Therapists in Texas

Hi! I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and Mental Performance Counselor based in Texas. I received an M.S. in Sports and Performance Psychology from California Baptist University and an M.A. in Counseling, concentrating on Marriage and Family Therapy from Sam Houston State University.

Together, we will work to understand and address any challenges you may be facing and help you to achieve your goals. I look forward to getting to know you and supporting your progress.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Texas with over 10 years of Social Work experience.

As your therapist, I will tailor our dialog and treatment plant to meet your unique and specific needs with your input.

As a faith-based holistic therapist in Texas, I’m here to help you navigate life’s ups and downs, tackle internal challenges, and heal from past experiences. I believe in looking at the whole person—mind, body, and spirit—to help you find your strengths, build resilience, and grow in a way that feels right for you. Your beliefs are your own, and I totally respect that; but if you’re open to it, I’m happy to bring in a faith-based perspective to guide you through life’s challenges. Whether you’re dealing with relationship issues, anxiety, trauma recovery, or aiming for personal growth, I’m here to support you as we work together to create meaningful change and help you move forward in life.

My journey as a professional counselor for the past two decades has been deeply rewarding. Witnessing the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of therapy has fueled my commitment to this work. Over the years, my expertise in trauma, mood disorders, and life transitions has grown through continuous learning and, most importantly, through the privilege of walking alongside countless individuals on their paths to healing and growth. My foundation in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy, coupled with a warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental approach, has shaped my practice and my unwavering belief in the potential for positive change within each person I have the honor to support.

In my practice, I specialize in working with individuals and couples ages 13 and up who are grappling with anxiety, depression, and various other mental health challenges. Drawing from evidence-based practices and my integrative approach, I strive to create a safe and supportive space where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgment.

Whether utilizing cognitive-behavioral techniques to address specific symptoms or delving into psychodynamic exploration to uncover underlying patterns, my aim is to empower clients to navigate life's challenges and cultivate resilience. Beyond my work as a therapist, I find joy in exploring the world through travel and indulging in my guilty pleasure of binge-watching HGTV shows. These pursuits recharge my spirit and inspire creativity, allowing me to bring fresh perspectives and energy to my practice. Overall, my mission is to guide individuals and couples on their journey toward healing, growth, and fulfillment, both within themselves and in their relationships. I'm deeply committed to helping my clients build resilience, strengthen connections, and embrace the fullness of life's possibilities.

I’ve been there too. I work with people going through those transition periods when they are on the brink of either breakdown or breakthrough, and help them discover new and exciting possibilities as they reinvent themselves through adversity.

Are you searching for someone to listen to you? For many years, I have heard over and over, “Thank you, I have just been wanting someone to listen to me”. I have always felt led to sit and listen when a client went from answering assessment questions to opening up and spilling their heart. I have been a licensed social worker for over 30 years working with clients in healthcare settings and case management. I have now been a licensed professional counselor for the last five years. My love for helping people learn how to help themselves and believe they can "retrain their brain" to achieve what they want inspired me to seek my own career goal of returning to graduate school to become a licensed professional counselor. With my clients over the years, I have gained experience in helping them work through stress, anxiety, depression, family dynamics, job loss, marital problems, physical limitations and/or disabilities, as well as long term life-altering situations. These situations brought me to work with adults of all ages due to the circumstances affecting relationships with family and friends.

Hello! My name is Jonathan Piña, and I am a licensed clinical social worker in the state of Texas. I am newly licensed but have experience working with patients experiencing anxiety, depression, schizophrenia, and other debilitating mental illnesses.

I am a second career social worker, who graduated with my MSW in 2014 and my Ph.D. in 2019, both from the University of Houston’s Graduate College of Social Work. I am originally from New Orleans, Louisiana, but have lived in the Houston area for 30+ years. I decided to become a social worker because of my personal experiences raising a child with behavioral health issues and experiencing profound loss following the sudden death of my husband. My goals were to help others the way my own family had been helped, but I also hoped to improve the experiences of others with similar lived experiences but less positive outcomes. I have worked in a variety of settings, including West Oaks Hospital (a specialty psychiatric hospital) and its affiliated outpatient settings, where I provided individual, group, and family therapy to adults and adolescents experiencing significant mental health crises. I have also worked in home hospice care, assisting individuals and families with both pre-bereavement and post-bereavement support, and where I facilitated online support groups for caregivers and for individuals experiencing grief and bereavement. In addition to my private practice, I am an adjunct professor at the University of Houston’s Graduate College of Social Work, and I frequently consult with immigration lawyers about the ways in which mental health issues may impact the path to asylum or citizenship. I practice with a trauma-informed style and am always conscious of the ways in which trauma impacts the lives and experiences of individuals in all walks of life. I have experience working with people who live with ADHD, anxiety, autism, depression, and mood disorders generally. My goal is always to support my clients in achieving their own goals for a happier and healthier life.

Hello, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC-S) and I am based in Houston, Texas. I obtained a psychology degree from Grambling State University and received my counseling degree from Prairie View A&M University. I have been practicing for 12 years helping individuals and families heal and develop healthy coping tools to deal with burnout from overwhelming emotions and life stressors.

As a therapist, I am deeply committed to creating a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I believe in a client-centered, collaborative approach, where the therapeutic relationship is a partnership. I meet clients as equals, respecting them as the experts in their own lives, and providing unconditional positive regard. I recognize that clients’ struggles are often shaped by social, cultural, and political forces like gender, race, and class. I take an intersectional approach, understanding how various aspects of identity intersect to create unique experiences. I focus on empowerment—helping clients reclaim their voice, challenge societal norms, and recognize their inner strength. My approach is eclectic and tailored to each client’s needs. I integrate methods like Somatic Experiencing, EMDR, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to support healing, whether through trauma processing, emotional regulation, or shifting unhelpful thought patterns. I’m also trauma-informed, providing a safe space for clients to explore past experiences at their own pace. I value cultural humility and am committed to understanding the impact of cultural background on mental health. I strive to be inclusive, respecting each person’s unique worldview and lived experience. I see therapy as a strength-based process rather than a path to fixing someone. Clients are not broken but resilient individuals with the capacity to grow and heal. My goal is to support clients in reconnecting with their agency and personal power, empowering them to make choices that align with their true selves. Ultimately, I am an empathetic, compassionate therapist dedicated to the growth, healing, and empowerment of my clients, always working from a place of respect, authenticity, and social justice.

Hi, I’m Dr. Ebony B. I’m a licensed therapist, healing guide, and space-holder for people who are tired of being the strong one. If you’ve been carrying the weight of emotional pain, burnout, or the pressure to keep showing up for everyone else, this is your space to put it all down and just be. I work with Black women, caregivers, and high-achieving professionals who often feel anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, or like they’ve lost themselves somewhere along the way. Many of my clients seem to have it all together on the outside but feel exhausted inside. You don’t have to keep holding it in or pretending to be okay. You deserve a space to be real, to rest, and to heal. In our work together, we’ll move at your pace. I help clients understand what they’re feeling, where those emotions come from, and how to care for themselves with more compassion and clarity. We talk through patterns, explore your past, build boundaries, and learn new ways to cope that actually feel good to you. You’ll feel supported, not judged. My style is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative. We’ll laugh sometimes, reflect often, and create room for honesty, softness, and growth. I honor your lived experience and believe in healing that respects your identity, your story, and your values. You don’t have to do this alone. If you’re ready to feel more like yourself again, I would be honored to walk with you.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I bring a client-focused, compassionate approach to therapy. My role is to support individuals as they navigate personal and relational challenges, empowering them to become the best version of themselves. With years of experience in both private practice and larger healthcare settings, I specialize in working with clients facing a wide range of issues, from stress and anxiety to complex family dynamics.

As a licensed marriage and family therapist I have particular experience and training in understanding individuals in the context of their relationships, families, and social identities. Sometimes our distress isn't just about what we're doing or not doing. Oftentimes, it's about how we move through the world in our social identities and how the world perceives and interacts with us so I want you to be able to talk about that in therapy. I can relate and find it meaningful to work with individuals suffering from anxiety. Anxiety can be crippling and paralyzing, causing us to overthink which can get in the way of so many things in life from accomplishing goals, trying new things, socializing, sleeping or even smaller things that add up until you're overwhelmed with them, like answering the phone or checking your mail. If you're feeling misunderstood, like you can't be yourself, anxious, worried, or trapped in repeating patterns that are causing you pain, I will join you where you are and we can work together to help you create a secure sense of self, and restore and improve relationships.

Everyone in life has a unique story. Sometimes, we need assistance guiding us through those stories. I enjoy helping children, and young adults learn coping skills to manage struggles in life.

I began my career as a life skills teacher, special education co-teacher, and finally a special education counselor. The focus of my career has been working with students with behavioral issues, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. I have also assisted school staff with their struggles.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 25 years of professional experience in the field of mental health. Drawing from a rich combination of therapeutic modalities, including Reality Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Strength-Based approaches, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), My goal is to help clients navigate life’s challenges by fostering resilience, empowerment, and positive change. By integrating lived experiences with clinical expertise, I am known for creating a compassionate, non-judgmental space where individuals can explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Specializing in working with a diverse range of clients, I tailor interventions to meet each person’s unique needs, guiding them toward practical solutions and personal growth. I am deeply committed to helping individuals build on their strengths, gain insight into their struggles, and develop the skills necessary to achieve long-lasting, meaningful change in their lives.

Hi! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas. I received my master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling from Northwestern University. I have been practicing in the field for 5 years. I work with adult individuals who struggle with various mental health issues and couples who are experiencing challenges with communication and intimacy issues in their relationships. I also work with couples who have made the decision to separate and want a smooth transition with the process.

I witness people in their present predicaments and tell them what I see and feel. Acknowledgement of pain, a counterintuitive process, is the secret sauce of ordering our lives into functional, fun, and life-affirming behaviors. The process of emotional healing takes time, dedication, and practice. Willingness to feel what has been unfelt and to voice what has been unsaid will help you see positive changes in your life.

Do you ever ask yourself "why am I like this?" If so, lets work together. I'm a seasoned therapist that helps clients understand the parts of themselves that don't always make sense.

Together we can learn more about the inner workings of your brain and work to change any behaviors that might not be favorable. Whether you are dealing with overwhelming emotions, situational stressors, or cyclical anxiety and depression we can create a plan that works for you. I also specialize in treating trauma and am trained in EMDR. I pride myself in being a safe, diverse, and knowledgeable guide for your healing journey. If you're ready to start taking control of your mental health with a professional that's here for you then let's connect.

My name is Elizabeth and I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in the states of Texas and Arizona. I am also a certified school counselor and transitioned to full-time mental health counseling after working as a high school counselor. I have been working as a counselor for 10 years, primarily in the school setting. I helped my students with issues such as family problems, academic struggles, relationship issues, trauma/abuse, ADHD, autism, LGBT-issues, depression, anxiety, perfectionism, grief, and suicidal ideation. Before working as a counselor, I was an elementary teacher for 6 years. I have experience working with adults and adolescents. I love seeing my clients understand themselves better and improve their mental health. I feel comfortable counseling people from a variety of backgrounds, especially those whose backgrounds are different than my own. My entire professional career has been spent with a primarily Hispanic population, but I am comfortable with other cultures, as well. I am a big fan of CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and Solutions-focused therapy, but I try to cater my counseling to each client, so I often incorporate different counseling philosophies as needed. I believe my clients are the experts on their own lives and I want to work with them to improve their contentment, coping skills, and mental health. I believe it is important and beneficial to have a nonjudgmental, unbiased person to talk to. This is one of the best parts of counseling. I often use humor to lighten the mood when counseling. I find this helps grow my relationships with my clients. Congratulations on making the first step towards getting help. I would love to work with you.

I like to empower my clients and focus on their strengths to help them overcome challenges and past trauma.

My name is Josalynn Cartagena and I am an LPC. I graduated from CA-CREP accredited Sam Houston State University in 2018 in school counseling. After graduating, I began working in public education as a middle and high school counselor. I also worked for a tutoring company doing behavioral coaching for youth and for another private practice seeing clients of all ages. In 2023, I started my own bilingual virtual private practice, Sol Shines On, PLLC to help people find hope and feel valued, heard and understood to discover a better outcome for their life and future. I use the modalities of CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), Person Centered Theory and EMDR to process negative memories. I am constantly striving to grow myself with continued education, certifications and specialties to expand my knowledge as a counselor in ways I can continue to help you grow.
