Hi, I’m Mariam Opafunso, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I earned my Master of Science in Nursing from Ohio University and have experience working in both inpatient and outpatient behavioral health settings. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and other mood-related concerns, as well as eating-related conditions in adolescents and adults.

Outside of my professional role, I value balance and growth, and I show up fully for the people I serve. I understand that seeking help can feel overwhelming, and I create a space where you feel comfortable, respected, and truly heard.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Spring, TX


Hi, I’m Elizabeth. I work with women and teen girls ages 15+ experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship stress, burnout, menopause, and major life transitions.

My approach is warm, practical, and collaborative.

I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-focused and strength-based approaches, and Christian counseling when desired. I also incorporate other evidence-based strategies to help you recognize patterns, manage difficult emotions, build healthier boundaries, and feel more confident in your daily life.

I especially enjoy working with women who spend so much time caring for others that they begin to feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or disconnected from themselves.

Therapy is available in English and Spanish. Together, we will focus on helping you feel more grounded, supported, and better equipped to move forward.

Sarah Watson

Therapist

Virtual • Texas


I have been practicing since 2008 and bring over 17 years of experience helping people move through life’s difficult seasons with more clarity, strength, and self-trust. I grew up in Canada and later moved to Texas, where I completed my master’s in Counseling. Over the years, I have worked with clients navigating anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, grief, relationship issues, and life transitions. Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, stuck in painful patterns, or unsure how to move forward. My goal is to offer a space where you feel safe, understood, and supported as we begin making sense of what is weighing on you and what healing could look like.
