy
Dr. Paul Okoronkwo is a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with 5 years of experience in treating adolescents and adults with depression, anxiety, panic disorder, ADHD, insomnia, and mood disorders. He has worked in multiple mental health hospitals and healthcare facilities since 2015. He received his master's and doctoral degrees from Walden University.
My passion is helping people navigate anxiety, depression, and life transitions across the lifespan. I support those facing challenges in young adulthood, work stress, self-confidence struggles, impostor syndrome, relationship and family conflict, parenting, retirement, and the search for meaning at every stage of life. Don't hesitate to reach out with any questions!
My therapeutic approach is anchored in trauma informed, creative and mind-body practices, ensuring that the people with whom I work receive high quality care that addresses their concerns at the heart, as this is where we see real, transformational change. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, a Level 2 Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, (CCTP-II) and a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional (CCATP).
I specialize in supporting women navigating complex experiences that often go misunderstood. This includes women who have experienced harm within spiritual or religious communities—whether that's spiritual abuse, religious trauma, or the complicated grief of leaving a faith tradition. I also work with women managing anxiety, depression, and interpersonal trauma.
If you've felt silenced, questioned your own reality, or struggled to trust yourself after difficult experiences, you're not alone. My practice is a place where your story matters, your feelings are valid, and healing is possible.
It is actually difficult to say what my "ideal client" would be- an individual who is willing to look at the hard and scary stuff- face it- grow from it- put it beside them and no longer allow it to be what they see the world through. They desire to increase their self-awareness and make changes based on their increased self-awareness- thus finding more comfort in their own skin.
I believe therapy should feel safe, human, and supportive—not cold or clinical. I’m a licensed therapist who genuinely cares about the people I work with, and I see you as a whole person, not just a diagnosis or a problem to fix. Whether you’re coming in feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected in your relationship, or unsure where to start, you’re welcome here exactly as you are. I work with teens (13+) and adults, individuals and couples, and I value honesty, compassion, and real connection in the therapy space. My goal is to help you feel understood, supported, and empowered in your growth.
I am a licensed mental health counselor in Washington with over 15 years of experience in counseling, holistic health coaching, and empowering others to live to their full potential. I am originally from Oregon and attended college in San Diego. My experiences have allowed me to work with children, adolescents, and adults in a variety of settings and roles to include traditional in-office therapy, teletherapy, educational institutions, as well as the honor of being welcomed into clients' homes.
I provide a safe, supportive space for individuals. We negotiate together how to optimize your experience of living life, your relationships, your work, and we continue to build on that. I believe that we all have the capacity to heal and build the life that we want to live.
I also train and supervise associate level counselors in the states of Washington and Louisiana.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Vancouver
Searching for therapists in Vancouver starts with knowing what kind of support you want. People look for therapy for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, and life transitions. As you compare Vancouver therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and therapy style match your needs. Provider bios can help you see whether a therapist uses approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
Vancouver offers local therapy options, with additional access across nearby communities like Camas, Washougal, and Battle Ground. Some people prefer in-person counseling in Vancouver, while others choose virtual therapy because it fits better with work, school, caregiving, or commute schedules. When narrowing your search, consider appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is available. Reading profiles before booking can also help you understand how each therapist describes their communication style and what to expect in sessions.
Therapy in Vancouver, WA can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose from therapists who are accepting new patients. You can browse therapists, compare bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
