Therapist

Have you ever felt like you're accomplishing everything but still feel unfulfilled or unsatisfied? Do you give so much of yourself to others that little is left for you at the end of the day? Does your child's behaviors (fighting, defiance, truancy, argumentative) leave you wondering what's really going on beneath the surface. It just might be time to take a deeper look.

I’m Tiana Welch, a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, providing telehealth therapy for children, teens, and young adult/adult women. With six years of experience, I have supported clients facing many challenges, including mental health concerns, behavioral issues, and substance abuse. My passion lies in helping children, teens, and families take a deeper look at behaviors to uncover the root causes, and in supporting young adult and adult women as they peel back the layers of perfectionism, burnout, and societal expectations to reconnect with their true selves.

Outside of therapy, I enjoy attending Pilates and spin classes, coloring, painting, reading, and exploring new creative hobbies like learning to sew (this month).

Happy patient looking away

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Houston, TX

Finding family therapists in Houston starts with knowing what kind of support your family needs. Family therapy can help with parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, communication breakdowns, and stress across generations. Licensed family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare therapists for family issues, look for bios that mention family systems, marriage and family therapy, parent-child relationships, or experience with counseling family problems.

Houston’s size can make the search feel wide, from the Heights and Montrose to Midtown, West Houston, and nearby suburbs. Some families prefer in-person sessions, while others choose virtual appointments to make scheduling across multiple people easier. Session structure can also vary. A family therapist may meet with the full family, smaller groups, parents, couples, or individual family members, depending on the goals of care. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for availability, approach, and whether they offer a phone consultation to discuss fit and structure.

Family counseling in Houston, TX can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find licensed family therapists who may accept a variety of insurance plans, are accepting new patients, and offer clear appointment options. You can compare profiles, check estimated costs, and book directly when you’re ready.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
