Our therapists provide family therapy in Houston, TX

Welcome! I am Monika Parker, a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate and National Certified Counselor in Texas, who is currently being supervised by Adam Dueber LPC-S. I earned my Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Grand Canyon University. I invite Military & Veterans, military families, adolescents and adults.

My approach is collaborative and grounded in evidence-based practices such as CBT, DBT and a person centered approach. We will focus on building a strong therapeutic relationship where you feel safe, connected, and free to show up as your authentic self while creating space for reflection, healing, and growth.

I aim to champion holistic mental health and walk alongside individuals as they navigate their journey toward self-understanding and fulfillment. What drives my work is witnessing the transformation that happens when clients move from moments of vulnerability to a place of confidence, clarity, and empowerment. 

Hi, I'm Sayra Medina, a licensed professional counselor with over 15 years of experience in the behavioral health field. I believe most people are doing the best they can with the tools, experiences, and stories they have been given. My role is not to tell clients who they should be, but to help them better understand who they are. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and families navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, and trauma. Together, we create a space for self-discovery, healing, and meaningful growth. 

I believe healing is not always found through words alone. Drawing from play therapy, experiential techniques, and evidence-based practices, I create opportunities for clients to explore, reflect, and learn in ways that feel engaging and meaningful. My goal is to help clients gain insight, strengthen resilience, and move toward lasting growth. 

Whatever brings you to therapy, I believe meaningful change begins with the courage to show up and the willingness to be curious about your own story. If you are ready to take that next step, I look forward to creating a space where you can explore, heal, and grow at a pace that feels right for you.

I’m a Licensed Master Social Worker with a background in outpatient therapy, inpatient psychiatric care, and residential treatment, supporting both adolescents and adults. Most of my work centers on helping people navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, family conflict, and major life changes. My focus is providing a grounded, reliable space where clients can slow down, regain stability, and move forward with clarity and self‑trust.

I use trauma‑informed, strengths‑based methods to help clients understand their experiences and develop tools for healing. You can expect a supportive, steady space where we focus on clarity, emotional regulation, and sustainable progress.

You deserve a space where you feel heard, supported, and safe to grow. When you’re ready to take the next step toward healing and clarity, I’m here to walk alongside you.
