Grief counselors and therapists in Pasadena, TX

Hi! My name is Schavonda. I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) working virtually with Texas clients. I have 5 years of experience in private practice and over 17 years in an educational setting.

When one door closes it can make you feel as if life has shut you out. I can help you unlock those doors and step into your purpose using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or Solution Focused Brief Therapy. If you are experiencing grief, anxiety, depression or work or personal relationship concerns, I would love to assist with developing a treatment plan. We will work together to manage your mental health by utilizing keys to developing problem solving skills, creating goals, and set boundaries.

If you are ready to unlock those doors, I would love to support and guide you through this process.

You don't have to explain your whole story before we get started. Whether you're working through old trauma, anxiety that follows you into every room, or family dynamics that have never felt right, I'm here to help you make sense of it, and move through it.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a Master of Science in counseling. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and seniors, and I've supported people through trauma, grief, addiction, bipolar disorder, relationship conflict, and some of life's most disorienting transitions. I bring cultural awareness, warmth, and a direct style to every session. Good therapy should feel real, not clinical.

I became a therapist because I believe healing happens in relationship, and I'm committed to being a consistent, grounded presence in that process. I have been in the mental health field in last 5 years and a mental health therapist since 2024.

I love helping adults from all stages and walks of life to understand the things that are holding them back in order to find ways through them. After recognizing underlying barriers, we can work towards fully realizing your strengths and adjusting certain behaviors and thoughts to see things and be yourself in a healthier way.

Searching for the right therapist can feel overwhelming, and taking the first step isn’t always easy. I’m here to make that process feel a little less stressful. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, overwhelming emotions, relationship challenges, life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, we’ll work together in a supportive, judgment-free space where you can feel heard and understood.

I am a empathetic therapist . I work with my clients on where they are now and make a plan with the client to address issues with them at their own pace .
