I truly love this work and believe in a collaborative approach — learning about my clients, learning with them, and learning from them. I value the time we spend together and am committed to creating a space where growth, healing, and self-discovery can flourish.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor with experience in hospital-based care, trauma work, and cross-cultural mental health, my practice is guided by the belief that healing starts with safety, clarity, and being truly understood.

I am dedicated to providing care that is thoughtful, grounded, and respectful of your entire experience.
Catherine Williams, PMHNP-BC. Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner (Texas telehealth). As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC), I am committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care that supports each individual’s journey toward stability, healing, and lasting wellness. I integrate both medical and therapeutic perspectives to address the whole person—mind, body, and spirit—with clinical expertise and genuine empathy.
I strive to create a safe, respectful, and judgment-free environment where clients feel heard, understood, and supported. Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, or major life transitions, I work collaboratively with you to develop an individualized treatment plan that empowers growth and promotes meaningful, sustained emotional well-being.
Welcome! I am Olga Pabon LCSW. I have more than 9 years of experience working with survivors of domestic and sexual violence.
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) providing evidence-based, insurance-accepted mental health care to children, adolescents, and adults. I offer both psychotherapy and medication management, allowing for a comprehensive and integrated approach to mental health treatment.
My clinical work includes the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of a wide range of mental health conditions, including anxiety disorders, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, trauma-related conditions, and other psychiatric concerns. I believe effective treatment is highly individualized, and I work collaboratively with clients to develop care plans that align with their goals, preferences, and lived experiences.

Hi, I'm Maribel Hernandez, a Licensed Professional Counselor with 11 years of experience working with adults. I specialize in helping individuals manage anxiety, depression, trauma, and PTSD in supportive, nonjudgmental environment. My approach is collaborative and focused on helping you build practical skills, gain insight, and create meaningful change. I believe therapy should be a safe space where you feel heard, understood and empowered.
Hi, I’m Cindy and I want you to know this: you don’t have to go through it alone. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or simply tired of carrying it all, therapy can be a space to exhale, reflect, and gently begin again.
I come to this work not only as a clinician but as a human being shaped by my own lived experience. I’m a proud Trinidadian-American who migrated to the U.S. at a young age, and I know what it’s like to navigate different worlds, expectations, and identities. That background helps me show up with empathy, cultural sensitivity, and deep respect for the unique path each client walks.
I’m currently pursuing my Doctorate in Social Work at Simmons University, and my clinical experience has focused on supporting adults through anxiety, trauma, life transitions, burnout, and issues related to identity and belonging. I have a special heart for clients who are used to being the strong ones, the caregivers, the first-gen trailblazers, the ones who hold space for everyone else.
In our work together, you can expect warmth, honesty, and collaboration. I use a relational and strengths-based approach, integrating tools from CBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care, but more importantly, I meet you where you are, honoring your pace and your story.
This is your space to feel seen, to feel safe, and to explore what healing could look like for you. If you’re ready to begin, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
I understand that attending therapy can feel intimidating and overwhelming, and frequently, the most difficult aspect of the entire process is simply taking the initial step to begin. Nevertheless, you are here now, and you are officially embarking on your personal path to heal and rebuild. I genuinely welcome the chance to connect with you and discover more about exactly how I can support you. My personal approach is consistently warm, deeply empathetic, and highly collaborative.
I’m passionate about helping people who often feel misunderstood or overlooked — especially those navigating substance use and mental health challenges. Over the years, I’ve seen how stigma can prevent people from seeking help, and I strive to create a safe, judgment-free space where clients can feel comfortable being themselves.
Hi, I’m Stephen. I work with people who feel overwhelmed, pulled in too many directions, or stuck in cycles of anxiety and depression. Many of my clients are juggling work, relationships, and health while struggling to be kind to themselves. Therapy with me is a space to slow down, regain balance, and reconnect with what matters most.
I believe you deserve support that meets you with compassion and respect. Seeking therapy can feel intimidating, but it’s also a powerful step toward healing and growth. My goal is to help you feel supported as you work through the habits, patterns, and stressors that have been holding you back.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Houston
Finding couples therapists in Houston starts with naming what you want to work on together. Couples counseling in Houston may focus on communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life transitions, parenting disagreements, or premarital counseling. Not all therapists have specific training in working with couples, so look for licensed marriage and family therapists or therapists who list couples modalities such as the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy in their profiles.
Houston has a large network of therapists, which can make the search broad across neighborhoods like Montrose, the Heights, Midtown, and the Texas Medical Center area. For couples therapy in Houston, Texas, the right fit also needs to work for both partners’ schedules, session preferences, and location needs. Some couples prefer in-person sessions with a relationship therapist in Houston, TX, while others prefer virtual appointments that are easier to fit around work, childcare, or commute times. Reading therapist bios can help you compare communication style, approach, availability, and whether a free phone consultation is offered to assess fit for couples specifically.
Relationship counseling in Houston can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before booking. Headway helps you find marriage counselors in Houston who are accepting new patients, review detailed profiles, verify insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
