Meet the Counselors

We are Texas board-certified, fully Licensed Professional Counselors. With 23 years of combined experience, we’ve supported thousands of individuals in reclaiming their inner peace and personal power. As African American therapists we understand not only the wounds of trauma but also the many nuances that shape how people process and heal.

As expert counselors and fellow survivors, we see you. We recognize the weight you carry, and we don’t just meet you in your pain; we honor it. Our empathy isn’t surface-deep. It’s lived, trained, and refined through both professional expertise and personal transformation.

Girls making heart with hands

At Flourishing Hope Counseling, our Licensed Professional Counselors offer trauma-trained care designed to reach the root of emotional wounds caused by narcissistic abuse, betrayal trauma, and cycles of emotional neglect. We don’t bypass the pain, we guide you through it.

We specialize in treating the complex aftershocks of trauma: anxiety, depression, PTSD, C-PTSD, grief, low self-trust, and emotional exhaustion. Whether you’re struggling to make sense of what happened or just trying to make it through the day, you are not broken, and you don’t have to do this alone.

Our team provides online counseling to individuals across Texas. Each counselor holds a Master’s Degree in Psychology and is a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. We are committed to clinical excellence, cultural sensitivity, and deeply respectful, emotionally safe care.

This isn’t just our profession, it’s our calling.
We walk with you. We advocate for your healing.
And we hold space for the version of you that’s waiting to rise.
