Therapist

My approach to therapy is warm, culturally attuned, and practical. I believe that meaningful change happens when clients feel safe, understood, and supported while also gaining tools they can use in their daily lives.

As a multilingual therapist offering services in English, Farsi, and Turkish, I bring a culturally responsive lens to my work. I understand the complexities of navigating identity, family expectations, and cross-cultural experiences, and I strive to create a space where all parts of your story are respected.

I value collaboration and tailor each session to meet your individual needs. Whether you are working through anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions, we will move at a pace that feels right for you while still maintaining forward progress.

My goal is not only to help you feel better, but to help you build the skills and confidence to manage challenges independently and create lasting change.

Hi, I’m Ariel. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I believe that every person has the capacity for growth, healing, and change even when life's challenges make that difficult to see. I've found that healing happens when people feel truly seen, understood, and empowered - and therapy should be a place where you don’t have to hold it all together alone.

When anxiety, painful experiences, or constant worry begin affecting your relationships, confidence, or daily life, it can feel like you're carrying more than anyone else realizes. You may be trying to hold everything together for your family while quietly struggling yourself, wondering if things will ever feel easier. Healing is possible, and you don't have to face those challenges alone. I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, bipolar disorder, OCD, grief and loss, and trauma so they can regain a sense of stability, strengthen their relationships, and move forward with greater confidence. With more than 13 years of experience, I work with adults, adolescents, and children, offering therapy in both English and Spanish while creating a compassionate, supportive environment where every client feels understood, respected, and empowered to grow.

Happy patient looking away

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 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.
