Top therapists in Texas accepting new patients
Hi, I’m Kianté, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing virtual therapy to teens and adults throughout Texas. My background includes working with children, adolescents, adults, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, emotional regulation, life transitions, identity, relationships, and adoption-related experiences. I have a particular passion for working with adoptees and individuals exploring questions of identity, belonging, grief and loss, and the impact of past experiences on who they are today.
My approach to therapy is relational, collaborative, and individualized to each client. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), and Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI), while recognizing that therapy is not one-size-fits-all. I work to create a space where you can feel comfortable being yourself, exploring difficult emotions, and making sense of experiences without fear of judgment.

Hi I'm Denise Pounds. During the past 30 years I've worked with a variety of issues. I currently specialize in anxiety and trauma.

Sometimes moving forward feels impossible when so much from the past is still weighing on you. Anxiety may keep your mind on high alert, depression can make it difficult to feel hopeful or connected, and grief or trauma may leave you carrying emotions that are difficult to explain to the people around you. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and seniors experiencing anxiety, depression, stress management, grief or loss, and PTSD. These struggles can also overlap with ADHD, bipolar disorder, panic, relationship or family concerns, LGBTQIA+ and transgender experiences, identity concerns, or other effects of trauma. You may be trying to understand yourself, regain a sense of safety, or simply feel more like yourself again. Therapy can give you a supportive place to make sense of what you have been through while building confidence in where you are going next.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I believe life is definitely a journey filled with emotions that takes us down different paths. During troubled times, these emotions and feelings may be hard to understand. Although the journey for everyone may be different, our experiences stem from similar scenarios.

Are relationships—whether with family, friends, or yourself—leaving you feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, or disconnected? For more than 13 years, I've worked alongside teens and families in school settings, including 6 years as a mental health counselor and accommodations specialist. I understand the challenges young people face, from anxiety, depression, and ADHD to social pressures, identity development, family conflict, and academic stress. I also work with college students and adults navigating relationships, life transitions, burnout, grief, and anxiety. Therapy can help you feel grounded, understood, and more connected.
I believe therapy should feel like a safe place to be yourself, without judgment or pressure. My goal is to meet you where you are, listen with compassion, and help you feel more understood, confident, and supported along the way.
