Great to meet you
If you’re struggling with anxiety, overthinking, trauma, or relationship stress, you’re not alone. Many people face these challenges, and support is available to help you feel understood and less isolated.
I work with adults and adolescents who feel overwhelmed, mentally exhausted, or stuck in patterns they can’t seem to break. Many of my clients deal with high anxiety, racing thoughts, people-pleasing, and difficulty setting boundaries. Still, therapy can help you find hope and a way forward, even if it looks like you have everything together on the outside.
If you’re constantly overanalyzing, feeling on edge, or carrying the weight of past experiences, therapy can help you slow things down and regain control, empowering you to manage your thoughts and feelings more effectively.

With over 10 years of combined nursing and advanced practice experience, I provide evidence-based psychiatric care for adolescents, adults, and older adults experiencing a wide range of mental health conditions. I combine medication management with supportive therapy, psychoeducation, and practical coping strategies to help patients achieve lasting improvement.

Headway makes it easier to find support for overcoming addiction — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Richmond
Finding addiction therapists in Richmond starts with understanding the kind of support that fits your needs. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, substance use, prescription drug misuse, behavioral addictions, and concerns that overlap with anxiety, depression, or trauma. Look for a therapist whose profile lists experience with addiction, substance use, harm reduction, motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, or coordination with medication-assisted care. Some people may also work with a psychiatrist or other prescriber as part of their care team.
Richmond is a smaller market, so local in-person options may be more limited than in larger Texas cities. Virtual appointments can expand your search while still letting you choose a therapist who understands addiction care and fits your schedule. As you compare Richmond counselors, look at whether each therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that work for you, and describes a non-judgmental approach to care. Reading bios can help you understand how a therapist talks about recovery, relapse, harm reduction, and long-term support before you book.
Therapy in Richmond can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for addiction therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and compare virtual and in-person availability. You can browse therapists, read profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
