As a Christian, who has experienced trauma that resulted in high anxiety and deep depression, I can relate to your suffering with empathy. As a Christian, who has recovered from trauma, depression, and anxiety, I can relate to your suffering with hope. As a Christian counselor, I can provide you the solutions for resolving your issues and achieving your goals. I have over 20 years of experience providing people with the skills and tools to relieve suffering and discover solutions to their life issues. I integrate Polyvagal Informed Therapy and EMDR in addressing the needs of your mind and body. I use Biblical principles and prayer for spiritual attunement, discernment, and wisdom. Together, we can significantly reduce your anxiety and depression by identifying and resolving negative experiences from your past. Disturbing life events can create a block that prevents you from processing and healing. When those events are fully processed, the associated emotions dissipate, the event is resolved, and healing occurs naturally. You will find relief early on by learning how to cope through self regulation techniques. I look forward to walking with you on your healing and spiritual journey. Reach out today.

I’m a trauma-informed therapist who helps adults heal from anxiety, trauma, burnout, and painful relationship patterns using EMDR therapy and a mind-body approach. Many of my clients come to me feeling stuck in cycles of self-doubt, overwhelm, or disconnection, appearing “fine” on the outside while feeling anything but on the inside. My goal is to create a safe, grounding space where you can explore what’s beneath the surface, release what’s been weighing you down, and reconnect with the most authentic version of yourself. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is at the heart of my work. It’s an evidence-based therapy that helps the brain reprocess distressing memories so they no longer carry the same emotional intensity. Through gentle bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements or tapping), the mind can integrate painful experiences in a more adaptive way. Clients often describe EMDR as life-changing- it allows healing to occur on a deeper, neurological level, often when talk therapy alone hasn’t been enough. My style is collaborative, intuitive, and compassionate. I’ll meet you exactly where you are, while gently challenging patterns that no longer serve you. Together, we’ll help you feel safe in your body, clear in your mind, and at peace within yourself.

Since becoming a counselor, I have worked in a variety of community counseling settings. I have worked with clients from ages 3 through 80 and with individuals, couples, and families. With that breadth of experience, very little shocks or surprises me and I have gotten a pretty good sense of where the types of counseling that play to my strengths as a counselor overlap with the types of counseling that are helpful for my clients. This sense (along with learning about lots and lots of research into what helps people find and maintain mental health) has led to the following guiding principles that shape all the counseling I do: 1) The client is always in charge. I know a lot of things but you will always be the one who decides what you want to get out of counseling, how we work towards that goal, whether or not what we’re doing seems to be working, and when we’re done. 2) Change and health happen through relationships. No matter what you come in for, there are always relational implications of change and relational factors that contribute to whatever it is that you came to counseling to change. 3) Counseling should be efficient. Counseling has significant costs in time and money. I think the benefits far outweigh the costs but if I can give you the benefits while helping you save on the costs then I want to do that.

My name is LaToya and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Houston, TX . I work with adults who are ready to do the deep, honest work of healing, people who have spent years feeling like they were not enough, shrinking themselves to keep the peace, and carrying wounds from childhood that were never theirs to carry in the first place. I also work with parents who are ready to break generational patterns. Not because they were bad parents, but because they are brave enough to become better than their own. My approach is warm, direct, and deeply collaborative. I will meet you with compassion and zero judgment, and I will also gently challenge you when the work calls for it. I believe healing is not something I do to you, but it is something we build together, at a pace that honors both your courage and your complexity. I am trained in ACT, CBT, CPT, DBT, EMDR, Nurturing Parenting, and Prepare/Enrich. Each allows me to tailor my approach to the unique person sitting in front of me. What drives me to this work is both personal and professional. I understand, from the inside out, what it means to carry more than you should and to wonder if things can ever really change. They can. I have seen it and I am honored every time someone trusts me to be part of their journey. If you are tired of surviving and ready to start living as your most worthy self, I would be honored to walk that path with you.

Hi, I’m Carolyn, a therapist passionate about supporting neurodivergent children, teens, and adults as they navigate anxiety, trauma, emotional overwhelm, life transitions, and relationship challenges. My approach is warm, collaborative, and strengths-based, blending evidence-based therapies with nervous system-informed care to help clients feel safe, understood, and empowered. I strive to create a supportive space where clients can build coping skills, process difficult experiences, and reconnect with their authentic selves at their own pace. I became a therapist because I deeply believe people deserve safe, compassionate spaces where they can be fully themselves — messy, hopeful, hurting, and growing — without fear of judgment. Watching clients rediscover their inner light, reclaim their strengths, and gradually step into their power is the most meaningful and humbling part of my work.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Texas rather than a city like Dallas?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in Texas. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Texas from Houston to Austin! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Texas.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What happens during the first therapy session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
