Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 13 mi away • Houston, TX


With over 45 years experience, clients consider me to be caring, direct, and engaging. Many things including stress both effect and are connected to your mental and physical health. Self care is very important and that will be a focus. People have some degree of trauma whether large or small which is a primary area of practice and experience for me. I utilize many tools including mindfulness, Brainspotting , Art and EMDR. I consider myself to be both empathetic, inquisitive and Intuitive. I currently only work with adults.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Sugar Land, TX

Searching for therapists in Sugar Land starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist experience fits your needs. People often look for therapy in Sugar Land for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, life transitions, or work stress. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and therapy style match what you want to focus on. A bio that mentions cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, couples counseling, or another relevant approach can help you understand how that therapist may work with you.

In a smaller city like Sugar Land, local appointment options may be more limited than in Houston, especially if you want a specific specialty, schedule, or in-person office near Telfair, New Territory, or Greatwood. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Texas. Along with specialty, consider whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.

Therapy in Sugar Land can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and get a clearer estimate before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, and you can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm coverage available in Sugar Land, review estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book when you’re ready. You can enter your insurance details, review estimated out-of-pocket costs, read therapist bios, and book directly when you’re 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.
