Find a therapist in Texas — covered by insurance

Hi, I'm Dr. Ruma Mian, a board-certified general psychiatrist and founder of Texas Triangle Adult Psychiatry. I believe every person is unique, and the best care begins by understanding your individual story. I have a diverse background in helping individuals struggling with depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, insomnia and other mental health conditions that are distressing. I aim to help individuals who feel overwhelmed, stuck, and may be struggling to find balance and transform turning points into new beginnings.

Please note: Texas Triangle provides comprehensive psychiatric evaluations and non-controlled medication management. I do not prescribe controlled substances (such as stimulants for ADHD or benzodiazepines for anxiety) to Texas Triangle patients at this time.

In addition to running a private clinic, I am also an Attending and Assistant Professor of Medicine at a local hospital in the Houston area. I completed my residency at the Carilion Clinic Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine.

Outside of medicine, my hobbies include enjoying the beautiful outdoors and riding my bike on a new trail.

Many of the people I work with are navigating profound turning points — preparing for adoption, navigating post adoption, moving through family transitions, or facing separations that reshape everything they've known. Others have quietly carried the weight of growing up without a strong family foundation, wondering why trusting others, or even themselves, still feels so hard. Whether you're a parent trying to show up for your child while processing your own pain, an adult learning to ask for what you need, or someone still figuring out who you are and what your purpose is, you've come to the right place.

I am extremely passionate about working with children, teens, and adults who have experienced trauma. I received a Masters of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Houston - Clear Lake. I am certified in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I am LGBTQ+ affirming and inclusive of all religions and cultural backgrounds.

To say "things aren't always easy" is often an understatement. Sometimes things are more than hard, and may have been piling up for a while. Whether you're battling depression, anxiety, grief, or changes in life, I'm here to help. I've worked with children, teens and adults in an inpatient psychiatric hospital, where they work to sort out their struggles. I have seen the damage trauma can do to relationships, but have also seen the power in connecting with others.

Welcome! I'm glad you've taken this step to consider working with me. I'm here to listen without judgment and do my best to help you with your concerns. Whatever it is you're going through, I'm ready to use my knowledge and experience to support you every step of the way. Thank you!

Prior to becoming an LPC, I was a Pre-K Teacher, an Elementary School Counselor and currently a Mental Health counselor for a local school district . I graduated with a Bachelor's from SouthWest Texas State University and a Master's Degree in School Counseling from Lamar University at Beaumont. I specialize in working with young children, adolescents through young adults in school type related issues such as anxiety, depression, life changes, grief and trauma.

Therapy provides the opportunity for one to become the best version of themselves. I work to help clients understand and identify their own strengths and incorporating coping skills while processing aspects of the past to create an understand to the causes of our behaviors. Helping other work through transitional periods of life such as life transitions, work, relationships, school, etc have also been a part of my clinical skills.

I work with individuals and families who are navigating life transitions, anxiety, ADHD, and relationship or family stress. Many of my clients come in feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward, but ready for meaningful change. Therapy with me is a space where you can feel supported, understood, and able to work toward greater clarity and growth. Clients often describe me as warm, approachable, and easy to talk to.

Are you struggling with issues related to trauma, grief, addiction, anxiety, depression, stress, insomnia, self-esteem and/or performance? There comes a time when we need some help from a certified professional to help cope with many of life’s challenges. I’m a licensed clinical social worker in Austin, TX and I’d love to help you on your journey toward healing and self-discovery.

Finding the right therapist is essential to your journey. I provide 15 minute consultation calls to ensure we are a good fit, so please feel free to reach out whenever you are ready to take that first step!

I help high-achieving girls and women who struggle with self-esteem and body image challenges. Many of my clients are “Type-A” personalities, excelling in school, careers, or competitive environments but feel trapped by an inner critic, fear of judgement, and a constant drive for control.
