Therapists in Spring, TX

Raise your hand if you are starting a new chapter, and it isn't one you necessarily chose for yourself. You might be feeling all the feels. Are you worried? Scared? Frustrated? Did you have your life planned out and this wasn't part of the plan? Now what? Where do you go from here? Especially because "here" is already happening. Does life feel like a series of unfortunate events and then you die?

How many times have you thought about going to counseling only to say to yourself"I'll be fine, there's nothing wrong with me, this will pass"? Me too, until it was obvious I wasn't fine, there was something wrong and it wasn't going to pass. It is a scary proposition to sit down with a complete stranger and tell them your innermost thoughts and emotions. I believe that most of us know where we are and where we want to be, but sometimes understanding what got us where we are and how we are going to get where we want to be are not so clear. I can help you get where you want to be. It isn't always easy, but it is worth it.

Do you struggle in your relationship, have problems communicating, fighting all the time and feel disconnected and disheartened? I want you to know - help is available and most relationships can be saved. If you are willing to do the work, change will happen. Sometimes deeper work is needed but other times just a few little changes can lead to a big shift. Life can be a struggle, but you don't need to suffer. Let me help you.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 13 years of experience. I have worked with adults, families, and groups. I have worked with clients who have issues with substance abuse, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, crisis intervention, prevention, mood disorders, and many more. Since graduating from Webster University with a Masters in Professional Mental Health Counseling, I have become very passionate about my career and helping others.

Life in today’s world can be very challenging, even for the most resourceful people. There may be times where we struggle, feel extremely overwhelmed, and may not know where to go or what to do. I strive to provide a client centered experience when working with my clients. I was drawn to therapy because I’ve always enjoyed helping people live their lives to the fullest. Whether it is finding your way through a new path in life or working through a traumatic event, change can be healing. It can be hard to work through these issues, but we will collaborate to find the right therapy approach to fit your needs.

My passion is treating clients who have endured trauma. I'm trained in EMDR. I combine EMDR with narrative therapy to help clients resolve and reprocess the traumatic event. I love working with clients who suffer from depression, bipolar, and personality disorders. I also work with couples and families who are in crisis. I am also endorsed by the American Psychotherapy Association as a Board Certified Professional Counselor.

I've had the privilege of working in a variety of settings, with individuals, couples, and families experiencing different challenges. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you, and to walk together to heal, to unlock your potential, and to achieve your goals. Being from a different country has become a strength in my practice to naturally be culturally sensitive in my sessions and to have more meaningful interactions with my clients of different backgrounds.

Trauma impacts our ability to foster and maintain relationships, as it often impacts us in the domains such as safety, esteem, trust, intimacy, and power & control. Resolving trauma through processing leads to your ability to live a more fulfilled life, which is my goal in therapy. I believe that we have the ability to choose how to resolve our own problems and can make our own decisions with the assistance of an empathetic facilitator. I also believe that self-awareness is key to developing purpose, direction, and motivation to change, and my approach will provide you with methods to solve problems utilizing your own strengths.

Are you a parent to an emotionally sensitive child? Are you “’walking on eggshells” to avoid conflicts at home? Does your teen seem out of control, impulsive, or destructive? DBT is a proven method for individuals with high emotional sensitivity and who are emotionally reactive. I offer DBT for individuals, parents, and teens through classes and therapy. We know that families heal better together, so parents are an active part of treatment. I can help you create calm instead of chaos. I am intensively trained in DBT and my practice is the only facility in North Houston offering an adherent DBT program.

NO EVENING APPOINTMENTS AVAILABLE. Have you been feeling anxious, depressed, or stuck? Are you experiencing some life changes and are struggling to cope? People come to therapy for many different reasons and I would love to work with you and help you move forward. We can work on adding to your toolbox so that you can overcome whatever challenges or changes come your way. I can guarantee a non-judgmental, safe space for us to speak openly about your concerns. We will use a variety of techniques including CBT, grounding, mindfulness, EMDR, and others to help you achieve your goals. I respond best/quickest to email.

I am a certified anxiety and trauma therapist (EMDR), and relationship expert (PhD. in marriage and family therapy and LCSW-S) with over 19 years of experience. I provide individual, couple, and family therapy. Many of my clients are seeking alternatives other than prescription medication for anxiety and depression. I am a practitioner of yoga and a herbalist. I'm not just EMDR "trained", but also certified with advanced hours in trauma.

I AM A WARRIOR! I AM A FIGHTER! I AM A CONQUEROR! I AM A SURVIVOR of SEXUAL ASSAULT, NARCISSISTIC ABUSE, and CANCER! My purpose in life is to help, assist, and advocate for survivors of child sexual abuse, rape, dating/domestic violence, and or cancer. I am determined to change the narrative of survivors. There are so many survivors that will not ask for help because it is a sign of weakness. We need to change that mindset. You have to make the first step, and when you do, I will be there to help you start and get through your healing and recovery journey.

Arguments with your partner are becoming more and more frequent. The honeymoon phase is long gone. And let's face it, your sex life has been mediocre at best. Even the thought of intimacy leads to anxiety and frustration. You find yourself questioning, "Is there something wrong with me?" ... "I should enjoy sex more." ... "I won't be able to please my partner". Physical intimacy has become a trigger for you, and avoidance has only added to the disconnect between you and your partner. The enthusiasm and luster for sex has faded.

Are you experiencing a range of emotions and feeling overwhelmed lately? Being in a state of confusion or being stuck can have a negative effect on your overall well being.

A counselor is a client's true ally. Someone who is actively invested in understanding your experiences, emotions, and behaviors can be a powerful tool in helping guide you toward change. The genuine connection between counselor and client can foster a better understanding of self and lead the client to take charge of their own life path. I am honored to be some small part of a client’s journey towards fulfillment. To me, each person's differences make the world a more vibrant place. I hope to celebrate what makes each client unique and also build a connection to what makes us all human.

Every second is a chance to turn your life around. Healing begins when you can safely express yourself. I believe that our relationship is a collaborative effort where together we can explore options and solutions. I can guide you in gaining insight to increase satisfaction and overall happiness and abundance in your life.

There is no 'right' way through this. There is just 'through.' Families are under tremendous pressure, even more so during these times. Children & teens spent too long without their social support and are now trying to achieve a new normal. This fear and anxiety of the unknown is similar to those experienced by adults recently. I can help adults, teens, & children work through the fear, anxiety, stress and trauma and help you build strong, healthy, resilient individuals and families. I enjoy working with all ages and specialize in family conflict, anxiety/depression, trauma, PTSD, Veterans, First Responders, & child specialties.

Damilola believes that the key components of a therapeutic alliance are respect, trust, and care. She serves as a guide and resource for her clients so that they can create a path suitable for their lifestyle.
