I'm Abioye, a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with years of experience helping people work through anxiety, depression, PTSD, mood disorders, and psychosis. I see clients ages 6 and up, so whether you're seeking support for your child, yourself, or a loved one, I'm here for your whole family.
I am a licensed mental health professional dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with empathy, clarity, and evidence‐based care.
Hello, and welcome. I believe that feeling safe, seen, respected, and accepted is an important part of the therapeutic process. I am committed to creating a welcoming environment that values and reflects diversity and inclusivity for all, and I strive to cultivate a warm supportive space where you can bring your whole self and feel free to be who you are.
I see the body as a powerful part of the healing process and a gateway to deeper self-awareness. My approach is grounded in somatic counseling psychology, with a foundation in body psychotherapy and dance movement therapy. I also draw from Kundalini yoga, Jungian dream and shadow work, mindfulness, meditation, regression therapy, ancestral healing practices, and conscious dance movement. I bring these perspectives together in a relational and intuitive approach that makes room for creativity, curiosity, and honest, straightforward guidance.
My work is holistic and integrative, honoring the connection between mind, body, heart, and spirit. When working with trauma, I draw from approaches such as Somatic Experiencing (SE), Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Gestalt Parts Work, and Imagery Therapy.
I am deeply and extremely passionate about mental health and providing the utmost care for my clients. I am very warm and practice positivity, kindness, active listening/understanding and trauma informed care. It is very important to me that you feel heard, seen and accepted. Even when you may not feel your best or find yourself at your lowest, I want you to know that I’ll be right there in your corner. Together, we’ll explore strategies and tools to support your overall well-being and help you navigate life’s challenges with greater confidence and resilience.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), who is trained in Play Therapy and Autplay Therapy, which is a specialized therapeutic approach for children and adolescents with neurodevelopmental differences, including autism, ADHD, sensory differences, social anxiety, learning differences, and other developmental or physical disabilities. It is neurodiversity-affirming, meaning it values the unique strengths of each child while addressing areas of challenge in a supportive and inclusive manner. AutPlay Therapy is designed so that parents are not just observers but active, trained “co‐therapists” who work alongside the child and the therapist to meet therapy goals at home twccllc.net. This collaborative approach ensures that the child’s progress is sustained beyond the therapy session, creating a “Co‐Regulation Loop” where parents and children regulate emotions and behaviors together.
With adults or couples, I take a holistic approach to counseling that looks at the mind, body, and spirit. I integrate spiritual practices into my counseling sessions by creating a safe and open space for clients to explore their beliefs and values. My aim is to assist you in overcoming life’s challenges and achieving your fullest potential by exploring deeper meaning and purpose in your life. I use a mix of different methods to tailor my approach to each person, creating a supportive and empathetic environment for growth and healing. My diverse experience helps me connect with people from all walks of life.
Outside of work, I enjoy horseback riding, spending time with my pups, serving at my church’s Youth Ministry, and staying active with CrossFit. These activities keep me balanced and fulfilled, and I bring that energy into my counseling practice.
Hi! I'm Amy. From my background in early childhood education, to my master's in counseling from the University of North Texas, from an internship with an addiction-focused residential site to EMDR training to clinical leadership in a partial hospitalization program, I use my wide breadth of experience to inform my practice.
I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing telehealth care across Texas. I’m passionate about helping clients feel heard, understood, and supported throughout their mental health journey. I believe every patient deserves a safe, judgment-free space to explore their challenges, build coping skills, and work toward emotional balance.
I prioritize collaboration and open communication, so you’ll always be an active participant in your care. My goal is to help you feel confident, empowered, and supported as you navigate your mental health journey.
Life can get heavy—whether you’re juggling family dynamics, relationship stress, parenting challenges, or just trying to stay afloat. Maybe you’ve always been the dependable one, the person everyone else leans on, but you’re starting to realize it’s time to focus on yourself. You want less tension, more connection, and practical tools that actually make a difference. You’re not after a quick fix—you just want someone real to help you sort things out and walk with you through the hard parts.
