I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 13 years of experience working with teens (13+), adults, active military, and veterans.
I specialize in trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and autism. I also work with LGBTQ+ clients. I use CBT, DBT, ACT, and solution-focused therapy, but I don't take a one-size-fits-all approach. I focus on getting to the root of what's going on and figuring out what actually works for you.
You don't have to have it all figured out to start. You just have to show up. I'll do the work with you, no judgment, no pretense.
If you're ready, I'm here.
Clients should know that I believe everyone has strengths and the ability to create positive change. My approach is supportive, respectful, and focused on what’s working rather than what’s wrong. I see therapy as a collaborative process where we set clear goals, highlight your progress, and build practical solutions that fit your life. You can expect a safe, nonjudgmental space where your voice matters and where we work together to move toward hope, healing, and growth.
Outside of my work as a therapist, I enjoy spending time outdoors, riding my horses, and being with my family. These activities help me stay grounded and connected to what matters most in life. I value balance, authenticity, and meaningful relationships, and I bring those same values into my work with clients. I strive to create a welcoming, supportive environment where clients feel comfortable being themselves and working toward their goals.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma, and life’s harder moments with over a decade of experience.
Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is let someone walk beside you. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, ADHD, self-esteem concerns, or simply feeling stuck, you don't have to face it alone. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming, and judgment-free space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to grow.
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Houston.

"I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become." Welcome, my name is Peju and I a a licensed professional counselor in Texas. With over 10 years of practice, I firmly believe that our past and current situations do not define who we are. Instead, it is our ability to rise and push through our struggles that allows us to grow into the person we are destined to become.
I'm a licensed clinical social worker based in Maplewood, NJ and the founder of canyons therapy. I can see clients who live in New Jersey, Texas, Connecticut, and Massachusetts. I am a recovering perfectionist, anxious mom, and lover of a slow-paced life. In session, you will find me casually dressed, warm beverage in-hand, and ready to hold space for your most imperfect self. Outside of session, I’m wrangling my young kids and doing my best to embrace our chaos. I enjoy being in nature, watching the latest documentary, and curating mood-setting playlists.
Reaching out for therapy is a courageous first step. If you're looking for a therapist who will meet you with compassion, curiosity, and a whole-person approach to healing, I'd be honored to support you on your journey. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and five years of clinical experience. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood. Whether you're facing a major life transition, struggling with anxiety, navigating relationship challenges, or simply feeling stuck, my goal is to create a space where you can safely explore what's happening beneath the surface and move toward lasting change.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Austin
Finding postpartum therapists in Austin starts with looking for care that matches your specific needs after pregnancy or birth. Postpartum concerns can include postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. Some people also look for a prenatal depression therapist or a counselor for pregnancy before birth. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience in perinatal mental health, postpartum depression counseling, or the PMH-C credential, which signals specialized training in perinatal mental health.
Austin has many therapists across neighborhoods and nearby areas, which can make it harder to narrow your options. For new parents, practical details often matter as much as specialty fit. Consider appointment availability, scheduling flexibility, and whether virtual sessions fit better with infant care, physical recovery, or an unpredictable schedule. Reading therapist bios can help you see how each person describes their approach, communication style, and experience with postpartum depression therapy, postpartum anxiety, and care for new moms.
Therapy in Austin can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before booking. Headway makes it easier to find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, offer upfront cost estimates, and are accepting new patients. You can compare therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
