I am a family and marriage counselor currently licensed in Texas. I have over 40 years of experience working as a psychotherapists and life coach. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, sexual issues, substance abuse issues and general life conflicts.

My name is Minnette Adderly, I am a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner licensed to provide high-quality psychiatric care to individuals, couples, and families. With over 20 years of healthcare experience—including 10 combined years in inpatient psychiatric stabilization, crisis services, and dual-diagnosis treatment—I bring strong clinical expertise and a deep commitment to the clients I serve.

If you're struggling with addiction, carrying the weight of complex trauma, or trying to cope while managing a chronic health condition, I want you to know there's a way forward — and you don't have to walk it alone. I'm a Certified Drug and Alcohol Counselor (CADC) with over 16 years of experience across private practice, residential substance abuse treatment, medical social work, and the non-profit world. I've sat with people in their hardest, most overwhelming moments, and I bring that same steady, non-judgmental presence to every session.

Much of my work centers on substance use and recovery, complex trauma, and the emotional toll of chronic medical conditions. Whether you're in the thick of a crisis or finally ready to address something you've carried for years, I'll meet you exactly where you are — with compassion, real tools, and zero judgment.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Master’s Level Certified Addiction Professional (MCAP) with a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from Nova Southeastern University.

With nearly two decades of experience, I have dedicated my career to helping individuals navigate the challenges of mental health, substance use, trauma, and life transitions. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Addiction Professional, and Ph.D.-level clinician, I bring both clinical expertise and genuine compassion to every session.

I believe people are more than their diagnosis, addiction, or current struggle. My goal is to create a space where you feel respected, understood, and supported as we work together toward meaningful change and lasting recovery.

Very empathic, resilient, welcoming and non judgmental.

You may have learned to navigate spaces where parts of you didn’t feel fully seen or accepted. Over time, those experiences can shape how you see yourself.

What is the story you tell yourself? What messages have you taken in from others—and from the world around you? How have those shaped the way you see yourself?

For many people, these stories are formed in spaces where parts of them felt unseen, misunderstood, or not fully accepted. Over time, this can lead to cycles of self-doubt, shame, or feeling like you have to keep proving your worth.

With over forty-five years of experience, I have had the privilege of working with a wide range of people - from young adults navigating early adulthood to older individuals managing major life transitions. I work with clients across a broad spectrum of concerns, including relationship issues, affective disorders, addiction, work-life balance, vocational challenges, and the many complex problems that simply come with being human. My background includes extensive continuing education across all of these areas, and I bring both deep knowledge and genuine enthusiasm to every session. I am outgoing, active, and engaging - I show up fully, and I expect us to do real work together.

As a graduate of the University of Southern California and an active-duty Navy Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals and families around the world including children, teens, spouses, GS employees, retirees, and active-duty service members.

I am a dual board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-BC) and Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with over 15 years of healthcare experience caring for children, adolescents, adults, and older adults. I earned my BSN from Nova Southeastern University, MSN-FNP from the University of South Alabama, Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) from the University of Florida, and Post-Master's PMHNP certificate from Wilkes University.

My background includes intensive care, family medicine, urgent care, oncology, thoracic surgery, correctional healthcare, and outpatient psychiatry. This diverse experience allows me to understand the connection between physical and mental health while providing compassionate, evidence-based care.

I also work with individuals experiencing emotional dysregulation, caregiver stress, and co-occurring mental health conditions.

My approach is collaborative, holistic, and individualized. I combine medication management with evidence-based therapy techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), supportive therapy, motivational interviewing, solution-focused therapy, mindfulness, psychoeducation, and strengths-based interventions. I believe every person deserves to feel heard, respected, and empowered throughout their journey.

I strive to create a safe, supportive, and judgment-free environment where you can openly discuss your concerns and work toward meaningful, lasting change.
