Great to meet you!

Hi! I'm Myanah Simmons, a Licensed Professional Counselor in TX. My background includes 4 years of experience working with individuals from diverse backgrounds, particularly women and people of color, who often carry unique stressors related to identity, culture, and societal expectations. I specialize in supporting clients who are experiencing:

  • Anxiety, stress, and burnout
  • Depression and mood concerns
  • Life transitions (career, relationships, motherhood, relocation, etc.)
  • Self-esteem, identity exploration, and personal growth
  • Trauma recovery and resilience building

My therapeutic style blends evidence-based practices (such as CBT, mindfulness, and strengths-based approaches) with warmth, empathy, and cultural sensitivity.

My approach to therapy

Therapy with me is a safe, affirming space where you don’t have to have it all figured out. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and focused on helping you feel understood while building the tools you need to navigate life’s challenges. I believe healing happens when we combine support with practical strategies, and when you have someone walking alongside you, not telling you who to be.

What you can expect from me

Above all, my goal is to meet you where you are and work with you to move toward the life you envision, whether that means finding peace, building resilience, or rediscovering joy.
