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.

Hi, I’m Stephen. I work with people who feel overwhelmed, pulled in too many directions, or stuck in cycles of anxiety and depression. Many of my clients are juggling work, relationships, and health while struggling to be kind to themselves. Therapy with me is a space to slow down, regain balance, and reconnect with what matters most.

I believe you deserve support that meets you with compassion and respect. Seeking therapy can feel intimidating, but it’s also a powerful step toward healing and growth. My goal is to help you feel supported as you work through the habits, patterns, and stressors that have been holding you back.

You may be the person everyone counts on, but that does not mean you are built to carry everything alone

You deserve to feel human, not just functional. You can be competent, capable, and still need help. Those things aren't in conflict.

I work with busy professionals, exhausted parents, healthcare professionals, and LGBTQ+ individuals, who look "fine" but feel lonely, resentful, or stuck in survival mode. You want life to work without running on stress and guilt. Together we'll identify what's draining you and build practical boundaries, routines, and skills that calm your nervous system, protect your energy, and make daily life feel manageable and yours again.

You can verify your insurance in minutes and view my real-time availability directly through Headway — making it simple to get started.

Monica McKee

Therapist

Virtual • Weatherford, TX


Hi! My name is Monica McKee. I’m a passionate LMFT dedicated to helping couples, individuals, and first responder families navigate life’s challenges, heal from past wounds, and strengthen their relationships. Whether you're navigating relationship challenges, working through trauma, or seeking greater self-understanding, I’m here to walk alongside you with compassion and care.

I’ve been married for 25 years and understand that relationships can bring both joy and struggle. This personal experience, combined with my clinical training, allows me to approach couples work with empathy and practical insight. As the spouse of a first responder, I also have a deep appreciation for the unique stressors first responder families face and am honored to support them in therapy. I speak conversational Spanish and enjoy working with clients from diverse backgrounds.

I specialize in helping couples and families reconnect and heal through an attachment-based approach, exploring how early relationships influence the ways we love, trust, and communicate. I’m trained in EMDR and I'm a Gottman Method Couples Level 2 practitioner, an evidence-based approach that helps couples improve communication, deepen emotional connection, and rebuild trust.

I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology, with an emphasis in Clinical Psychology from Pennsylvania State University in 2010, and my Master’s Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Abilene Christian University in 2023, with a focus on trauma.

Find the right couples therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Pasadena, TX

Finding couples therapists in Pasadena starts with knowing what you and your partner want to work on. Couples therapy may focus on communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life transitions, or parenting disagreements. Since not all therapists have training in couples work, look for a licensed marriage and family therapist, or a therapist who lists couples-focused approaches like the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy in their bio.

In a smaller market like Pasadena, local couples therapy options may be more limited than in nearby Houston, so virtual appointments can help expand your search. It also helps to choose a therapist whose schedule works for both partners, whether you need daytime, evening, or virtual availability. Before booking, read each therapist’s profile for details on session structure, communication style, and whether they offer a brief initial consultation to help you assess fit together.

Couples therapy in Pasadena can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and Headway helps you check coverage before you book. You can compare therapists who are accepting new patients, review estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
