ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Victoria, TX

Hi, I’m Jada Washington, and I’m a mental health professional with 11 years of clinical experience working with adolescents and adults. I support people who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and mood disorders, and I care deeply about helping each person feel seen, supported, and understood. My goal is to create a space where you can show up as you are and feel genuinely welcomed.

Hello, and welcome.

If you’re here, you may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, uncertain, or simply exhausted by the challenges life is bringing right now. You are not alone, and you do not have to navigate it by yourself. I believe that with support, self-awareness, and practical tools, meaningful change is possible.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with over 25 years of counseling experience working with adults from diverse backgrounds. Much of my work has focused on helping individuals manage anxiety, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, academic pressures, career uncertainty, and work-life balance. I have extensive experience supporting college students, professionals, and individuals navigating periods of change, self-doubt, and personal growth.

My counseling style is supportive, collaborative, and solution-focused. I integrate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Gottman-informed relationship approaches to help clients build insight, resilience, and meaningful change. Together, we will explore patterns, identify strengths, and develop strategies that align with your values and goals.

I strive to create a space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to take ownership of their growth and wellbeing. My hope is that therapy helps you build clarity, confidence, balance, and a stronger sense of purpose moving forward.

Welcome! I have over 11 years of experience successfully assisting clients navigating a variety of challenges. I have been on both sides of the therapeutic process as a client, parent, spouse and provider. I know firsthand the powerful and positive impact therapy can have in our lives.

I'm Rita, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, dedicated to guiding individuals through their mental health journeys with compassion and evidence-based care.

I am a Texas-licensed professional counselor with experience in hospital behavioral health, substance-use treatment, and individual and group counseling. I earned a Master of Science from Prairie View A&M University, where my clinical training included assessment, psychopathology, addiction, group therapy, and individual psychotherapy.

I support clients experiencing anxiety, depression, emotional distress, life transitions, relationship concerns, substance-use challenges, and recovery-related needs. My professional background includes working with clients in hospital, behavioral health, and substance-use treatment settings.

Clients often describe my style as calm, compassionate, patient, and easy to talk to. I understand that emotional health is connected to relationships, daily habits, physical well-being, culture, and life experiences. My background in community wellness, yoga, meditation, and laughter also supports my whole-person perspective. Above all, I want clients to feel respected, understood, and supported as they work toward meaningful and lasting change.

“Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”

― Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning

I am a firm believer that life–even the best of lives– has moments of pain and suffering; however great or small. Some come to pass quickly and float away from our consciousness, while others stay with us, shape us, change our relationships and the way we see the world. The rest of our life is filled with moments dependent on how we cope with, process and accept those moments of pain or suffering.
