I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master of Science in Clinical Rehabilitation Counseling. With over nine years of experience, I have had the privilege of working with clients from diverse backgrounds, helping them navigate challenges such as depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, self-esteem issues, LGBTQ+ concerns, and relationship difficulties.
Hi! My name is Keyonda Dean, but my friends call me Keyandra. I'm really glad you're here. You may have been feeling low, unmotivated, or disconnected for a while now. Maybe you have lost interest in things that used to matter, or you wake up already exhausted. Perhaps you have been running on empty for so long that it's starting to feel normal. Some days, it's hard to explain what is wrong, but you are still showing up, still getting through your to-do list. But something feels off. It's not just "stress," and you aren't being dramatic. What you are feeling is real, and you deserve support that actually helps. I work with patients across a wide range of mental health experiences - whether you are dealing with anxiety and depression, mood disorder, ADHD, or navigating something that feels new and hard to name
I’m a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with a background in nursing across a range of mental health settings, including outpatient care and higher-acuity environments. My training has focused on assessing, diagnosing, and treating conditions such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma-related disorders, and substance use, using both medication management and psychotherapy. I completed advanced graduate education in psychiatric-mental health nursing, which prepared me to provide holistic, evidence-based care across the lifespan and to collaborate closely with other members of the treatment team.
I'm Melissa Avitia, a bilingual Licensed Professional Counselor based in Texas. I specialize in working with adolescents, adults, and families, using evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, and mindfulness to help clients navigate anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and school-related challenges. I graduated from the University of Texas-Pan American, and I'm passionate about creating a compassionate, empowering space where clients can build resilience and restore balance in their lives.
I believe everyone can improve their quality of life
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a Certified Sex Therapist who works primarily with individual adults that are navigating anxiety, life transitions and recurring relationship or intimacy patterns that no longer serve them. You may be feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself or others. For many of my clients, this looks like constant overthinking, emotional burnout, difficulty with closeness or desire, or feeling unsure of who you are or what you need.
