Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Midlothian, TX covered by Cigna

Hi, I’m Kianté, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing virtual therapy to teens and adults throughout Texas. My background includes working with children, adolescents, adults, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, emotional regulation, life transitions, identity, relationships, and adoption-related experiences. I have a particular passion for working with adoptees and individuals exploring questions of identity, belonging, grief and loss, and the impact of past experiences on who they are today.

My approach to therapy is relational, collaborative, and individualized to each client. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), and Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI), while recognizing that therapy is not one-size-fits-all. I work to create a space where you can feel comfortable being yourself, exploring difficult emotions, and making sense of experiences without fear of judgment.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with compassion, understanding, and evidence-based care. My experience includes providing outpatient psychiatric care across the lifespan as well as caring for older adults in assisted living and memory care settings, giving me a broad perspective on mental health across different stages of life. I specialize in treating anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, depression, bipolar disorder, and other mood-related conditions. I work with adolescents ages 13 and older, adults, and older adults who may be struggling with anxiety, emotional overwhelm, difficulties with focus, mood changes, or the effects of past trauma.

I believe that every person deserves to feel heard, respected, and supported. Reaching out for mental health care can feel overwhelming, and my goal is to make that first step as comfortable as possible. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, trauma, PTSD, and other mood and stress-related concerns. I understand that every person's experiences are unique, so I take the time to truly listen before creating a treatment plan. My priority is to build a trusting relationship where you feel safe discussing your concerns and confident that we're working toward your goals together.

I believe that seeking support is a courageous step toward a more fulfilling life. My role is to walk alongside you—offering guidance, compassion, and tools tailored to your unique journey. If you're ready to begin, I’m here to help you move forward with clarity and confidence. I look forward to connecting with you.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and retired nurse with more than 25 years of experience in healthcare, social work, and behavioral health. Born in Texas and raised in Brazil and Chile, I’ve spent much of my life moving between cultures. I provide therapy in English, Spanish, and Portuguese and bring that multicultural perspective into my work.

I work with adults navigating anxiety and overthinking, depression, relationship difficulties, narcissism, grief and loss, caregiver stress, aging, identity concerns, and major life transitions. I also provide LGBTQ+ affirming therapy and help who want to create a meaningful life on their own terms and figure out what you want the next chapter of their life to look like.

I have a particular interest in helping people who have spent years being the dependable one—the partner, parent, caregiver, professional, or person everyone else turns to—and are beginning to ask, “What about me?”
