I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I’m offering a background of over 15 years’ experience and advanced formal education in social services, mental health counseling, individual & group counseling, client relations, case management, and crisis intervention. My formal education includes a Bachelor of Science degree in Social Work from the historical black college, WV State University; along with a Master of Science degree in Social Work from University of St. Francis.
Hello, and welcome. My name is Danielle, and I'm so glad you're here. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor in Houston, Texas. I believe in the power of therapy, and I know that taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming. I want you to know that you don't have to navigate life's challenges alone.
My goal is to create an open, supportive, safe, and non-judgmental space where you feel heard, valued, and understood. Together, we'll explore the thoughts, emotions, and experiences that may be keeping you stuck while developing practical tools to help you manage anxiety, build resilience, and create meaningful change.
I am passionate about helping adolescents and adults develop a healthier relationship with themselves, food, and the people in their lives. I believe healing begins with self-compassion, understanding, and connection. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, emotional eating, body image, relationship challenges, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself, we'll work together to help you reconnect with your strengths, find balance, and move toward the life you want to live.
You might look like you’re holding it all together, but inside feel overwhelmed, anxious, or unsure of who you are right now and that can be exhausting. I work with teens, young adults, and women navigating big transitions and all the feelings that come with them. I offer a warm, supportive space where you can exhale, be honest, and start making sense of things. Together, we’ll help you feel more grounded, confident, and work on growing into your next chapter.
I am deeply passionate about supporting parents as they navigate the many challenges that can come with raising a family while maintaining healthy, loving relationships with their children. Balancing the constant demands of parenting while also trying to care for your own needs, identity, and well-being can be incredibly exhausting. Many parents find themselves feeling overwhelmed, stretched thin, or disconnected from the version of themselves they once knew.
What I’ve discovered through my work with parents and families—and through my own experience as a mom of two—is that prioritizing a parent’s mental health is not selfish; it is one of the greatest gifts you can give your child. When parents feel supported, healthy, and emotionally grounded, it creates the foundation for a stronger, more connected, and more rewarding parent-child relationship.
Looking for someone who will truly listen and meet you where you are? I believe everyone needs support at times, and I strive to be that steady, compassionate presence in therapy. Clients often describe me as warm, open-minded, and easy to talk to. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, heard, respected, and comfortable showing up exactly as you are—without pressure or judgment.

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.
