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 believe in engaging deeply—not just listening, but empowering transformation. My mission is to create a nonjudgmental space where healing isn’t just possible—it’s expected.
I’m passionate about facilitating your individual success. I strongly believe in collaboration and partnering to achieve your personal goals. I believe that you are the expert in your life and my role is to facilitate putting the puzzle together. My overall style is warm and compassionate.
I believe that every person deserves to feel heard, respected, and supported without judgment. As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, my goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you can openly discuss your concerns and work toward meaningful change. I understand that seeking mental health care can feel overwhelming, and I strive to make the process approachable, collaborative, and personalized. I'm committed to partnering with you to help you achieve your goals.
I have a very mellow, approachable style, and my main goal is to help my patients reach their goals. Many of the people I work with feel like they haven’t been truly heard before, or that medication was presented as their only option. I take time to listen and make sure you feel comfortable, understood, and involved in your care. I also grew up in an immigrant household, where mental health wasn’t always talked about or seen as an option, and that experience really shaped how I work with my patients today.
Finding the right mental health provider can feel like a big step — and I want you to know you're already in the right place.
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.
Hello! I’m Sydney Fowler, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Board-Certified Music Therapist based in San Antonio, Texas. I specialize in working with trauma, anxiety, and depression, as well as individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. I am EMDR-trained and bring a thoughtful, creative lens to evidence-based care.
