Psychotherapy

Compassionate, client-centered care — with the option for faith-based integration.

At Promised Hope PLLC, we believe true healing encompasses the mind, body, and spirit. Our psychotherapy services offer a safe and supportive space for individuals to process emotional challenges, build resilience, and explore meaningful solutions. Whether you’re navigating stress, relationship struggles, or seeking clarity and peace, we’re here to walk with you.

What is Psychotherapy?

Psychotherapy, also known as talk therapy, is a collaborative process that focuses on improving mental and emotional health through guided conversation. We use supportive techniques to help you better understand your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors — and empower you to make changes that support your well-being.

We currently offer supportive and solution-focused sessions. For more complex needs, such as trauma recovery or long-term therapy, we provide referrals to trusted licensed therapists.

Anxiety, stress, and worry
Depression and hopelessness
Grief and loss
Identity and purpose

Forgiveness and emotional healing
Relationship conflict and boundaries
Spiritual growth and renewal
Life transitions and decision-making

Optional Faith Integration

At Promised Hope, we honor each individual’s beliefs and values. While our core approach to psychotherapy is evidence-based and client-centered, we also offer an optional faith integration component for those who wish to explore spiritual perspectives alongside their therapeutic work. This element is always:

Client-Led: You decide if and when you’d like to incorporate faith-based concepts—there is no pressure or expectation.
Respectful: We welcome conversations about your spiritual journey, beliefs, or questions, without judgment.
Flexible: Faith integration can take many forms—scriptural reflections, prayerful practices, or discussion of how faith influences coping strategies—and is tailored to your comfort level.

How It Works

Completely Voluntary: If you prefer secular therapy, faith integration will not be mentioned or suggested.
Pace & Preference: You guide the depth and frequency of any faith-related discussions.
Collaboration & Referrals: If at any point you wish to talk with a trusted pastoral counselor or spiritual mentor, we’ll support you in finding the right referral.

Expanding in the Future

We are building toward having a licensed counseling team to offer more comprehensive therapeutic care. In the future, Promised Hope will welcome licensed counselors as part of our team to serve a broader range of emotional and behavioral health needs.

For clients seeking deeper faith-integrated therapy, there will be designated licensed Christian counselors available to provide biblically grounded support within a clinical framework.

Currently, psychotherapy is provided by Janie Ugwuegbu, PMHNP, a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner offering supportive therapy with the option for faith-based integration.

Stay tuned as we grow—our heart is to walk alongside you with compassion, clarity, and care.
