Hi! I am a psychologist licensed in Texas and California. I have worked in the mental health field in various capacities for the past 20 years. I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Sociology with a minor in Law and Society and Masters of Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of Southern California in Los Angeles, CA. I earned my Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology from Howard University in Washington, DC. I have worked as a psychologist with the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, Veterans Health Administration and various local and federal law enforcement agencies. I currently own and operate Healthy Families Counseling Center, PLLC, a private psychology practice dedicated to assisting individuals, couples and families heal from trauma, relationship distress and other concerns affecting daily life.
In our first session together, we'll start with introductions and a comprehensive intake assessment to identify the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions
My greatest strength is to provide encouragement and support to clients in order to increase insight and motivation for change.
I love helping women heal from traumatic childhood or relationship experiences. I also love working with adolescents to address anxiety and depressive symptoms while improving self-esteem. Finally, I enjoy helping couples and families improve communication and relationship dynamics. I provide assessment services in order to diagnose a variety of disorders and/or determine employment suitability.

I appreciate Dr. Ray because she does see both sides in our marriage and helps us both to be accountable for our actions. She also has a warm friendly vibe. It allows us to be open and transparent. I appreciate her sessions.

I really loved her personality and approach to this session, and getting me started with therapy. I feel like she was very authentic and warm and humorous, which made me feel more comfortable about sharing information about myself.

I just had my intake session and felt immediately at ease. She’s grounded, open-minded, and very direct in a supportive way. She stayed focused, assessed things quickly, and still kept the conversation light and warm. I really appreciate Dr. Ray’s energy and approach.
