Sonia Albin

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 11 mi away • Houston, TX


I have lived in and outside of Mexico, Houston, Seattle, and Maine, and have felt at home in a number of ecosystems. I’ve held many titles: marine biologist, research scientist, environmental educator, elementary school teacher, farmer, barista, mom...I come from a multi-national, multi-cultural family. When I’m not therapizing, I’m outside with my family and my pets, gardening, writing, moving my body, and goofing off.

I dedicated the first part of my career to connecting with nature through science, outdoor adventure education, and horticulture, while doing my own therapeutic work. Nature has always been part of my healing and how I care for others. I graduated from the University of Washington with a BS in Aquatic and Fisheries Science, and earned my master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of St. Thomas in Houston. I have 8 years of combined experience in eating disorder treatment at every level of care. My 5 years of private practice experience has centered on complex trauma presentations.

Candra Smith

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

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


Candra is a psychiatric nurse practitioner who is funny, driven, loyal, compassionate, and, most importantly, a human being who genuinely cares about people. I strive daily to serve clients who need support reaching their goals in life.

Whether you are a teen trying to find your way, a struggling college student, navigating corporate America, a single parent juggling it all, or an overachiever who needs permission to rest, I am here to help meet your needs. Not everyone needs medication. Sometimes, people simply need someone to talk to who actually cares, listens, and understands. Others may need assistance with medication, and that is perfectly fine too. When medication is appropriate, we will work together to find an option that best meets your individual needs. I provide an integrative approach to mental health care that is holistic, realistic, practical, and safe. Whether you are dealing with depression, anxiety, insomnia, ADHD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, trauma, a breakup, a bad grade, a failed marriage, job loss, or simply a difficult season of life, I can help. My goal is for you to leave each session feeling heard, supported, and clear about your next steps. Healing isn’t a solo journey, and I’m here to walk it with you.

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 a Therapist in Sugar Land

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.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
