Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Lufkin, TX

Hi, I’m Kyoko (pronounced Ke-o-ko) and yes, I know my name may take a couple of tries! I believe therapy should be a space where you can be your whole, imperfect, wonderfully complicated self. I’m not the therapist who believes you have to sit on a couch while I wear a suit and nod seriously at everything you say. In fact, you probably won’t catch me wearing one. I believe there is room for honesty, hard conversations, growth, and even laughter in therapy.

That philosophy is part of the heart behind Konfetti & Spaghetti Therapy. Life can be beautiful, exciting, and worth celebrating, like confetti. And sometimes, it can feel like a completely tangled bowl of spaghetti. My job isn’t to judge the mess; it’s to help you untangle it.

I believe healing is revolutionary. Choosing to understand yourself, break unhealthy patterns, process what you've been through, and create a life that feels more authentic to you takes courage. Therapy doesn't have to be uptight or boring to be meaningful. Expect real conversations, practical tools, a little humor, and a therapist who will meet you where you are.

You don't have to have it all figured out before you come to therapy. Just come as you are and we'll figure out the rest together.
