Great to meet you

If you’re struggling with anxiety, overthinking, trauma, or relationship stress, you’re not alone. Many people face these challenges, and support is available to help you feel understood and less isolated.

I work with adults and adolescents who feel overwhelmed, mentally exhausted, or stuck in patterns they can’t seem to break. Many of my clients deal with high anxiety, racing thoughts, people-pleasing, and difficulty setting boundaries. Still, therapy can help you find hope and a way forward, even if it looks like you have everything together on the outside.

If you’re constantly overanalyzing, feeling on edge, or carrying the weight of past experiences, therapy can help you slow things down and regain control, empowering you to manage your thoughts and feelings more effectively.

Kathryn Omarkhail

Therapist

Virtual • Texas


I am a licensed mental health professional who works with individuals navigating stress, anxiety, life transitions, and the emotional impact of difficult experiences. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard, respected, and understood as they work through life’s challenges.

I believe therapy is most effective when it is a collaborative process. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, I take the time to understand each person’s unique experiences, strengths, and goals. Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain about what comes next. Together, we explore those challenges, build insight, and identify practical steps toward meaningful change.

I approach therapy with curiosity, compassion, and deep respect for each person’s story. My hope is that clients leave each session feeling more grounded, empowered, and confident in their ability to navigate life’s challenges and move forward with greater clarity.

Thank you for visiting Little Light Wellness!

I am a board certified nurse practitioner in both psychiatry and family medicine. I received my Bachelors of Nursing through UT Austin in 2008 and my Family Nurse Practitioner Masters degree through UT Austin in 2014. I have spent the last 11 years treating patients with complex autoimmune medical conditions in an outpatient infusion setting.

In 2024, after realizing a need for holistic psychiatric care for my patients, I received my Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner Certification through Johns Hopkins University.

I created Little Light Wellness to integrate my passions for authentic, down-to-earth care, education, and empowering collaborative approaches to psychiatric treatment. My goal is to create a safe space for you to feel truly seen, heard, and understood as we discover what treatment paths work best for you on your mental wellness journey.
