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

Therapist

Welcome. I’m glad you’re here.

Reaching out for support can feel overwhelming. I aim to create a safe, collaborative, and grounded space from the beginning. I meet clients where they are and move at a pace that feels manageable and respectful.

I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families experiencing anxiety, trauma, addiction, and relationship challenges. I also specialize in complex and developmental trauma.

I support clients in integrating their spiritual and cultural values into therapy when desired and clinically appropriate. I was born in New Orleans and bring a culturally informed perspective shaped by my Latina, Indigenous, Christian, and Sephardic Jewish backgrounds.

I became a therapist because I have a deep commitment to helping people recognize and build their own strengths, especially during periods of feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected. I understand that seeking support takes courage, and I work to create a space where clients feel heard, understood, and supported throughout the process.

I earned a Master of Social Work (MSW) and PhD from Tulane University, as well as a Master of Public Health (MPH) from Tulane University’s School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Louisiana and Texas, and a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Minnesota. I also hold a Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC), Licensed Prevention Professional (LPP), and Certified Employee Assistance Professional (CEAP).

Every person has a story. The culmination of experiences in one's life shapes how they view themselves, their relationships, and the world. I have a passion for helping clients celebrate their unique strengths and gifts they share with others. With experiences in both private practice and hospitals, I have noticed a particular need for clients to separate their view of themselves from their current difficulties and circumstances. In spite of where clients may find themselves at the moment, my belief is that they have overcome every difficulty, challenge, and trauma that they have faced up to the present moment. As such, they will withstand their current circumstances, and will again declare victory.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right addiction counselor for you

Headway makes it easier to find support for overcoming addiction — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Richmond, TX

Finding addiction therapists in Richmond starts with understanding the kind of support that fits your needs. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, substance use, prescription drug misuse, behavioral addictions, and concerns that overlap with anxiety, depression, or trauma. Look for a therapist whose profile lists experience with addiction, substance use, harm reduction, motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, or coordination with medication-assisted care. Some people may also work with a psychiatrist or other prescriber as part of their care team.

Richmond is a smaller market, so local in-person options may be more limited than in larger Texas cities. Virtual appointments can expand your search while still letting you choose a therapist who understands addiction care and fits your schedule. As you compare Richmond counselors, look at whether each therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that work for you, and describes a non-judgmental approach to care. Reading bios can help you understand how a therapist talks about recovery, relapse, harm reduction, and long-term support before you book.

Therapy in Richmond can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for addiction therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and compare virtual and in-person availability. You can browse therapists, read profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:

* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741

If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
