I was born and raised in Texas. I love the Texas Summer nights and Autumn days. I grew up in a blended family of my mother, grandparents, biological brother, and many foster brothers and sisters. Let's just say things were always interesting, but I wouldn't trade it for the world. Those experiences helped shape who I am and gave me insight into a variety of people. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC-S) and a Certified Sex Therapist (CST). I received a Doctorate of Education in Counseling Psychology from Argosy University. I have a Master of Education in Counseling and Human Development from Hardin-Simmons University and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Abilene Christian University.

I enjoy music, different forms of dance and fitness, cooking and eating new dishes, as well as, traveling. Also, I am one third of The RePsychled Podcast, which is a podcast that focuses on educating and bringing mental health awareness to minority communities in a down to earth way.

My name is Maudlyn Howell-Nwaogwugwu. I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Texas. I obtained my master's degree in counseling psychology in 2005 and my bachelor’s in psychology/sociology in 1996. I have worked inpatient, outpatient, and currently in private practice. I have experienced trauma in my life that has shaped the foundation of this ministry of help and the direction of my life. I am a scientist of the soul and passionate about your reservoir of truth. I am a servant called to the ministry of help. I am an experienced therapist dedicated to helping you overcome your anxiety, depression, and anger and looking at your traumatic events through new eyes. In other words, I help you develop and create new glasses. A portion of Jeremiah 8:22 says, "Is there no balm in Gilead? Is there no physician there? Why then is there no healing for the wound of my people...". I am not a physician but I consider myself a scientist of the soul. Most often on our journey home, we have experienced moral, soul, financial, spiritual, physical, biological, psychological, emotional and mental injuries to name a few. But, how do we navigate to find Shalom, aka "peace" to live the life we were created for? We often feel trapped in life's puzzle. So, take a moment and let's talk!

I am here to help you take off the mantle of other people and wear your cloak, then, you can be free to be you. A scientist with a niche for trauma, depression, mood and anxiety. I am here to walk with you, talk with you and listen to you.  I am EMDR trained.  I see EMDR as the Holy Spirit in action, cleaning and emptying the temple of all unnecessary clogs and/or blockages. In other words, the roof on a house needs a roofer to clean out the drainage allowing the water to flow freely

You are not defined by the words of others, but you are defined by your Creator. You are a Designer original. There is no one like you in all the earth. Welcome Home!
