Hi, I’m a licensed professional counselor and the founder of Transformed Therapy in Houston, TX. Since 2008, I’ve been walking alongside individuals, and families as they navigate anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, spiritual concerns, and major life transitions. While I work with men and women, as well as children and teens, a large part of my work is focused on helping men who are facing internal battles—feeling stuck, burned out, disconnected, or unsure of how to lead well in their families, careers, and personal lives.
Whether you're carrying stress silently, dealing with anger or shame, questioning your purpose, or struggling to be the individual you want to be, I provide a place where you can be honest, real, and heard. My approach is practical, faith-centered, and grounded in personal accountability, growth, and grace.
Before launching Transformed Therapy, I served as Director at Memorial Christian Counseling Center and CEO at Integrative Mental Health Solutions, leading crisis response teams across Houston. I also spent 11 years in full-time ministry as a youth and outreach minister, which deeply shaped my commitment to soul care and spiritual restoration.
I hold a Master of Education in Counseling from the University of North Texas and a BA in Philosophy from UT Arlington. When I’m not in session, I’m spending time outdoors with my wife and our five kids—camping, fishing, gardening, or simply enjoying God's creation.
If you're ready to step into change—whether it’s for your mental health, your marriage, your faith, or your identity—I’d be honored to walk with you.
What I most want to impress upon you all is that I myself, have over 210 hours on the couch. I have been engaged in my own inner work since 2013. I continue and plan to always dig deeper within to extract every inch of meaning that is possible to obtain on this journey of life to leave this world a little better than I found it.
As a faith-based holistic therapist in Texas, I focus on aiding you navigate life’s challenges and heal from past experiences. I consider the whole person—mind, body, and spirit—to help you discover your strengths and build resilience. Whether you're facing relationship issues, anxiety, or trauma, I’m here to support your growth. If you're open to it, I can incorporate faith into our sessions, but I respect all belief systems. My goal is to create a non-judgmental space for positive change.
I specialize in working with adults navigating trauma, chronic pain, and ADHD. These challenges can leave you feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure of how to move forward. But you don’t have to go through it alone. I bring not only my professional expertise but also my own personal experience of healing. I know firsthand how intimidating and overwhelming the journey can be. That’s why I’m committed to walking alongside you as a compassionate guide offering tools, empathy, and a safe space for you to explore your past, present, and the future you want to create.
I am passionate about creating a safe and non-judgmental space for my clients. I am committed to helping my clients identify and navigate their feelings, learn healthier coping skills, and ultimately find hope and heal. I have worked with adults and adolescence with eating disorders, substance and behavioral addictions, personality disorders, bipolar disorder, co-dependency, trauma, anxiety, and depression.
You might not even be able to imagine happiness because you never learned how to dream. As a collaborative, strengths-based therapist, I can teach you to understand where that comes from, so you can grow into your identity(ies) and start dreaming of your future. This is called thriving.
Some of the hardest seasons people walk through happen around the arrival of new life, the slow unraveling of a relationship, or the quiet grip of something they have never said out loud. I work across all of those seasons as a Licensed Professional Counselor serving children, adolescents, and adults.
Greetings, I am a therapist in private practice for over fifteen years. I am dually licensed as a mental health therapist and an addictions therapist.
I’m Emily, owner of Alive and Whole Wellness and a Houston-based therapist. I specialize in therapy for lasting change by helping my clients heal at the root of their anxiety and move forward in life alive in purpose, whole in identity, and free from fear.
What to expect through therapy
Imagine a space where...
- You have a safe, trusting relationship where you freely and securely share your story.
- You identify the roots of your struggles and experience healing in mind, body, and spirit.
- You learn to reconnect with your sense of self and step back into life alive, whole, and free.
- Your past no longer keeps you feeling stuck, but becomes a part of your testimony as you move forward.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Pearland
Searching for therapists in Pearland starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. You may be looking for care related to anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for specialties and approaches that fit your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or couples counseling. A therapist’s profile can also help you understand their style, what they focus on, and what a first session may include.
Pearland has therapist offices near neighborhoods like Silverlake, Shadow Creek Ranch, and areas near Pearland Town Center, but local appointment options may vary by schedule, specialty, and location. Virtual therapy can expand your options across Texas while still helping you work with a licensed therapist who fits your preferences. When narrowing your search, consider whether the therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that match your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you compare communication style, clinical focus, and whether the therapist works with adults, couples, or families.
Therapy in Pearland can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for Pearland therapists who take insurance, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between in-person and virtual appointments when available. You can browse therapists, review profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
