Hello,
I'm Abosede Olufemi, PMHNP-BC, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care for children, adolescents, adults, and older adults in a safe, supportive, and judgment-free environment. I specialize in the evaluation and treatment of anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, OCD, insomnia, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, and other mood and psychotic disorders through comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and personalized treatment plans tailored to each client's unique needs and goals.
My personal and professional experiences have shaped my passion for supporting others through life’s transitions. As a military spouse for many years, I experienced firsthand the challenges of relocation, adapting to new environments, and rebuilding support systems. I have experience supporting individuals and families through grief, medical challenges, and emotional stress in both medical and school settings. I support adults navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, and feelings of overwhelm or disconnection. I especially enjoy helping people through significant changes and adjusting to new seasons of life.
I believe healing begins when people feel genuinely seen, heard, and supported. As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), I provide a compassionate, trauma-informed approach that combines evidence-based therapy with a genuine, collaborative relationship.
I work with teens, adults, couples, and families experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, stress, and family conflict. I also enjoy helping clients overcome people-pleasing, establish healthy boundaries, improve communication, and process difficult life experiences that continue to impact the present.
Before becoming a therapist, I spent 19 years working in public education, helping children, teens, and families navigate emotional challenges, strengthen communication, build resilience, and develop practical coping skills. That experience continues to shape my approach by meeting clients where they are and focusing on their unique strengths.
Hi Everyone, I'm Lorena, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner based in Texas, and I provide medication management and supportive psychiatric care for adults. I was raised in a Mexican American household, and I value culturally sensitive care that respects family dynamics, identity, and lived experience. I work with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, postpartum depression or anxiety, schizophrenia, and life stressors such as grief and family conflict. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable, understood, and not judged.
I attended Hardin-Simmons University in Abilene Texas and received my Master's in Family Psychology. After many years of work in a non profit adoption agency and in several psychiatric hospitals, I found my passion lies in working with individuals that want to explore their past to inform their current functioning. Although the hot "it" therapies offer quick fixes, I believe you must first understand yourself before you can understand the root of your issues.
I provide personalized mental health care for adults and adolescents struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, OCD, bipolar disorder, and related concerns. My focus is helping you feel better, think more clearly, and regain control of your daily life.
I offer comprehensive evaluations and medication management through secure telehealth across Texas, with in-person availability in the Dallas–Fort Worth area. Treatment is tailored to your unique needs, with careful attention to effectiveness, side effects, and long-term stability.
Hello, I'm Liliana! With over two and a half years of experience across residential and group practice settings, I have worked with individuals navigating addiction, depression, anxiety, trauma, personality disorders, and adjustment disorders. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and trauma-informed care, and I am trained in EMDR — an evidence-based approach for processing difficult experiences. I work with adolescents (15+), young adults, adults, and older adults, and I bring a comforting, reliable, and genuinely understanding presence to every session. My goal is for you to feel safe and supported from the moment we connect.
I specialize in helping couples and adults navigate relationship challenges, cultural differences, and major life transitions. My work is especially focused on couples who feel disconnected, stuck in recurring conflict, or unsure how to rebuild trust and emotional closeness. As a Level 3 Gottman Method-trained therapist, I help partners understand their patterns, communicate more effectively, and create a stronger relationship. I also support individuals balancing career, family, cultural adjustment, and the demands of a new chapter.
Reaching out for therapy is a courageous first step. If you're looking for a therapist who will meet you with compassion, curiosity, and a whole-person approach to healing, I'd be honored to support you on your journey. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and five years of clinical experience. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood. Whether you're facing a major life transition, struggling with anxiety, navigating relationship challenges, or simply feeling stuck, my goal is to create a space where you can safely explore what's happening beneath the surface and move toward lasting change.
Life can often feel like a series of overwhelming transitions, leaving you feeling disconnected or unsure of your next step. I provide a dedicated space for adults (22+) to slow down, reflect, and move forward with renewed clarity.
Whether you are navigating the complexities of trauma, managing a mood disorder, or facing significant life changes, my goal is to help you transform "feeling stuck" into a journey of intentional growth.
How We Will Work Together
My approach is relational, honest, and depth-oriented. Rather than just addressing surface-level symptoms, we will explore the unspoken beliefs and past experiences that quietly shape your daily life. By learning to listen to what your emotions are communicating, you can begin to respond to life’s challenges in ways that promote genuine healing and authentic connection.
Specialized Support for Couples
In addition to individual therapy, I specialize in marriage and pre-marital counseling. I help couples at all stages build resilient foundations, repair emotional disconnections, and foster a deeper sense of intimacy and mutual understanding.
**Please note: While I accept insurance for individual therapy, all couples counseling is private-pay only. Insurance does not cover relationship-focused therapy.
Your Journey Starts Here
You deserve a space where you are fully seen, heard, and empowered. No matter where you are in your journey, I am here to support you in creating meaningful, lasting change.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Houston
Finding postpartum therapists in Houston starts with identifying the kind of support that fits your needs. Postpartum concerns can include postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. Some people also look for pregnancy therapy, prenatal depression support, postpartum counseling, or therapy for new moms. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience in perinatal mental health, maternal mental health, or work with new parents. The PMH-C credential can also signal specialized training in perinatal mental health care.
Houston has a large mental health care community, and the number of options can make it harder to narrow your search. For new parents, practical details matter: appointment times, infant care, physical recovery, commute time, and whether a therapist offers virtual sessions. Virtual care can make it easier to meet with a postpartum therapist from home, while in-person care may fit better if you prefer an office setting. Reading therapist bios can help you see how they describe their approach, which concerns they support, and whether they offer a free phone consultation before booking.
Therapy in Houston can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who match your postpartum needs and are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details to confirm coverage and see which plans are accepted before you book. You can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, then review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
