Jettana Okoye, LCSW created J. Okoye Wellness to make a safe space for individuals from all walks of life to feel safe, seen, challenged, and grow.

As an African American woman, Jettana understands that mental health in Black and Brown communities across the United States still has a looming stigma that needs to be diminished. 

This need led her to leverage her Master's Degree in Social Work from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, license as a Clinical Social Worker, and certification as an Integrative Health Coach from Duke University to develop holistic, goal-oriented programs for those that are looking to utilize foundations of mental health and wellness to create a better life for themselves. 

 Jettana couples psychotherapy experiences with evidence-based treatments including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy(DBT), Solution Focused Therapy (SFBT), Mindfulness-Based (MBCT), and many others with integrative health coaching to ensure that each client receives personalized action plans that reflect their holistic life and goals.

Her mission is to continue the work to build equity in mental health, create libraries of resources to aid clients way beyond sessions, and ensure that everyone has access to the tools necessary to build a meaningful life they love. 

 When Jettana isn't working with her clients, she enjoys spending time with her husband, daughter, family, and friends. As a former collegiate athlete, she still loves fitness and working out while helping fellow athletes build strong mindset foundations.
