I love people; they're my favorite! ;)
For over 20 years, I've been in roles dedicated to supporting and serving others—work that continues to bring me deep joy. Over the past four years, I’ve focused specifically on therapy, walking alongside clients in their growth and healing journeys. I’d be honored to support you as you take this next step.
Hello, I am so glad you found my page today, that alone is a big step!
I am a seasoned Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, which means I can hold space for both parties in a session. I can remain calm and objective during times of high conflict and times of deep pain.
I work from the science of attachment and Emotionally Focused Therapy. I am also educated in couples trauma, neurodivergent couples, executive and entrepreneurial couples, and infidelity repair.
I believe mental health care works best when it feels like a partnership. I take time to listen, understand your experiences, and involve you in every step of your treatment plan. My goal is to create a space where you feel respected, heard, and supported while we work together to find the right tools and strategies to help you feel more stable, confident, and hopeful about the future.
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Houston, TX offering tele-health sessions across Texas. My path to mental health care began in the classroom — after years as a teacher, I noticed a growing disconnect in my students' emotional well-being and felt called to go deeper. That curiosity led me back to school, where I fell in love with mental health work. Today, I bring that same commitment to understanding and connection to my private practice, with a special focus on working with older adults. My dual background as an educator and mental health professional gives me a uniquely grounded, relatable style — I meet clients where they are and help them make sense of what they're carrying.
Hi, I'm Darrien. During my time as a therapist, I have seen the inter-workings of all levels of care, ranging from inpatient hospitalization to private practice. Most of the clients I have worked with have been in crisis, recovery, and acute stress which has prepared me for individual therapy in a way that allows me to hold space for all aspects of the client, their past, present, and their future. I specialize in helping adults experiencing addictions with co-occuring mood disorders.
Prisca Oketch, APRN, PMHNP-BC, with over 17 years of dedicated clinical experience, specializes in comprehensive mental health treatment. I combine evidence-based psychiatric care with compassionate listening, creating personalized treatment plans that address each patient's unique needs. I am accepting new patients of all ages, from children to adults, both for cash pay and insurance with same-day availability.
I am an ANCC board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. Prior to this, I spent eleven years in Intensive Critical Care Nursing. I treat a wide range of mental health conditions, including Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, Sleep Disorder, PTSD, ADHD and more. I provide care with a holistic approach, prioritizing overall wellbeing. Emotional, social, spiritual, familial, and cultural wellbeing are integral to the care i provide. My clients can expect attentive care that addresses their concerns and challenges, fostering a sense of being cared for, empowered, and hopeful for recovery.
I am a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with experience providing care in both inpatient and outpatient psychiatric settings. My clinical background allows me to support adults across a wide range of mental health needs—from acute stabilization to ongoing outpatient treatment—while maintaining a thoughtful, individualized approach to care.
I received my Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) degree from Texas State University, where I developed a strong foundation in evidence-based psychiatric assessment, diagnosis, and treatment. I am known for my warm, approachable style and for taking the time to truly listen, as I believe effective mental health care begins with trust, collaboration, and feeling understood.
I specialize in the evaluation and treatment of anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, and life stressors. My approach emphasizes conservative medication management, clear patient education, and shared decision-making so individuals feel informed and confident in their care.
In addition to my psychiatric training, I have a background in women’s health, which enhances my understanding of how physical health and life-stage factors can influence mental well-being. This perspective allows me to provide well-rounded, inclusive care for all adults.
Whether you are seeking psychiatric care for the first time, transitioning from inpatient treatment, or looking for ongoing outpatient support, my goal is to provide a supportive, non-judgmental environment where you feel respected, heard, and empowered throughout your care.
