Hi, I’m Nathan, and I’m glad you’re here. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC-S) in Texas with 25 years of experience in Christian counseling. I earned my M.A. from Amberton University and my B.A. in Pastoral Counseling from Criswell College. As a multicultural therapist, I enjoy helping people from all backgrounds work through life’s challenges, strengthen relationships, and move toward meaningful change.
Hi there! I work with adolescents and young adults who are navigating a variety of life challenges and mental health concerns. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, life transitions, women's issues, substance use, PTSD, relationship difficulties, or Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), ect., my goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to create meaningful change.
My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your individual needs. I believe therapy should be a place where you can explore difficult emotions, gain insight into patterns that may no longer serve you, and develop practical skills to help you move toward the life you want.
As a Nigerian American therapist, I also recognize the impact that culture, identity, and family dynamics can have on mental health. I enjoy helping clients navigate the unique challenges that can arise from balancing multiple identities while honoring their values, experiences, and personal goals. I love animals, yoga, traveling, live music, and farmer's markets!
I believe healing happens in a space where you feel safe, respected, and understood. My approach is trauma‐informed, culturally responsive, and grounded in compassion. I work collaboratively, at your pace, and without judgment. You can expect me to be honest, supportive, and consistent as we explore patterns, build skills, and work toward the life you want. My goal is to help you feel empowered, capable, and more connected to yourself and others. I believe you are the expert on your own life, and my role is to help you uncover your strengths, challenge unhelpful patterns, and create meaningful change. I meet you where you are and support you in moving forward at a pace that feels right for you.
At Kelly Counseling and Consulting my mission is to offer compassionate counseling to help individuals confidently overcome life's challenges. I ensure a safe space for growth, offering care that fosters wellness and meaningful change, aiming for every client to feel valued and hopeful.
My goal is to create a safe space where the superman cape, the mask, the facade that you've had to show the world can come down. That cape is really heavy.
I want to extend a special invitation to those in the helping professions: this is a safe place to discuss those crazy stories, and know you'll never feel judged or looked down on. As a former social worker, I can tell you I've seen my own share of the best and worst humanity has to offer. My dark sense of humor is a load-bearing structure.
I became a therapist because I lived the question my clients carry: Who am I underneath everything I've been told to be?
I know firsthand how deeply childhood experiences, adult trauma, and the messages we absorb from parents, partners, and systems can shape — and distort — how we see ourselves. Many of my clients arrive believing something is fundamentally broken in them. My job is to help you discover that's never been true.
What sets my work apart is that I treat the whole picture. I don't just address symptoms — I explore how your history, your nervous system, your neurobiology, and even your epigenetics created the patterns keeping you stuck. That's how change becomes permanent, not just temporary relief.
I also bring something most therapists can't offer: a commitment to never judge. Whether you're navigating a life others don't understand, a diagnosis that's felt like a label rather than a doorway, or relationships that don't fit a conventional mold — you are safe here.
And I believe this with everything I have: it is never too late to become who you were meant to be.
