Family Therapy in Houston, TX

Is your relationship/marriage on the verge of driving you crazy? Do you say one thing but they often hear something else? Or, do you feel trapped by the pain of your past and need help getting over childhood hurts? There is hope! Whatever the problem or difficulty, therapy can help so that you can begin to live the life you were born to live. I am a Marriage & Family Therapist Associate and I want to help you be the best you.

I believe that individuals are unique; each possessing their OWN worldview, which, ultimately, would make you the expert of your own life. Sometimes in life, we need assistance in our journey towards the realization and fulfillment of our own talents and potentials: self-actualization. I assist my clients by enabling them to move towards openness, developing a greater trust in themselves, building the willingness to process, and increase self-realization. All while providing a non-judgmental environment where your personal life experiences are heard, and you are valued as the unique human being that you are.

Life was meant to challenge us, but when those challenges become more than we can handle, who can we turn to for that extra support or even just a listening ear? Challenges can come in any form, whether it be in your marriage, from family conflict, or parenting struggles, I make it my goal to walk alongside you in whatever ways you need.

Life is a beautiful gift and can be magnificent, however, it can also be challenging and difficult to navigate. For some, it brings stress, depression, anxiety, or trauma, etc. Trying to balance unhealthy thoughts, feelings, or behaviors with family , work, and school can quickly feel overwhelming. Therapy provides a safe and nurturing environment where a client can increase self-awareness and receive validation. I work with individuals, couples, and families processing difficulties, learning effective coping skills, and helping them grow and heal to improve their emotional health and well-being.

Hello, My name is Paul Bailey and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Arkansas and Texas. I graduated from Henderson State University with a Bachelors in Psychology and a Masters in Mental Health Counseling. I have been a licensed therapist for 9 years which I have worked in outpatient and inpatient settings. I have experience working with the following issues: anxiety, anger, depression, bipolar, psychosis, family issues, and behavioral issues.

Let's face it. We all experience situations and circumstances in our lives that challenge and inhibit us from fully thriving. I am passionate in coming alongside those who are hurting and those who desire a fresh, objective perspective to get through the stuck areas of their life. My approach is simple... meet people where they are, listen to them and approach their issue with well-researched treatment modalities.

As a first-generation immigrant Muslim woman, I am so proud to offer representation to those who are seeking to improve their mental health! I was raised as the eldest daughter in an immigrant family dynamic and have an extensive understanding of these family systems and how they affect individuals of different birth orders. I have worked with clients of a variety of age ranges, sexual orientations, and cultural backgrounds and pride myself on multicultural awareness and consideration. I strive to help you achieve steps towards your ideal self by building a functional toolbox with tools you can reach for along the way.

As an experienced psychologist, my goal is to help you achieve your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't undo difficult circumstances of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges as you create a better future. Psychotherapy is a collaborative process and together we will discover the perceptions or behaviors that may be holding you back and help you create more successful life habits. We may employ cognitive-behavioral, somatic, supportive and other approaches tailored to your specific needs in order to facilitate your growth toward a more positive future.

I work with children, teens, adults, and families struggling to handle the obstacles associated with ADHD, anxiety, OCD, depression, Autism, and other behaviors or life challenges. To meet the needs of my young clients, I incorporate several play-based modalities into my practice including Theraplay (parent & child), child-centered play therapy, and cognitive behavioral play therapy. With teens and adults, we accomplish much of the same work through cognitive behavioral talk therapy. For all of my clients under 18, I require regular parent and guardian meetings as a way to take a family systems approach in my care.

I am a licensed, board certified clinical psychologist and marriage and family therapist . In addition to my clinical practice with adults, couples and families, I am a professor in a doctoral level clinical psychology program.

Based on a thorough understanding of the interplay between thoughts, feelings and actions. The people I work with learn to replace self-defeating strategies with constructive alternatives.

No one is an island unto themselves, nor should anyone feel as if they must work their way through life alone.

We are a group of bilingual therapist, among the issues that we explore are: relations, career, personal challenges, trauma, family dynamics and sex issues; also, gender infinity issues, power and control issues, inequality, intimacy, sexual problems, conflict and self-awareness. We provide our clients with a friendly and respectful environment that facilitates exploration and the possibility of seeing challenges from a different angle or perspective, with deep respect, an interested presence, and a curious attitude about our client's viewpoint. We believe in the power of healthy relationships. Relationships can be transformed if we are ready to re-invent ourselves.

I am a Ph.D. Clinical Psychologist in the Heights for 20+ years, trained in cognitive-behavioral & psycho-dynamic approaches. If a deeper understanding of a problem is desired, a psycho-dynamic approach focuses on understanding past family and relationships and patterns allowing for self-growth. In practical issues of changing behavior and/or learning a new approach, a cognitive behavioral approach assesses desired behavior changes, obstacles and strengths to obtain goals. In both approaches, I ask questions in a safe and cooperative style that allows for new perspectives and growth. This is especially helpful in couples therapy.
