You turn to drinking, overeating, the internet, or binge watch Netflix to escape the internal and external stressors. You have tried so many different things to change your life, but nothing seems to work. You believe you are not enough and are afraid to ask for help.
I am here to help you. I believe therapy can change people's lives because therapy changed my life 30 years ago. I started working in the field of therapy 20 years ago as a Social Worker in Substance Use. I continued my work as a LPC working in a treatment center for drugs and alcohol doing therapy on the people who had addictions and the people that love someone with an addiction. Over the last 15 years I have gained experience in all the issues and Diagnosis that come with this population. I help people overcome addictions, co-dependency, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and trauma. My specialty is addressing sexual, emotional and physical abuse that is past abuse or current abuse and the PTSD caused by abuse.
People need a safe environment that is conducive to healing. I will meet you where you are to help move you in a direction to change. My direct and honest approach, with acceptance and care provide a safe place for my clients to heal. I work with the client in a collaborative effort to change their lives.

Before transitioning into outpatient mental health practice, I worked as a medical social worker in the hospice setting for more than four years. During that time, I provided emotional support, counseling, and care coordination to patients and families navigating serious illness, grief, loss, and end-of-life concerns. This experience strengthened my understanding of the emotional challenges individuals and families face during difficult life transitions.
Today, I provide evidence-based psychotherapy to adolescents and adults of all ages.

Together, we will identify your strengths, explore areas for growth, and create meaningful goals that align with the life you want to live.

Greetings Beloved Clients!
I am Pam C. Lyons, a Certified Professional Coach and Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor for 15 years, and 20 plus years of life experience. I understand what it means to reinvent and rebuild my life several times as a Hurricane Katrina Survivor and as a businesswoman.
My practice serves as a safe place to the Texas community and a beacon of light. The slogan “Reinvent the World” was inspired by all the shared traumatic experiences going on in the world due to Covid 19, increase in mental and physical health problems, racism, toxic politics, lack of safety for our children, poverty, economic challenges, women not receiving equal pay, women rights being infringed upon, and survivors of natural disasters. We need a space to express our traumatic experiences safely, to be listened to and understood with empathy and compassion, and to receive coping tools to become the best version of ourselves so we can create a better world for our future generations.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and National Certified Counselor (NCC) with a Master of Education in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Houston–Victoria. My professional background includes extensive experience working with both the State of Texas and nonprofit organizations, supporting individuals who are seeking to improve their lives and overcome personal challenges.
I have had the privilege of working with clients throughout the lifespan—including children, adolescents, teens, and adults—addressing a broad spectrum of mental health concerns such as anxiety, trauma, depression, stress, and abuse.

Hi! I like to provide an integrative approach to therapy that is individualized to your needs. I enjoy working with individual adults. Therapy can be intimidating, but I will provide you with an empathetic yet direct approach that will focus on your goals or areas of your life that are no longer working for you.
We will learn a variety of coping skills to help you decrease anxiety, depression, and stress. We will use your strengths to set boundaries and identify goals you wish to achieve. Whatever you are experiencing, we will work through it together.
I believe healing starts with connection—
Connection to yourself, your story, and the people around you.
Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready for growth, you don’t have to navigate it alone.
✨ This is a space where you are seen, heard, and supported.
You don’t have to have it all figured out to start therapy.
Maybe you’re:
• Overthinking everything
• Feeling emotionally drained
• Struggling in your relationships
• Carrying things you haven’t said out loud
I know it can feel overwhelming to scroll through profile after profile, hoping to find someone who feels like the right fit. Therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all, and I don’t believe in trying to squeeze people into neat little boxes. Over nearly 25 years of working with children, teens, adults, and families, I’ve learned that no two stories are alike, and no two people need the same thing.
I believe therapy begins with relationship. I also believe you know your own story best, even if you’re still learning to understand it. That’s why I see my role as a guide who listens, asks good questions, and, when it’s helpful, helps you look at your story from a different perspective. Together, we’ll build on your strengths and work toward a life that better reflects what matters most to you.

Born and raised in the inner city by a single mother and a large extended family, I noticed the needs of those that were mentally or physically diagnosed were often not met.

You may be the person everyone depends on; the one who handles problems, pushes through challenges, and keeps everything moving. But what happens when you're the one feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, disconnected, or unsure of what comes next?
I'm Kumalo, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), Board Certified Diplomate in Clinical Social Work, and retired U.S. Army officer with more than 22 years of military service and behavioral health leadership. I help adults navigate anxiety, trauma, PTSD, stress, burnout, relationship challenges, and major life transitions.
My approach is compassionate, straightforward, and focused on helping you make meaningful progress. I believe therapy should be more than a place to talk about what's wrong. It should also be a space where you feel understood, gain new perspectives, develop practical tools, and rediscover your confidence and sense of direction.
Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and EMDR, I tailor treatment to your experiences, needs, and goals. Whether you're dealing with painful experiences from the past, pressure in the present, or uncertainty about the future, we'll work together to identify what's keeping you stuck and create a path forward.
My experience includes supporting military service members, veterans, professionals, and individuals who carry significant responsibilities while quietly managing their own struggles. You don't have to be in crisis to benefit from therapy, and you don't need to have all the answers to get started.
You've spent a lot of time showing up for others. It's okay to make yourself a priority, too.
If you're ready to feel more grounded, strengthen your relationships, and move forward with greater clarity and confidence, I'd welcome the opportunity to work with you.
Many of the individuals and couples I work with are at a crossroads—frustrated, sometimes burnt out, and seeking practical, workable strategies for change. Therapy offers a dedicated, supportive space to identify obstacles and map a path toward meaningful personal growth.
With over 15 years of experience across healthcare, restorative justice, and outpatient settings, I provide telehealth therapy at Grow for adults and couples. My practice focuses on:
*Chronic Pain & Complex Medical Issues
*Anxiety & Phobias
*Fertility & Family Building Support
*LGBTQ+ & Gender-Affirming Care
*Eating Disorder/Substance Use Step-Down Maintenance: Supporting ongoing recovery from substance use or eating disorders following higher levels of care.
*Couples Therapy: Improving communication and relational dynamics (clinical outpatient focus only).
Practice Boundaries & Administrative Policies
To maintain a clear focus on clinical care, please review the following scope boundaries:
*Legal & Forensic Services: I do not provide forensic evaluations, court-ordered treatment, litigation support, or expert witness testimony for legal proceedings, divorce, or custody disputes.
*Disability & Administrative Paperwork: I do not perform disability evaluations or complete short/long-term disability claims; I do not write Emotional Support Animal (ESA) letters.
*Telehealth & Medical Requirements: Virtual therapy for chronic pain, ARFID, or medical distress serves strictly as a complementary psychological service. Because virtual care lacks physical monitoring:
A. Clients with ARFID or eating disorders must maintain ongoing care with an in-person physician for routine medical safety.
B. Clients seeking pain reprocessing or somatic therapy must have their pain evaluated by a physician.
******If medical or psychiatric needs exceed virtual outpatient scope, I will assist with referrals to local in-person providers**************

For me, being a counselor is so much more than a job—it's a calling of the highest order. I count it a true privilege to walk with the hurting through the dark and heavy places. Whether you’re navigating daily stress, dealing with workplace burnout, processing relationship or family struggles, or facing deep personal crises, I want you to know one thing: you don't have to carry it all by yourself.
I don't believe in 'fixing' people because I don't see you as broken. Instead, we’ll work together to look at the whole picture, celebrate your resilience, and build skills that bring both immediate relief and long-term healing. We’ll uncover your natural strengths, untangle the things holding you back, and help you feel grounded, confident, and genuinely hopeful as the best version of yourself. You don't have to have all the answers right now—we’ll figure them out together.

I am a therapist who shows up with both professional expertise and lived experience. As a mom and wife, I understand firsthand how demanding, beautiful, overwhelming, and transformative life can be. I know what it feels like to juggle responsibilities, care for others, and still try to make space for yourself. That lived understanding shapes the way I support my clients. I don’t just teach coping skills — I honor the real‑life pressures that make those skills hard to practice. I meet people where they are, with compassion, clarity, and a belief that small, intentional shifts can create meaningful change.
Mindfulness is a core part of how I move through my own life, and it naturally influences my work. I believe mindfulness isn’t about perfection or long meditation sessions — it’s about learning to pause, breathe, and reconnect with yourself in the middle of everyday moments. Whether it’s a busy morning, a stressful conversation, or a moment of self‑doubt, mindfulness helps us slow down enough to respond rather than react. It’s a powerful tool for grounding, emotional regulation, and building resilience, and I weave it into therapy in simple, practical ways that fit real life.
I work with teenagers navigating identity, self‑esteem, and life transitions; adults healing from trauma and unresolved emotional wounds; and individuals who feel overwhelmed by pressure, anxiety, or depression and struggle to find space for self‑care. My intention is always empowerment and transformation. I help clients understand their stories, break old patterns, strengthen their inner resources, and build lives that feel more grounded, meaningful, and aligned with who they truly are. I walk alongside them with warmth, curiosity, and a steady belief in their capacity to grow.
