Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Pflugerville, TX


Professionally, I have spent a decade in education (five years as a classroom teacher and five years as a school counselor). This is my third year as a therapist outside of the school setting.

For my masters degree, I attended Texas State University in San Marcos, TX (Eat 'em up cats!). At Texas State, I completed my MA in Professional Counseling with two focuses: school counseling and clinical mental health.

As a former educator, the populations I support include adolescents, young adults, educators, parents/guardians, and caretakers.

“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.

Zayle Burson

Therapist

Virtual • Cleburne, TX


Hi, I’m Zayle—a licensed professional counselor with a passion for helping people navigate life’s challenges with compassion, understanding, and purpose.

Before becoming a therapist, I spent eight years as an elementary teacher, which taught me the value of patience, connection, and meeting people where they are. Now, as a counselor, I work with individuals of all ages—from children to older adults—helping them find clarity, healing, and confidence in themselves.

I specialize in supporting people who are dealing with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and women’s issues. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply not like yourself lately, my goal is to walk alongside you with empathy and encouragement. Together, we’ll explore what’s getting in the way of your peace and work toward creating a life that feels more manageable, balanced, and fulfilling.

My approach is centered around you. I believe therapy should be a safe, nonjudgmental space where your voice is heard and respected. I’ll offer guidance and support at your pace, helping you gain tools that fit your life, not just a textbook.

If you’re ready to start feeling more grounded, hopeful, and empowered, I’m here to help you take that first step.

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.
