I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with individuals, families, and couples ages 8 and up. I have experience supporting clients through a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, grief, ADHD, and behavioral challenges. My background includes a Bachelor of Science in Psychology with a minor in Christian Studies from Mississippi College, and a Master of Education in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Texas Tech University. I aim to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel comfortable being open and honest. I value building strong, authentic relationships with the people I work with, and I strive to meet each client where they are. For those who desire it, I also integrate a biblical perspective alongside practical counseling tools.
You're nice. Maybe too nice. You say yes when you want to say no. You apologize for things that aren't your fault. You replay conversations, worry about disappointing people, and make sure everyone else happy. You're also exhausted. No one sees the pressure you're under, the guilt you feel when you put your own needs first, or how hard it is to relax. You tell yourself you're overreacting or being dramatic. You're not. You don't have to choose between being kind and taking care of yourself.
Hello! I am Peace Popoola, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a passion for helping individuals and families navigate life's challenges. I am also certified as a Perinatal Therapist (PMH-C). You don't have to be "fine" all the time. Whether you are struggling mood changes, relationship challenges or perinatal grief/loss, I provide a judgement-free space to release emotions and take a break from chaos.
Hi, My name is Manuela, a Bilingual Licensed Professional Counselor who is passionate about helping others LIV their best lives! I completed my Bachelor Degree in Psychology from the University of the Incarnate Word in 2015 and a Master Degree in Counseling from Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi in 2019.
You’re doing your best—but parenting can feel heavy. Maybe your child is having big emotions, struggling with anxiety, or acting out in ways that worry you. Maybe you’re exhausted, overwhelmed, and wondering if you’re doing enough. You're not alone—and you don’t have to figure it all out by yourself. I work with moms and children (ages 3–17) who are navigating the hard stuff—anxiety, trauma, life changes, or just the emotional weight of everyday life. Whether your child needs support, or you do (or both), I provide a safe, compassionate space where healing begins and hope grows

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Texas
Searching for therapists in Texas starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. Across a state as large and varied as Texas, therapy needs and available therapists can differ across urban, suburban, and rural areas. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or major life changes. Review each therapist’s listed specialties, approach, and experience to see whether their background matches your needs. Some therapists may use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, while others may focus on specific populations or concerns.
Location and format also matter when comparing Texas therapists. In larger areas like Houston, Dallas, and Austin, you may have many choices, while other parts of the state may have fewer local options. Some people prefer meeting in person, while others choose virtual sessions for scheduling flexibility or easier access from home. As you narrow your search, look at appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you understand how they describe their style, what sessions may feel like, and whether their communication approach fits your preferences.
The cost of therapy in Texas can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for Texas therapists who match your preferences, accept your insurance, and are ready to take new patients. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans, and you can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. From there, you can compare therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
