About Agyenim
Dr. Agyenim Akuamoah-Boateng is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina with 23 years of experience. He offers practical, down-to-earth counseling for people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, depression, and relationship or intimacy-related struggles.
Sessions are aimed at helping clients make steady progress and reach goals that matter to them. He has worked in mental health and substance use fields since 1998 and has been in licensed independent practice since 2001.
Background and approach
That long experience includes helping people with co-occurring medical, mental health, and substance use concerns. He draws on techniques that support recovery and behavior change while also addressing emotional and relational patterns.
In sessions he uses approaches such as Jungian therapy to attend to deeper meaning, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to focus on values and action, and Attachment-Based and Client-Centered methods to strengthen connection and self-understanding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tools are used when practical skills are needed to manage symptoms like sleep problems, anger, or anxiety.
Many clients work on addiction recovery, coping with life changes, or rebuilding self-esteem and relationships. The work can include recovery skills training, setting achievable goals, and building daily routines that support change. He aims for a collaborative style where the client’s priorities guide each step.
People who choose him tend to want straightforward guidance plus space to reflect. He helps clients identify small, realistic steps and stays focused on what will improve daily life and long-term well-being.

Online support
Approach-driven care delivered online
Jungian therapy pays attention to dreams, symbols, and deeper personal meaning to help people understand recurring patterns and life themes. It can be useful when someone wants to explore identity, life purpose, or the feelings beneath everyday problems. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and actions rather than getting stuck on painful thoughts. It helps people commit to small, meaningful steps even when difficult feelings are present. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people form more supported ways of relating.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each client about their goals, life situation, and what methods feel comfortable. Together they decide which approaches to use and adjust them as progress is made, keeping the client's needs and preferences in view.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week. Video is good for face-to-face conversation, phone can be lower bandwidth, live chat suits quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing brief contact between sessions. These options give practical flexibility while maintaining a steady course of therapy.
