Hello! My name is Silvana Padmanabhan. I am Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Texas with over 19 years of experience working as a psychotherapist. I graduated with my MSSW degree from the University of Texas at Austin. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, communication difficulties, family of origin issues, and life transitions. I have worked with the civilian and veteran population.

I work well with children, adolescents and adults, parents, couples and families. I work with helping people improve their self concept, eliminating negative thoughts that disturb our peace of mind. I help people through transitions in their life, trauma, whether that be changes in school/work, relationships, grief and loss, moves, retirement, recreating themselves etc. I help individuals, couples and families communicate in a way that betters their interpersonal relationships. I work with past grief and traumas that get in the way of healthy life functioning. I help people move toward a balanced and happier overall way of life.

I offer an interpersonal style of therapy and I use many modalities and much experience to help individuals, couples and families work through difficulties they may be facing or helping work toward living a more aware, peaceful life.

Challenges shouldn’t just be endured—they should be the catalyst for your breakthrough. My goal is to help you transform life's toughest hurdles into a foundation for lasting resilience and self-discovery, giving you the tools to reclaim your strength and lead a more intentional life.

I believe effective mental health care begins with trust, collaboration, and respect. My approach is empowering, compassionate, open-minded, and culturally sensitive. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental environment where adolescents and adults feel heard, respected, and actively involved in their care. I combine a holistic, whole-person perspective with evidence-based psychiatric assessment, diagnosis, medication management, and supportive psychotherapy to create personalized treatment plans that promote lasting wellness.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with more than 20 years of nursing experience in hospitals, outpatient clinics, private practices, community health centers, and behavioral health settings. I treat a wide range of conditions, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, trauma-related disorders, psychotic disorders, and other complex mental health concerns.

My career also includes international humanitarian work with the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), where I cared for individuals affected by conflict and crisis. This experience strengthened my commitment to providing compassionate, culturally responsive, and patient-centered care for people from diverse backgrounds.

In addition to my clinical practice, I am the author of several mental health publications that reflect my dedication to education, evidence-based practice, and improving patient outcomes. I currently provide comprehensive psychiatric care through Oasis Behavioral Health and Elevated Behavioral and Transitional Health.

Hi...My name is Beverly White LMFT, I will accompany you on this incredible journey.

I am a seasoned mental health therapist with over a decade of experience. With a genuine passion for helping individuals navigate life's challenges, I specialize in anxiety and depression management, stress reduction, relationship challenges, LGBTQ unique experiences, and self-empowerment.

My name is Malinda, and I am a licensed professional counselor supervisor.

I worked with probationers for three years providing counseling services at a private practice and taught Marijuana Intervention, Life Skills, and the DWI Safety Education Course. I have worked at two hospitals, one as a Mental Health Technician while in graduate school and then as a Treatment Manager at another hospital once completing that degree. From there I have continued to work in private practice. I work with individuals (adults and children from ages 12 and up), couples, and families.

I addition, I work with military and those in law enforcement. I specialize in addiction, trauma, personality and mood disorders, eating disorders, LGBTQ+, criminal behavior, self-harm, obsessive-compulsive disorder, anger management, Autism, ADHD, single parenting, chronic illness, and rare diseases. I provide Christian counseling upon request.

I’ve primarily worked with older adults and people navigating mental health concerns such as depression, anxiety, and grief, as well as other life challenges. I enjoy getting to know each person and adapting therapy to what feels most helpful for them. I also like bringing humor into sessions when it feels right, helping create a comfortable space where you can be yourself. I welcome LGBTQ+ clients and strive to offer an affirming, positive space.

I'm Lina, and I'm passionate about empowering individuals on their journey to healing and growth.
