Hi, I’m Alice! I’m a dually certified Nurse Practitioner who takes an open-minded, direct, and solution-oriented approach to care. I work with clients on both their mental health and overall well-being, and I believe in creating a safe, welcoming space where you can feel comfortable being yourself. Together, we’ll focus on finding practical steps and solutions that help you feel better and more in control of your life.
I graduated from West Texas A&M University with a master's degree in Professional Counseling.
As an experienced clinical psychologist, I believe that healing begins with awareness. My practice is grounded in mindfulness and evidence-based approaches that help clients reconnect with their inner wisdom and build resilience through life's challenges.
Ersha Mitchell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 10 years of dedicated experience specializing in community mental health, crisis leadership, and integrated care models, with a robust specialization in virtual service delivery. Clients excel at maintaining clinical continuity and building strong therapeutic alliances entirely online. Professionally recognized for clinical resilience and remote crisis intervention, I utilize an integrative framework optimized for the digital space.
To say "things aren't always easy" is often an understatement. Sometimes things are more than hard, and may have been piling up for a while. Whether you're battling depression, anxiety, grief, or changes in life, I'm here to help. I've worked with children, teens and adults in an inpatient psychiatric hospital, where they work to sort out their struggles. I have seen the damage trauma can do to relationships, but have also seen the power in connecting with others.
Empowering Growth Through Compassionate, Personalized Therapy
Welcome to Free Your Mind Counseling, where healing meets authenticity. My practice is founded on the belief that every individual deserves a safe and supportive space to heal, grow, and thrive. I provide personalized, culturally responsive therapy for trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and life transitions—grounded in empathy, respect, and collaboration.
I specialize in existential, eclectic, and integrative therapies, drawing from evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Psychodynamic, Humanistic, and Experiential frameworks. This flexible, holistic approach allows me to meet clients where they are—emotionally, mentally, and spiritually—rather than applying a one-size-fits-all method.
My academic foundation includes a Master of Arts in Counseling from Prairie View A&M University and a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice with a specialization in Juvenile Justice. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas, a National Certified Counselor (NCC), and bring over a decade of experience in the criminal justice system, substance use recovery programs, and diverse mental health settings.
I am also completing my Doctoral degree at Houston Christian University in the College of Education and Behavioral Sciences, majoring in Executive Mental Health and Human Services—a reflection of my commitment to advancing mental health leadership and community impact.
My philosophy centers on helping clients discover purpose, balance, and self-acceptance through integrative, trauma-informed care. I believe in engaging deeply—not just listening, but empowering transformation. My mission is to create a nonjudgmental space where healing isn’t just possible—it’s expected.
I understand that beginning therapy can seem intimidating and quite overwhelming, and many times, the toughest part of the experience is taking that first step. Still, you have made it here, and you are commencing your important journey to heal and rebuild yourself. I am grateful for the opportunity to meet with you and learn the best ways I can be of service. My practice style is very warm, caring, and collaborative.
