*SUPPORTING CLIENTS AGES 18+

Sis, I get it. "Life be lifing", and sometimes you need a space where you don’t have to explain why you're tired, guarded, or feeling everything all at once. I’m not here to fix you, I’m here to walk with you, help you unpack the heavy stuff, and remind you of the strength you already carry. Therapy with me feels like a real convo, with honesty, laughter, maybe a few tears, and definitely no judgment. I hold space for women who carry a lot but rarely feel seen.

Here’s a little bit more about me: I’m a wife and a proud mom in a beautifully blended family of five. When I’m not in therapist mode, you’ll probably find me spending time with my people, trying out a new restaurant (total foodie over here!), binge-watching whatever’s trending on Netflix, or indulging in some well-deserved self-care. I believe in pouring from a full cup, and I’m passionate about helping you do the same.

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.
