I help clients build coping skills, manage stress, and achieve personal growth. Together, we work toward overcoming obstacles and creating meaningful change.
Hello! My name is Dee, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a Master of Arts in Counseling from Prairie View A&M University and a specialized Mental Health certification from Lamar University. I have over seven years of experience Couseling in school settings with students who have special needs, as well as over two years in private practice supporting individuals and families.
In my practice, I work with clients experiencing adjustment disorders, anxiety, depression, and family challenges. I strive to create a compassionate, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and empowered to make meaningful changes in their lives.
As a licensed professional counselor and psychotherapist, my relationship with my client is the most important aspect of the process. I strive for connection and a collaborative spirit. It is always my goal to help the client with their unique and special needs. Whether someone struggles with anxiety, depression, grief, stress, trauma, or general relational issues, I want to develop a plan with them that will be customized to their needs, and specific to what their desired outcome is.
I am a passionate therapist who strives to empower my clients
I utilize an eclectic therapeutic style that allows me to meet the client where they are to help them accomplish their goals
Being a therapist is more than a job to me. It is a calling
My focus
I specialize in working with adults facing depression, anxiety, grief, PTSD, occupational stress, relationship conflicts, cultural and identity issues, and survivors of abuse. I help clients build understanding and chart a path forward using evidence-based approaches.
My communication style
My style is nurturing, accepting, empathic, and personable. I use unconditional positive regard to help you feel safe without judgment. I validate how you feel and normalize your situation so you can feel comfortable and at ease in our work together.
My journey to mental healthcare
I became a therapist because I have always accepted others, regardless of their background or circumstances. I believe in advocating for those who may not otherwise have a voice.











Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Searching for therapists in Tyler starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist may fit your needs. People often look for therapy in Tyler, TX for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or major life changes. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties that match your goals. You may also want to review approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, trauma-informed care, couples therapy, or faith-informed counseling when those preferences matter to you.
In a smaller city like Tyler, the number of local in-person appointments may vary by schedule, specialty, and location. Virtual therapy can expand your options across Texas while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in the state. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading therapist bios can help you understand communication style, areas of focus, and what to expect before you book.
Therapy in Tyler can be a significant expense without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see an estimated cost before booking. You can compare therapists in Tyler, review profiles, choose in-person or virtual care, 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.
