Example: "I have always wanted a job where I was of service to others, but I didn't know how to channel that into a career until I took an introduction to psychology course in college. We learned a lot about mental illness, what causes it and different ways to treat it, which inspired me to pursue my degree. I loved the idea of helping others overcome mental illness and helping them achieve their life goals."

“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.

Therapist

Virtual • Texas


With more than 25 years of experience in behavioral health, I specialize in working with professional women, caregivers, and healthcare professionals who are navigating burnout, life transitions, anxiety, relationship challenges, self-esteem concerns, and substance use recovery. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a background in substance use treatment, military social work, and medical social work with the Department of Veterans Affairs, I bring both clinical expertise and genuine lived experience to our work together.

I know firsthand how easy it is for women to lose themselves in the demands of work and family. As a retired VA social work supervisor, breast cancer survivor, and someone who has navigated burnout while caring for others, I bring deep empathy to every session — not just training. I provide virtual therapy, so you can access support from wherever feels most comfortable.

Anxiety treatment is most effective when it’s active and collaborative, with practice that continues between sessions. This often includes readings and between-session exercises. Many people who haven’t found relief in traditional talk therapy discover that evidence-based approaches feel very different—and far more effective. With over 20 years as an anxiety specialist, we'll get you feeling better fast.

Fizza Butt

Fizza Butt

Therapist

Virtual • Houston, TX


I am a versatile mental health professional dedicated to supporting individuals of all ages across Texas. I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling and bring an extensive dual background as both a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Certified School Counselor (CSC). This unique combination allows me to expertly bridge the gap between school system dynamics and deep clinical healing.

I adopt a highly personalized approach to therapy, rejecting "one-size-fits-all" treatment. Instead, I use from a diverse therapeutic toolkit to tailor sessions entirely to each individual's needs. My core specialties include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for restructuring unhelpful thought patterns, Play Therapy to help children process emotions naturally, and Trauma-Informed Care to provide a safe, structured space for healing.

My dual credentialing gives me a profound understanding of childhood development, student academic stressors, and school-based interventions. However, my clinical expertise extends far beyond the classroom, allowing me to successfully guide adults and families through life transitions, anxiety, and complex trauma. No matter the client's age, I am committed to meeting people exactly where they are on their mental health journey.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

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.
