I specialize in LGBTQ+ affirming care, trauma recovery, chronic illness, and women’s mental health, including perinatal care. My particular focus is on neurodivergent individuals, including those who were identified later in life or came to that understanding on their own.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands maternal mental health

Headway helps you find expert-guided support for every stage of motherhood — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Houston

Finding the right postpartum therapist in Houston starts with identifying the type of support you need. Perinatal mental health providers specialize in concerns that arise during pregnancy and after birth — including postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and adjusting to life as a new parent. Look for a licensed provider such as an LPC, LCSW, psychologist, or psychiatrist with experience in perinatal care. Some providers hold a Perinatal Mental Health Certification (PMH-C), which indicates specialized training in this area.

Houston is home to a large and diverse network of mental health providers, which means you have options — but it can also make the search feel overwhelming. Consider what matters most: whether you prefer virtual or in-person sessions, a provider who shares your background or speaks your language, or someone with experience in a specific area like birth trauma or medication management. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match.

Therapy in Houston can be expensive without insurance, but affordable options exist when you use in-network coverage. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a postpartum therapist who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
