I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the state of Texas, clinically licensed since 2021. I have extensive experience working with Veterans, survivors of intimate partner violence (IPV), and individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, and life stressors or major transitions. My approach to therapy is collaborative, trauma-informed, and strengths-based. I believe clients are the experts of their own lives, and my role is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can explore challenges, build coping skills, and move toward meaningful change. Whether you’re adjusting to life after military service, navigating relationship difficulties, or feeling overwhelmed by stress, we will work together to create practical tools that promote healing and resilience. As an African American clinician, I am deeply committed to culturally responsive and culturally sensitive care. I understand how identity, culture, systemic barriers, and lived experiences can impact mental health. I have extensive experience working with historically marginalized communities. I also provide culturally sensitive, LBGTQIA- affirming care and I strive to create an affirming space where all clients feel seen, heard, and understood. Seeking therapy takes courage. If you’re ready to begin your journey toward clarity, emotional wellness, and empowerment, I look forward to supporting you.

Miljana (Mina) Bajic, LCSW My main professional interest and passion is insight-based psychology and existential psychodynamic therapy. I studied and practiced clinical psychology in Belgrade, Serbia for 15 years where I also received intensive training in psychodynamic therapy and worked with individuals, families, and groups. Since moving to Houston 12 years ago, I completed my graduate degree at the University of Houston, where I practiced therapy mostly with people suffering from trauma, anxiety, and grief. I taught courses to graduate students at the University of Houston on Spirituality and Aging, Group therapy, Grief/Bereavement therapy and Research Methodology. My deep dedication to the understanding and acceptance of the most diverse human existential experiences and challenges has led me to explore a wide array of aspects and sources of knowledge both scientific (evidence-based), but also those stemming from the creative processes of making music, literature, film, and art. My basic belief is that ultimate healing and balance comes from the inward, often unpleasant, but deeply rewarding journey into ourselves that incorporates our habits and thoughts, but also our physical existence, emotional dynamic and spiritual needs and values. My goal as a therapist is to be a reliable, trusted companion in this journey of self-exploration and self-acceptance.

Welcome! I’m Toni Rivers, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and the owner of Mind Over Chatter LLC. I am passionate about helping individuals navigate life’s challenges, better understand their thoughts and emotions, and create meaningful and lasting change. I believe that everyone deserves a safe, supportive space where they can feel heard, understood, and accepted without judgment. Life can often feel overwhelming, and the thoughts we carry can sometimes make it difficult to find clarity, peace, and confidence. Through therapy, I work alongside my clients to help them explore their experiences, identify patterns that may no longer serve them, and develop practical tools to support their emotional well-being. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and personalized because I understand that there is no one-size-fits-all path to healing. Whether you are navigating stress, relationship challenges, difficult life transitions, overwhelming emotions, or simply seeking greater self-awareness and personal growth, my goal is to meet you where you are and support you on your journey. At Mind Over Chatter LLC, I am committed to helping clients quiet the mental “chatter,” strengthen their coping skills, and develop a greater sense of peace, confidence, and fulfillment. I am honored to walk alongside my clients as they work toward healing, growth, and becoming the best version of themselves. You don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone. Sometimes, taking the first step toward support can open the door to meaningful change.

My background covers a wide range of experience working with individuals and groups of all ages, diverse backgrounds and circumstances, and in various professional settings and roles. The professional settings I have experience in range from non-profits, child/family services, crisis intervention, child/youth shelters, psychiatric hospitals, schools, and private counseling. I have worked in many roles as well, including case management, social worker, counselor, teacher, supervisor, director and administrator. The most important thing to know about me is my belief that in all of my experience, the people involved who need help and support are much more capable of handling the issues in their life than they may feel like they are at the time they come to my office. I have worked with children, families, adolescents, and adults and this has always been true. Whatever circumstance or issue causes someone to seek help, my role is to assist that person in finding ways they can handle it and with better results for them and their life. I frequently remind clients that there is one thing that every low point in their life has in common: the low points change, they pass, and things are not always like that. Our job is to move that change in a direction that benefits you and will support you in a brighter future.

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.

Nobody comes to therapy because they need someone to tell them to “think positive.” They come because they’re exhausted. Tired of anxiety or trauma calling the shots. Tired of burnout, addiction, or chaotic relationship patterns running the show. Tired of just surviving on autopilot. If you're looking for someone to hand you generic platitudes or passively nod while you vent, I am not your therapist. I work with people who are ready to actually change things. Life is complicated enough; getting real help shouldn’t be. As a dual-licensed therapist (LPC & LCDC), I specialize in complex trauma, ADHD, anxiety, depression, substance abuse, and mood disorders. My approach is straightforward, down-to-earth, and entirely BS-free. We’ll uncover the "why" behind what’s keeping you stuck, but we heavily focus on the "what now" with practical tools you can actually use in real life. I offer direct feedback, honest accountability, and zero clinical fluff. We won't just talk in circles about your past; we’ll untangle the chaos and build concrete strategies so your progress doesn't stay trapped in our sessions. Therapy isn't a quick checkbox or a single-session magic wand. It takes commitment. If you are ready to be called out on the patterns keeping you stuck, roll up your sleeves, and build a life that actually feels like yours, you’ll feel right at home here.

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!
