I specialize in helping adults navigate challenges related to depression, anxiety, and life transitions.

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist rooted in the North Houston area. I bring a warm, steady, and emotionally attuned presence to the work. My background includes years of specialized training in couples therapy, attachment dynamics, and betrayal recovery, and I focus on helping individuals understand one another, communicate more clearly, and build healthier, more connected relationships.

Alongside my couples work, I support older adults and geriatric clients as they navigate life transitions, cognitive and emotional changes, and the unique relational challenges that come with aging. I also work extensively with individuals dealing with anxiety and depression, offering practical tools, emotional clarity, and a grounded therapeutic space where they can slow down, feel understood, and move toward meaningful change.

My style is direct, collaborative, and deeply human—centered on insight, accountability, and genuine connection.

You don't have to face life's challenges alone. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, struggling with the effects of trauma, navigating depression, or trying to better understand ADHD, therapy can provide a safe space to heal, grow, and move forward with confidence.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I work with teens, young adults, and families who are experiencing emotional, behavioral, and relationship challenges. I have been working with teens for 10 years in the juvenile system. I started off as a supervision officer in juvenile detention in the long-term program. I moved position to case manager in juvenile probation. Now I am a counselor for Juvenile probation. I understand that every person's story is unique, and I believe meaningful change begins with feeling seen, heard, and understood. My goal is to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where you can explore your experiences, build on your strengths, and develop practical tools for lasting change.

Whether you're a teen navigating life's pressures, a young adult adjusting to new responsibilities and transitions, or a family looking to improve communication and connection, I am committed to meeting you where you are. Therapy is a collaborative process, and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside my clients as they discover resilience, gain insight, and create meaningful, lasting change.

Taking the first step can feel intimidating, but you don't have to do it alone. When you're ready, I'm here to support you on your journey toward healing and emotional well-being.

As both a mental health and addiction professional, I bring a compassionate and holistic perspective to my work with clients. I understand that each person’s experiences are unique, and I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel comfortable exploring challenges, building on their strengths, and working toward meaningful change.

My educational background reflects my commitment to understanding the connection between mental health, trauma, and overall well-being. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Health Promotion with a minor in Psychology from Colorado State University–Pueblo, followed by a Master of Social Work with a concentration in Mental Health and Trauma from the University of Denver.

I believe therapy should feel less like performing and more like finally being able to exhale. My approach is warm, collaborative, insight-oriented, and rooted in genuine human connection. I specialize in psychoanalytic and narrative therapy, helping clients explore the deeper patterns, relationships, experiences, and stories that shape how they move through the world. Together, we work to uncover the “why” beneath recurring emotions, behaviors, relationship dynamics, and internal conflicts while also rewriting narratives that no longer serve you.

For me, I aim to help others transform their lives through compassionate, personalized care (with plenty of humor along the way). I specialize in working with people of color, student-athletes, and those who are neurodivergent. If you’re neurodivergent and reading this, you’ve finally found someone who specializes in and deeply understands your unique perspective. Whether seeking clarity on behaviors, understanding how you interpret the world, or navigating challenges, I am here to help.

Hì! My name is Ivelisse. I support clients facing challenges like anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions.
