Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Katy, TX covered by Aetna

Hi, I’m Madeleine Vaughters, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas and the owner of Shadow and Sun Counseling. I specialize in trauma-focused therapy and strive to create a warm, compassionate space where you feel seen, heard, and supported. My goal is to meet you where you are and walk alongside you as you move toward healing and growth.

Hi, I’m a licensed professional counselor and the founder of Transformed Therapy in Houston, TX. Since 2008, I’ve been walking alongside individuals, and families as they navigate anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, spiritual concerns, and major life transitions. While I work with men and women, as well as children and teens, a large part of my work is focused on helping men who are facing internal battles—feeling stuck, burned out, disconnected, or unsure of how to lead well in their families, careers, and personal lives.

Whether you're carrying stress silently, dealing with anger or shame, questioning your purpose, or struggling to be the individual you want to be, I provide a place where you can be honest, real, and heard. My approach is practical, faith-centered, and grounded in personal accountability, growth, and grace.

Before launching Transformed Therapy, I served as Director at Memorial Christian Counseling Center and CEO at Integrative Mental Health Solutions, leading crisis response teams across Houston. I also spent 11 years in full-time ministry as a youth and outreach minister, which deeply shaped my commitment to soul care and spiritual restoration.

I hold a Master of Education in Counseling from the University of North Texas and a BA in Philosophy from UT Arlington. When I’m not in session, I’m spending time outdoors with my wife and our five kids—camping, fishing, gardening, or simply enjoying God's creation.

If you're ready to step into change—whether it’s for your mental health, your marriage, your faith, or your identity—I’d be honored to walk with you.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with teens, adults, and children ages 7 and older navigating anxiety, trauma, and relationship challenges. My approach is warm, collaborative, and focused on helping you feel understood and supported. I draw from person-centered therapy, attachment work, mindfulness, and I’m trained in EMDR to help process past experiences. I especially enjoy working with clients who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected.

I have plenty of life experience dealing with most issues and over 30 years of experience in pastoral and faith based counseling. I am a state licensed therapist with a doctorate in clinical psychology. I have been happily married for 35 years, I have raised 4 children, and I’ve owned various small businesses.

It is no longer acceptable to suffer in silence. Regardless of your age, your friends, your family and what your peers may say, asking for help takes a lot more courage than suffering in silence. There is no shame in taking control of your life and making the courageous decision to want and expect more joy and peace in your life. I believe in empowering individuals to take inventory and control of their lives. Things can always be better and it is up to you to determine when, where and what that looks like. It is my joy and responsibility to help bring about the ‘how.'

I am passionate about helping adolescents, individuals, couples and families find their inner strengths to bring about the change they want in their lives through a wide variety of evidence-based theories such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Reality Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and others.

The therapeutic process is an amazing journey of personal growth and insight. You are the captain of your ship. The beginning of your new journey can start today.
