Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Midland, TX

Hi, I’m Taylor Avery, an LCSW in Texas, and I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of North Texas. I specialize in working with individuals navigating substance use, trauma, grief and loss, life transitions, anxiety, and depression, and I have extensive experience in both individual and intensive outpatient settings.

I am an ANCC board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. Prior to this, I spent eleven years in Intensive Critical Care Nursing. I treat a wide range of mental health conditions, including Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, Sleep Disorder, PTSD, ADHD and more. I provide care with a holistic approach, prioritizing overall wellbeing. Emotional, social, spiritual, familial, and cultural wellbeing are integral to the care i provide. My clients can expect attentive care that addresses their concerns and challenges, fostering a sense of being cared for, empowered, and hopeful for recovery.

I have worked in both private practice and residential treatment settings with people who have experienced relational trauma. While my recent work has been adolescents in foster care, I have worked with adults of all ages with a variety of presenting issues. I enjoy helping teens and family members impacted by substance use, people struggling with attachment issues and families navigating adoption or the foster care system.

Nice to meet you! I'm Raymond, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health NP. I've worked in healthcare for over a decade, and have experience treating a wide range of conditions including but not limited to Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, OCD, Sleep Disorder, Mood Disorders, Grief, Bipolar Disorder, ADHD and more. My goal is to empower you toward meaningful, lasting mental wellness.

"The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others".

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people work through anxiety, trauma, relationship stress, and life changes. I’m also a mom and a PhD student, so I understand what it’s like to feel overwhelmed while trying to hold everything together. I believe healing isn’t a straight line—and that’s okay. In our sessions, you’ll find a safe, supportive space where we can figure things out together. Therapy with me is honest, down-to-earth, and all about helping you feel more in control of your life.

My primary focus is the restoration of the nervous system. I specialize in supporting recovery from complex, relational, and medical trauma. Because trauma impacts every layer of how we function, my practice also centers on the deeply connected challenges that come with it—including severe anxiety, chronic stress, mood fluctuations, complex personality patterns, and the profound journey of grief and loss.

I believe healing happens in a space where you feel safe, respected, and understood. My approach is trauma‐informed, culturally responsive, and grounded in compassion. I work collaboratively, at your pace, and without judgment. You can expect me to be honest, supportive, and consistent as we explore patterns, build skills, and work toward the life you want. My goal is to help you feel empowered, capable, and more connected to yourself and others. I believe you are the expert on your own life, and my role is to help you uncover your strengths, challenge unhelpful patterns, and create meaningful change. I meet you where you are and support you in moving forward at a pace that feels right for you.
