Individuals ages 18 and older are only being accepted at this time.
I enjoy working with people of color and others of diverse backgrounds to help them navigate through the life events that contribute to depression, anxiety, adjustment challenges, or any other emotional irregularities that affect their ability to function the way they want to.

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’m a seasoned psychotherapist who helps individuals and couples create healthy, fulfilling relationships—starting from within. My approach is warm, empathic, and solutions-focused, combining mindful insight with practical strategies for real-life change.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor with experience in hospital-based care, trauma work, and cross-cultural mental health, my practice is guided by the belief that healing starts with safety, clarity, and being truly understood. I offer a steady, compassionate presence and a culturally attuned perspective, respecting both the science of the mind and your personal narrative. I am dedicated to providing care that is thoughtful, grounded, and respectful of your entire experience.
Hi, I’m Noemi. I work with young adults who seem to have it together on the outside but struggle on the inside with deep anxiety, intense stress, or depression that makes it hard to focus, enjoy life, or feel settled in who they are. If you feel like you’re trying really hard but still can’t tap into your strengths or make sense of your place in the world, you’re not alone — and I’d be glad to walk alongside you as you begin to feel more grounded and less overwhelmed.
I came to counseling after having already completed a successful career and was looking for something different. I completed graduate school in Texas and have since become licensed in both Texas and Colorado. The majority of my work is in general counseling and I also work with couples and families. I have worked for University of Texas schools as well as for the University of Alabama. While working in the UT system schools I helped with veterans issues and transition to civilian life. During Covid I provided counseling for military families and first responders.

In my work, I strive to create a warm and nurturing space where you can show up exactly as you are — no judgment, just understanding. Together, we’ll explore your experiences, uncover patterns, and move toward emotional healing and personal growth at a pace that feels right for you.

Find the right counselor for your family
Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Richmond
Finding family therapists in Richmond starts with identifying what your family is navigating and what kind of support fits best. Family therapy can help with parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, communication patterns, and stress during major life changes. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, which means they look at how family members interact with each other rather than focusing only on one person. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with family systems, child and adolescent concerns, communication issues, or marriage counseling in Richmond if relationship support is part of your search.
Richmond is a smaller city, so local in-person family therapy options may be more limited than in larger nearby areas. Virtual appointments can expand your search while still keeping care accessible from home. Family therapy may include the full family, a parent and child, partners, siblings, or individual family members depending on the goals for care. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for scheduling availability, whether they are accepting new clients, session structure, and how they describe their approach to working with families. A free phone consultation can also help you ask how they typically structure family sessions.
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 and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find family therapists who match your needs, many of whom take insurance, and offer clear booking details. You can enter your insurance information, see estimated costs before booking, review therapist bios, and choose an in-person or virtual appointment when you are ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
