My approach to therapy

Her passion for mental health began early in her career as a home health aide, supporting children and adolescents with behavioral and autism-related challenges. This experience sparked her deep interest in ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia, shaping her commitment to delivering personalized, evidence-based care.

What you can expect from me

Originally from Sandusky, Ohio, Iyeshia now calls Houston home. Outside of her practice, she enjoys SolidCore, strength training, exploring new restaurants, and traveling the world with her friends.
