Caledra Wortham

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Fort Worth, TX


I believe that healing is not a one size fits all process. Every person arrives with a unique story, a distinct set of strengths, and their own way of making meaning in the world. I honor that individuality as I provide a therapeutic space where clients feel seen, supported, and empowered to grow at a pace that feels authentic to them. I believe in helping people and not fixing them because people aren't broken.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • San Antonio, TX


Hola, I’m Sofia! I know reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step, and I want you to know you’re not alone in it. My hope is to offer a space where you can be yourself, and feel genuinely understood. I believe healing happens in connection, when we feel safe enough to explore our stories, our bodies, and the parts of ourselves we’ve learned to hide. In our work, we may create space to listen to the wisdom of your body, using somatic practices to help release what’s been held and create space for more ease, clarity, and self-trust.

Jessica Arzola

Therapist

Virtual • Texas


I believe that meaningful change happens when clients feel safe, understood, and supported. Reaching out for therapy can be difficult, and I strive to create a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where clients can openly explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences.

I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, relationship concerns, stress, and challenges related to cultural identity and immigration experiences. As a bilingual therapist, I provide services in both English and Spanish and understand the importance of feeling comfortable expressing yourself in the language that feels most natural to you.

My approach is collaborative and tailored to each client's unique needs and goals. I believe that while our past experiences can shape us, they do not have to define our future. Together, we can work toward healing, building resilience, strengthening relationships, and creating meaningful change.

Whether you are navigating a difficult life transition, processing painful experiences, or simply seeking greater self-understanding, I am committed to meeting you where you are and supporting you throughout your journey.

Being a Marriage and Family Therapist, I fundamentally believe the family is a system and if something is going on with one person in the family, it will likely affect other members of the family. As such we are products of our environment.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

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

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Texas

Finding the right therapist in Texas starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Consider the concerns you want to address — whether that's anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, or something else — and look for a licensed provider with experience in that area. Texas-licensed therapists include Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs), Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs), Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs), and psychologists, each with different training backgrounds. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match.

With Texas being the second-largest state in the country, access to in-person care varies widely depending on where you live. Virtual therapy makes it possible to connect with a licensed provider from anywhere in the state, whether you're in a major metro area or a smaller community. Many providers on Headway offer both virtual and in-person sessions, so you can choose what works best for your schedule and preferences.

Therapy in Texas can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay out of pocket. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per session. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist who fits your needs and your budget.
