Therapists in Houston, TX

Life can be wonderful, but often comes with many surprisingly hard twists and turns (e.g., marriage, divorce, adolescence, relocating, mid-life, crises and loss). Changes in health and chronic medical issues can be among the most difficult as they can be lasting, painful, and with serious consequences. Sometimes you need someone trustworthy, knowledgable and caring to walk you through some of the hardest times and I would be honored to do so.

I am an experienced clinical psychologist with extensive training in providing trauma-informed and evidence-based assessment, conceptualization and treatment for individuals and families. With training and interest in trauma, loss and bereavement, problematic personality, relational (e.g., marital discord) and behavioral patterns (e.g., coping using substances, disordered eating), and suicide prevention, I have a specific passion to provide services for adults, including emerging adults, couples, and families.

If there is a sense of hopelessness surrounding you about what has passed amidst the fear of what is yet to be; if you find yourself stuck as these challenges show up in your relationships, lingering grief, or a sense of powerlessness - know that you don't have to go through this alone. In this space, we can meet. My training has prepared me to provide tailored counseling to individuals, couples, and children navigate challenges of marriage, divorce, and illness or loss of loved ones. Along with private practice, I have worked at behavioral hospitals helping clients struggling with challenges of depression, anxiety, and trauma.

Therapy is a journey. I feel privileged to join my clients in working towards improving their lives. I have worked in private practice since 2006, providing family/couple, individual, and group therapy services. I work with clients of diverse ethnicities, ages, and genders. My therapeutic approach is collaborative and solution-focused, family therapy-based, culturally sensitive, and client-centered. If faith is important to you, I'm happy to work with that as a resource for hope and healing.

My approach for therapy is to provide my clients with a warm, empathetic space to be vulnerable. I understand how hard it is to share your story which is why I’m here to listen! It is during moments of overwhelming stress that we need the most compassion. I want you to know that you're not alone. Your story is meaningful to me, and I am here to assist you in dealing with tough life circumstances by helping you rediscover your strength, heal past wounds, and enhance your relationships promoting positive self-growth. I specialize in helping clients suffering from severe depression, anxiety, as well as healing from trauma.

Therapy starts with understanding a person and seeing the world from that person's eyes.

Are you a teen or young adult who overthinks, worries too much, has difficulty focusing because of stress, or fears you're falling behind? Do college, choosing a career path, managing relationships or life transitions feel overwhelming? The pressure to be attractive, fit in, feel understood, earn top grades, and get into the best schools are hard on teens. Choosing a career path, interviewing, living on your own or supporting yourself, or making big relationship decisions can feel scary as a young adult. You don’t have to go this alone. I provide individual counseling and couples counseling for adults, adolescents, and children.

It often feels like your past is a relentless companion, never truly letting go. Even in moments of happiness, there's this looming darkness that follows you, casting a shadow over everything you try to embrace. Part of you knows you need to confront wounds from the past, untangle its' grip, and finally heal. But you are terrified of what might surface if you do, scared to open the floodgates to that pain. You have carried it for so long, and even though it's not ideal, it's familiar. After all, you have reached the point where you can't ignore those unresolved issues. It's clear something needs to change in your life.

I am a relationship counselor who specializes in working with high-conflict couples. We believe that our behavior patterns in relationships are often shaped by experiences from childhood. For instance, a couple that is excited to get married may find themselves constantly arguing and feeling rejected. I can help track the cycle of conflict (Emotional Family Therapy by Sue Johnson) connecting/contrasting the secondary and primary emotions and noting the attachment impact of the couple.

"There are many ways of getting strong, sometimes talking is the best way..." - Andre Agassi ....Individuals from all walks of life, ethnicities, and backgrounds experience feelings of depression, anxiety, frustration, or hopelessness. We sometimes find ourselves unable to communicate the way we would like to or lack the motivation to even try.

My name is Sabah Ali. I am a licensed professional counselor and have been practicing therapy since 2014. I have high levels of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and the elderly facing Anxiety, Depression, Relationship Issues, Stress, and Bipolar Disorder. My therapeutic approaches are Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Solution Focused Brief (SFBT), Client-Centered Therapy, Couples Therapy, and Supportive Therapy. I genuinely believe that the obstacles of your past can become the gateways that lead to new beginnings.

We believe in the resilience of people and the human capacity to overcome even the most difficult of circumstances. We each have the ability to tap-in to our inner power to heal, and therapy can offer an ideal environment for transformation to happen. In therapy, the client is always the most powerful instrument for change. Therapy is not fixing problems or giving advice, it's walking with people in their journey and bearing witness to their deepest truth. Providing a securely attached relationship, the therapeutic bond offers a healthy templet for future relationships and can transform how I see ourselves, others, and the world.

I am incredibly fortunate to have my dream job and feel a sense of fulfillment and pride in my work everyday. I know for many of us we do not have that opportunity and have numerous challenges that prevent us from feeling fulfillment, happiness or stability, which can cause immense distress that may be due to anxiety, depression, panic, and feeling lost in general among other complex emotions. Counseling can help give you clarity, and create and work towards goals that lead to happiness and optimism about life overall, you just have to reach out.

My approach is rooted in empowerment, as I deeply believe in collaborating with my clients and listening attentively to their aspirations for therapy. My services encompass a wide spectrum, encompassing individual, couples, and family therapy. I welcome clients of all ages, backgrounds, and ethnicities, from children as young adults to elders. Creating a safe, nurturing environment is at the core of my practice. I strive to cultivate a space free from judgment, where clients feel comfortable exploring their innermost thoughts and emotions.

You may have a goal of living a meaningful life in all its richness and seeking help with interpersonal or mental health symptom related concerns? Depression, anxiety, history of trauma? Are you, your family or relations journeying through life transitions or in need of support related to medical-health concerns? There are times in life when it feels like you are barely keeping your head above water. Not a fun feeling! More importantly, I work with compassion, empathy, and am non-judgmental, while creating a safe space for you to explore and understand.
