My passion is assisting clients gain self-acceptance, sustain intimate relationships and regain confidence. There is a special place in my heart for adolescents, specifically in the LGBTQ community. I am also passionate about people finding love. I have created a dating course that has been tested and proven affective with men and women .

Struggling to show up in a world that tells you “you’re too much” and to "stop being so sensitive"? Having thoughts that no one will ever get you because you’re constantly told to “just get over it”? If you don't fit into the mold in a climate hostile towards difference, this creates debilitating stress and anxiety. The need to feel safe, seen, and heard IS REAL. You want to show up real AF, comfortable in your own skin and surrounded by people who support and value your unique gifts. But how do you stand up to all of this toxic energy?

As lead therapist at Houston Therapy for Girls, I have extensive experience working with girls age 7-25 and their families, and my goal is to create an accepting environment in which girls and young women can gain self-acceptance and learn skills to help them negotiate some of life's most challenging years. I have ten years post-Master’s experience working with clients with four of those years spent working as a counselor at an all-girls private school. Having both attended and worked at all-girls schools, I have experienced first-hand the pressures and challenges girls face developing a sense of self in today's world.

I believe that we make choices and express emotions based on childhood experiences whether negative or positive. These choices develop into patterns and mold us into who we are today. To make changes in the areas that are currently causing pain and discomfort, we must address these past experiences using a more holistic approach that integrates psychology with spirituality. This approach will move us forward to becoming the men and women God created us to be. This has been a personal journey which has placed me in a position to encourage and assist others in reaching their full potential.

In a safe and supportive atmosphere I strive to listen to the needs of each of my clients. I use a variety of methods and techniques to meet the needs of each client. My goal is to help clients achieve success in their lives by providing tools for coping with their current situations.

Grab a cup of coffee and let’s chat. Are you ready to change your life? I mean really ready to feel different, think different, and act different. If the old way isn’t working then it’s time to be different. Are you stuck in a rut with no way out? Lucky for you I specialize in ruts! Let’s look at the different ways I can help you. For Parents of challenging children, I have coaching offerings to help you change the dynamics in your house from purgatory to peace. For Single women , I have a therapy program that allows you to explore your past and change your future relationships.

Life can have its challenges. Some days you are feeling great, then others you don’t know how you made it through. You may be working long hours, in school, raising a family, navigating the career jungle for the first time, or trying to balance a work/life balance. It can be difficult living in a world that does not understand you. You are not alone. In today’s climate, it is essential to have someone that understands what we are going through. I am here to lend a non-judgmental ear for you to share your thoughts and feelings.

Therapy should be a safe place where you can open up and speak freely and honestly. My goal is to provide you with the best mental health care possible in a courteous and efficient manner. I understand your need for confidentiality, trust and respect. My therapeutic approach is solution focused and cognitive behavior therapy. I work extensively with women issues, depression (including postpartum depression), anxiety, infertility, miscarriage and self-esteem. I provide help for marriage counseling and individuals with relationship problems.

Men and women continue to fall to the limiting scripts, schemas, mistaken beliefs, and toxic relationship behaviors surrounding relationships and intimacy. This has developed barriers to the gift of intimacy, attachment and a fulfilling, loving relationship. Intimacy is the ability accept and love your inner most self unconditionally, and the extent to then fully share oneself with another human being- fully. Therapy is about learning to love oneself. I offer a new level of emotional and cognitive wellness to individuals and couples.

Kira Dionne Wellness welcomes men, women and millennials who are experiencing immense stress, unsure about how to surpass mental barriers and/or struggling with low self-esteem, addiction, anger, and self-worth. Kira Dionne offers life and relationship coaching, addictions, and anger management counseling and groups that's designed to focus solely on your particular need by personalizing a plan to assist you in meeting your goals.

Psychotherapy can be a life changing experience. The first step of the process is finding a therapist with whom you feel comfortable sharing your world. I would like to help you explore your unique situation to discover whether I might be that therapist for you. Together, we will work to understand how your mind works and how to use this understanding to achieve a sense of contentment with your life. I utilize an integrative approach to treatment, pulling from psychodynamic, dialectical behavioral (DBT), mentalizing, and interpersonal theories to address the needs of my clients.

NOT currently ACCEPTing NEW clients! You’re finding yourself stuck in a stressful work/life burnout cycle OR being the one who keeps the world spinning for everyone else. Guys...is this you? Your boss is always on your back for something, your wife wants more engagement from you (you totally MISS time with her), you're expected to be SuperDad all weekend, and you are wiped OUT? Many guys in this boat feel pissed off all...The...TIME. That’s no way to live. And it's holding you back! You need a smart, tough, and funny pro like me to kick you outta that cycle and put you back in charge of your life.

I’m a psychologist who provides therapy to distressed women and couples. My individual counseling can help if you’re struggling with depression (including postpartum depression and postpartum anxiety), a recent loss such as a miscarriage, infertility, and other pregnancy-related concerns. I also help women who are unhappy with their relationships and are having difficulties balancing their profession, and their family life.

Do you trust and accept who you are right now? Are you living with symptoms of anxiety and/or ADHD that prevent you from enjoying the life you deserve? Or maybe you're tired of watching others complete tasks that seem to take you forever to accomplish? There is no right or wrong answer, there’s only a journey. Part of your journey involves connecting with the best therapist for you to help move you from a place of overwhelm to a place of balance, confidence and sustainability.

When human beings experience trauma or severe stressors, it is not uncommon for their lives to unravel. My great passion is bringing healing to people who have been through traumatic/stressful experiences, depression, or anxiety. I wish to help clients of all ages, including children, families, men, and women to find perceptions about themselves and strengthen their relationships so they can know themselves and feel whole and safe.

I am gifted with the desire to assist in risk assessments and Chaperone training. I work with families with children for sexual inappropriate behaviors and abuse. I have clinicians with passion like me for changing the world-one family at a time. We work with trauma both specific and ambiguous. We DON'T rewrite a client's Life-story, We believe clients have power not yet realized. We remain curiously aware, question, offer potential insight and skills for personal change. HTWC is the only Houston office certified for the MEGA age 4-19.99 years/ male/ female sexual improprieties, sexual/reactive, or sexual/abusive.

I know you want to own your abilities, achievements, and experience. In order to do that, you need to feel qualified in who you are. The problem is, you overcompensate for everything, which leaves you feeling burned out. You shouldn’t have to feel like you're constantly proving yourself...to yourself. I understand how overwhelming it feels to demand perfectionism from yourself every day. Which is why over the last 10 years, I've helped hundreds of women go from feeling undeserving, to feeling worthy of every good thing that comes to them. I don't accept insurance. I only provide therapy for TX residents via online therapy.
