Therapist

Virtual • Texas


Sometimes the challenges we face aren’t just internal—they show up in our relationships, our families, our behavior, and the way we navigate everyday life.

You may be a parent feeling overwhelmed by your child’s emotional or behavioral struggles. You may be a teen or young adult trying to manage anxiety, stress, identity questions, or intense emotions that feel difficult to control. Or you may be an adult navigating family conflict, trauma, or long-standing patterns that affect how you connect with others.

I’m Nikkida, a Licensed Professional Counselor with over a decade of experience working with individuals, adolescents, and families across a wide range of settings, including community mental health, high-risk youth populations, and trauma-informed care environments. I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, behavioral challenges, ADHD, and family and relational conflict.

My work focuses on helping people better understand what’s happening beneath the surface and building practical, sustainable ways to create change.
