I believe healing begins with feeling heard, understood, and supported without judgment. As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), I have over a decade of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families across outpatient, community mental health, crisis intervention, emergency departments, and behavioral health settings.
Throughout my career, I have helped individuals navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, relationship challenges, ADHD, mood disorders, and crisis situations. My background also includes leadership roles within behavioral health, allowing me to advocate for clients while providing compassionate, evidence-based care.
My goal is to create a safe, supportive environment where clients feel empowered to build resilience, gain insight, and create meaningful, lasting change.
Hello! I have a Masters of Education in Counseling and Human Development and have been a Licensed Professional Counselor since 2002, with Supervisory status (2020). I am also a Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist (CTRS) and have been since 1993. I am dedicated to fostering peace, respect, and healing within individuals and families. I am nurturing, patient and non-judgmental to help create a supportive environment where challenges can be addressed. I am a vocal advocate for children, teenagers, and adults. I have worked in psychiatric hospitals, RTC's, with TYC, private practice (all ages for individuals and families) and MHMR (focus on crisis counseling for children and teenagers). Trauma, depression, anxiety, crisis, and grief are some of my speciality areas.
I’m Fatoumata Diallo, PMHNP‐BC, a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner providing care to individuals ages 10 through older adulthood across Texas. My work is rooted in empathy, cultural humility, and a deep respect for each person’s lived experience.
I specialize in anxiety, depression, PTSD, ADHD, OCD, and mood disorders, with a particular passion for supporting clients through life transitions, trauma recovery, and emotional overwhelm. I believe mental health care should feel collaborative, transparent, and empowering.
My approach blends medication management, supportive therapy, and psychoeducation, always tailored to your unique goals and strengths. To enhance continuity and access, my practice also offers membership services that provide ongoing support between visits.
My mission is to help you feel more grounded, more hopeful, and more in control of your mental health journey.

If you are carrying something that still shows up when you least expect it, the memory that tightens your chest, the anxiety that will not switch off, or the sense that a past experience is still steering your present, you do not have to keep pushing through alone. I work with adults and young adults who want to feel less controlled by what happened and more like themselves again, including many who have tried talk therapy before and are curious whether EMDR could finally help them move through what has kept them stuck.
Brindo servicios de terapia en inglés y español. Availability from 9–11 p.m. sessions for life after bedtime routines. Relationships can deeply affect how we feel about ourselves and our lives. When there is conflict, distance, stress at home, or cultural pressures, it can feel exhausting and lonely.
I help individuals, couples, and families work through relationship challenges, family stress, parenting concerns, women’s issues, and identity or cultural experiences. As a bilingual therapist, I strive to create a space where you feel seen, supported, and understood.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Fort Worth, TX
Finding postpartum therapists in Fort Worth starts with looking for a therapist who has experience with perinatal mental health. Postpartum concerns can include postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. Some therapists list specific training in postpartum counseling, counseling for postpartum depression, or perinatal mental health. You can also look for the PMH-C credential, which signals specialized training in perinatal mental health.
Fort Worth has many therapy options, and the number of choices can make it harder to narrow your search. For new parents, practical details matter as much as specialty. Consider appointment availability, virtual session options, and whether a therapist offers a free phone consultation before booking. Virtual care can be especially useful when schedules change, infant care needs shift, or getting to an office is less practical. Reading therapist bios can help you see how they describe their work with postpartum concerns, communication style, and session structure.
Therapy in Fort Worth can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make postpartum counseling more accessible. Headway helps you find therapists who are accepting new patients, review their profiles, verify your insurance, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. From there, you can compare postpartum therapists in Fort Worth and book directly when you’re ready.
