Hello there! I know that life can be challenging, and at times, it can feel overwhelming to navigate everything on your own. If you’re feeling stuck, anxious, or simply in need of a space where you can process your thoughts and emotions freely, I want you to know that you don’t have to go through it alone. Therapy isn’t about fixing what’s “wrong” with you—it’s about embracing your story, discovering your strengths, and finding new ways to care for yourself. I’m here to offer warmth, understanding, and compassionate support as we work together toward these things.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a Master's degree in Counseling with a concentration in Marriage, Couples, and Family Counseling from Sam Houston State University. I have experience working with adjudicated youth in residential treatment, inpatient treatment, and at a PHP/IOP eating disorder treatment facility. My specialty areas include trauma, eating disorders, depression, anxiety, communication, and codependency. I approach therapy from a trauma-informed, client-centered perspective and am in alignment with Health at Every Size and Intuitive Eating principles that I incorporate into disordered eating and eating disorder treatment. I believe that the therapeutic relationship can be one of the most healing and safe relationships encountered so I strive to meet clients where they're at with empathy and genuineness. I aim to support clients and walk alongside them in their healing journey while highlighting their strengths. I am EMDR trained and enjoy incorporating EMDR into treatment as appropriate. I also utilize techniques and interventions from Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Exposure Response Prevention (ERP).

Hello! My name is Jennifer, and I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in the state of Texas. Congratulations on taking the first step in improving your emotional wellbeing and I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals. My highest priority is to offer empathy, guidance, and support, all while striving to create an inclusive space for all, including BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and neurodiverse individuals. My approach to therapy includes a mixture of approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Mindfulness to help you navigate issues such as anxiety/stress, grief, depression, and adjusting to life’s challenges. My approach is structured yet adaptable, always tailored to your unique lived experience. I also hold a certification in Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) which allows me to help you with acute stress and critical life events. In our first session, you can expect a calm, welcoming space where we will discuss what brings you to therapy. I’ll ask thoughtful questions to better understand your experiences and together, we can work towards identifying goals that are important to you. My hope is to create a supportive environment so you can leave that first session feeling heard and with a sense of direction. I currently accept the below insurances and am available for private pay. Please visit my website for the most up to date information. You can also email me for a brief consultation. Thank you!

Licensed Professional Counselor
Houston, TX

Welcome! I work with people who may be struggling with a variety of different challenges from grieving the loss of a pet, struggling with thoughts of the future in a world that seems to be falling apart, and people struggling with gender identity and sexual orientation. I offer an LGBTQ and neurodivergent-affirming environment. While I pull from gold standard techniques such as EMDR, Brainspotting, ACT, DBT, and CBT-I to address a variety of issues and symptoms, I take a collaborative approach to tailor our work together to best fit your needs. I have over ten years of experience in the mental health field both as a researcher and as a psychotherapist. The first five years of my career was spent at the Montrose Center in Houston, Texas where I worked with the LGBTQ community as a psychotherapist and a case manager. This valuable experience urged me to take my career further by going into private practice where I am honored to work with members of the LGBTQ community as well as those outside it.

Psychiatrist
Houston, TX

Victoria Duru is a board-certified nurse practitioner in psychiatry and family medicine who started her career as a young staff nurse over 15 years ago and worked her way up. She received her Master’s of Science in Nursing from Walden University in Minnesota, Minneapolis. After graduating she worked at a Correctional facility in Houston, TX. Her experience demonstrated the gap between medical and psychiatric care, and how the mind/body connection is often overlooked. The gap in care motivated Victoria to pursue a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner certificate at the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley so that she can develop a practice that integrates medicine and mental health for the most effective treatment.

Seeking support for yourself or your child(ren) takes courage so let me be the first to congratulate you on taking this first step. I am here to assist you in navigating the many changes and challenges that we are sometimes faced with in this life. In assisting you on your journey, I take a Cognitive Behavioral approach which seeks to target your thoughts, behaviors and feelings. In addition to CBT, I also incorporate solution-focused techniques to aid you in achieving your therapeutic goals. In the same way we seek a doctor for medical needs and a dentist for all things teeth related, seeking support from a mental health clinician is simply a way to meet your mental health needs. My purpose is to be the support you need.
