Therapists in Texas

Hello, I'm Sam, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker-Supervisor and military retiree. My graduate degree is from Fayetteville State University, and I have over 10 years of experience as an independent clinician, helping adults navigate career stress, burnout, financial challenges, and relationship issues. My goal is to empower clients to confront life’s obstacles head-on and grow into the best versions of themselves through practical, compassionate, and results-driven therapy.

Welcome! I'm Jan Quirl. Take a moment to acknowledge you've taken the first step towards improving your mental health because, let's be honest - starting therapy can be empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns related to anxiety, depression, and/or self-care. I focus on helping clients develop assertive communication & boundaries with themselves and those around them that can help improve their quality of life. Counseling can promote personal development in whatever way you may be seeking and help build the life you so deeply deserve. If that's what you're looking for, I'm here when you're ready to share.

Over the years, I've had the opportunity to help lots of men deal with tough problems like anger, work-related stress, social anxiety, cheating in relationships, as well as struggles with sex and porn addiction. My goal is to help you find your inner strength, bounce back from hard times, and build better relationships. Are you getting angry more often and have trouble getting along with coworkers? Do you feel tired most of the time, so you don't seem to enjoy things like you did before, and now spend more time alone? Are you and your spouse fighting a lot and thinking about divorce? Do you do things that seem like a quick fix but don’t really make life better? If these things sound familiar, then the good news is that you don't have to keep doing it alone. There's hope for brighter days ahead, and all from the comfort of your own home. No matter what’s going on in your life, choosing online therapy shows that you want to feel better and understand yourself more. Also, online therapy makes it easy to get the support you need on your schedule in the comfort and safety of your home.

How is your new year going? Are you feeling stuck, frustrated, overwhelmed, grief, sadness, or anxious regarding your life? Do you feel as if you are always in your head? Are you ready to try something different? If so, I may be able to help you. My name is Jessica, and I am a Bilingual (English and Spanish) Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas. I am committed to being an agent for positive change. I have always had a love and desire to help people.

The human experience is not something that always works based on logic. Our brains are wonderful tools that can occasionally get stuck in a survival mode that leaves us feeling helpless and terrified. We can become stuck logical loops, anxious cycles, helpless before the fear of the unknown, or in a dark depression that stops us from continuing our previous goals and fun hobbies. Our past can be a reason for this. Sometimes it might be recent events at just the wrong time. It can even be a combination of small things that seemed to always shift never going away. My philosophy of treatment is to teach my clients how mind and body work so that they can make their choice in how they choose to live and interact with others. I am trained in EMDR, hypnosis, and IFS and apply all in working with PTSD, trauma, anxiety, depression and for pain management from physical illness. A person's mind is like a garden, cultivated or left to it's own devices it will always grow. When carefully tended it is a thing of beauty, but if left alone it is a mess of weeds. In understanding the thoughts and beliefs you have about the world and how you can shape them, you can learn to thrive. With a new perspective you can change everything.

Hi, I’m Ayesha—a licensed professional counselor based in Dallas, Texas. I offer virtual therapy across the state, supporting adult individuals through life’s challenges. If you're feeling overwhelmed by low moods, intrusive thoughts, or body image distress, you’re not alone. These experiences can often lead to anxiety, depression, stress, and emotional fatigue.

Hi! My name is Mira and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas. I graduated with a Masters of Arts in Clinical Mental Health from Midwestern State University. I also graduated from the University of Texas with a Bachelors of Arts in Human Development and Family Sciences and a concentration on Families and Personal Relationships.

My goal as a therapist is to help my clients embrace their authentic self and discover new paths of healing and growth.

I specialize in creating a healing, affirming space for LGBTQ+ folks, women, and anyone navigating the lasting impacts of trauma, oppression, or identity-based stress. My approach is trauma-informed, client-centered, and rooted in compassion. I primarily use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), and Brené Brown’s The Daring Way™ curriculum to support clients working through PTSD, complex trauma, anxiety, depression, identity exploration, and challenges related to gender, sexuality, relationships, and embodiment.

I’m a licensed clinical social worker practicing in Houston, Texas with extensive experience in mental health treatment across diverse populations, especially ethnicity, gender, age, religious, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status. My journey in the mental health field began during my undergraduate studies, where I first became involved in victim advocacy. This experience deepened my understanding of social dynamics, (in)justice and human behavior, leading to dual bachelor’s degrees in Sociology and Women’s Studies. While pursuing my graduate degree, I worked at the National Domestic Violence Hotline, further honing my skills in crisis intervention and critical thinking/problem-solving . After earning a Master of Science in Social Work from The University of Texas at Austin, I completed a post-graduate fellowship focused on psychiatric rehabilitation of veterans with severe mental illness. I further advanced my clinical skills when joining The Menninger Clinic staff, where I spent five years specializing in the treatment of business professionals facing mental health crises, young adults navigating the transition into adulthood, and clients experiencing severe mental health challenges, including suicidal ideation. During the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, after recognizing the urgent need for increased access to mental health care I established my private practice, Therapy by Ivy, PLLC. Since then I have offered individual telehealth sessions to adult clients seeking to improve their mental health and enhance their lives. In 2023, I expanded my practice to include in-person sessions while continuing to provide telehealth sessions. Based in the Houston Heights area, I am proud to offer flexible session options, accept most major insurance plans, and self-pay sliding fee for the uninsured or underinsured.

I have always had the conscious goal of supporting others with being able to overcome their hardships and internal challenges that prevents them from being successful. I am a firm believer that in life we have all experienced some type of challenge that will impact our thoughts and emotions. For some people the challenge is more difficult than others and they will experience greater hardship and internal challenges that will send them on a spiral to the unknown. Being a therapist has always been a desire of mine to support others with understanding their thoughts, feelings, beliefs and behaviors associated with how they feel.

I find that trauma is typically the most common underlying issue that contributes to anxiety, depression, substance use, relationship problems and a lack of self-esteem. I specialize in the treatment of trauma using several approaches: Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT): Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR); and Polyvagal therapy.

I'm a therapist with 15 years of experience working with diverse communities and individuals. I have advanced training in several evidence-based therapies, including EMDR, Prolonged Exposure, DBT, and Internal Family Systems.  I specialize in helping clients who have experienced trauma, anxiety, and difficulties with emotional regulation. My approach involves creating a safe and collaborative space where we can work together to address your unique needs and goals. I believe in fostering a strong therapeutic relationship built on trust, empathy, and understanding, which allows us to explore your experiences and work towards healing and growth
