Couples therapists in Sugar Land, TX

Hello! My name is Ashley Harris, and I believe that counseling is for everyone. I have been a counselor for more than five years and I specialize in working this individuals and families who live with disabilities both mental and physical. I obtained my Master's Degree in professional counseling with a specialization in Rehabilitation Counseling and I am so glad that you are here!

I am a holistic, trauma-informed psychotherapist, traditional medicine apprentice, and the founder of The Collab. Grounded in values of honesty, deep respect, and genuine connection, my practice views mental health through a multi-dimensional lens—honoring the profound relationship between mind, body, spirit, and community. My mission is to provide culturally responsive, decolonial care that moves away from rigid, one-size-fits-all frameworks and instead centers collective healing, generational resilience, and the unique cultural contexts of every individual I serve.

I hold a Master of Education in Guidance and Counseling from the University of Texas at El Paso. Over my career, I have specialized in serving children, adolescents, adults, and families navigating complex trauma, life transitions, grief, and anxiety. I create an authentic, inclusive space where clients of all backgrounds can safely untangle complex narratives, honor their unique heritage, and discover their innate capacity for self-healing.

Something happened to you, and it is still with you. Maybe it shows up in your sleep, or in your body, or in the way you brace for things that have not happened yet. Maybe you have carried it long enough that you have stopped expecting it to change. I'm Lacresa, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas, and helping adults heal from trauma and PTSD is the center of my work. I hold a Master's degree in Counseling and Development from Lamar University, and I work with adults ages 18 and older. What I offer is a safe, welcoming, and open-minded space where you can tell me what happened without managing my reaction to it and without any fear of being judged for it. I'm passionate about partnering with people who are ready to process difficult experiences and make meaningful changes, and I want to be clear that ready does not have to mean certain. Most people arrive unsure. Wanting something to be different is enough to start. Trauma has a way of convincing you that you are the exception to everything, including help. You are not.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, relationship stress, or difficult life experiences? You might be struggling to manage emotions, feeling stuck in patterns that aren’t working, or unsure how to move forward. I work with children, teens, adults, and couples facing challenges like depression, trauma, family conflict, and major life transitions. Together, we’ll create a space where you feel understood, supported, and equipped with tools to build confidence, improve relationships, and feel more in control of your life.

Amanda has 8 years of clinical experience in trauma-informed therapy. Amanda has a background in long-term rehabilitation, psychological assessments, inpatient, outpatient, individual, and group therapy.

I earned my bachelor's in Psychology at Smith College and my master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Rowan University. I believe in tailoring my clients' experience to their likes and needs. I enjoy creative therapy, ACT, manifestations, physical activity, CBT, and strength-based approaches to help individuals reach their full potential.

I am a wife and mother and have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. I enjoy using creative outlets to help make therapy a fully integrated experience.

I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely safe, heard, and understood. My goal is to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can openly process your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and life experiences without feeling rushed or criticized. I understand that starting therapy can feel vulnerable, so I approach each client with compassion, curiosity, and respect for their unique story and lived experience.

My style is warm, relational, and conversational while still grounded in evidence-based practices. I work collaboratively with clients to help them better understand emotional patterns, increase self-awareness, strengthen communication, and develop practical tools they can use outside of sessions. I value creating a therapeutic relationship that feels authentic and empowering, where clients can feel comfortable being honest, asking questions, and moving at a pace that feels manageable for them.

I work with individuals navigating stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, self-esteem concerns, emotional overwhelm, and patterns that may leave them feeling stuck or disconnected from themselves. Together, we focus on creating meaningful and sustainable change while also making space for reflection, healing, and personal growth.
