Hi, my name is Paris Patton and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with experience working in inpatient, outpatient, and community settings. I specialize in supporting children, adolescents, and young adults with challenges related to anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, and self-esteem.

So much of my work is rooted in one question: what happens when we stop trusting ourselves? For me, that question became very personal.

After the birth of my first child, I found myself carrying not only physical pain but a deep sense of disconnection. I was listening to every voice but my own — questioning my body, my instincts, my inner wisdom. It was disorienting in a way I hadn't expected.

With my second child, something shifted. The experience felt empowering, attuned, and deeply mine. I listened inward. I trusted my body. And I witnessed firsthand just how intelligent and wise the body truly is when we feel safe enough to connect with it.

That journey brought me back to something foundational — the body knows. Our minds and bodies are constantly communicating with us. But life has a way of teaching us to override those signals. Trauma, stress, cultural conditioning, the pressure to hold it all together — they all teach us to ignore our inner knowing. Healing, I believe, is often about learning to listen again. It's a homecoming.

Hello! I am Peace Popoola, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a passion for helping individuals and families navigate life's challenges. I am also certified as a Perinatal Therapist (PMH-C). You don't have to be "fine" all the time. Whether you are struggling mood changes, relationship challenges or perinatal grief/loss, I provide a judgement-free space to release emotions and take a break from chaos.

Successful therapy begins by meeting the client where they’re at. As a clinical therapist with a background in social work, I believe therapy should be client-centered with a feeling of safety and trust. I pull techniques from various well-known therapies that are unique to the client's needs, acting as a guide, partnering with the client to find the best path to success. Some may need only one or two sessions, while others more. Regardless, this is a journey that we can figure out together.

Hi, I’m Maddie! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a specialization in trauma. I have spent most of my professional time working with children and adolescents so I know the vast childhood experiences anyone coming into therapy may bring.

I want you to find safety in our relationship to explore what has happened to you and who you want to become from that experience.
