Macheda Larosiliere

Therapist

Virtual • Texas


Hi, I’m Macheda, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I work with adults navigating anxiety, stress, grief, relationship challenges, and life transitions that can leave you feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or uncertain about what comes next. Many of my clients are used to being strong for others but privately feel stretched thin, disconnected from themselves, or unsure how to keep carrying everything they’ve been holding. Therapy can be a space to pause, make sense of what you’re experiencing, and begin moving forward with greater clarity and self-understanding.

Through my experience in healthcare and individual settings, I’ve supported people and families during some of life’s most challenging and vulnerable moments. As an immigrant, I also understand how culture, identity, family expectations, and lived experiences can shape the way we see ourselves, relate to others, and navigate change. I recognize that emotional struggles do not happen in isolation, and I take care to understand the full context of your experiences rather than focusing only on symptoms.

My ideal clients are seeking deeper connections but feeling held back by intimacy issues, relationship patterns, anxiety, depression, or trauma. You might feel disconnected from your partner, overwhelmed by intrusive thoughts, or stuck in cycles that no longer serves you. In our work together, you don't have to hide any part of who you are. I provide a grounded, entirely non-judgmental space centered on authentic human connection. Together, we explore what is keeping you stuck and build practical, compassionate paths toward relational understanding, emotional stability, and personal healing.

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.
