Aaliyah Gilbert
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSW
I offer a therapy space where you don’t have to have it all together to be supported. I work with teens, young adults, adults, and couples navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, and identity shifts, including the perinatal period and concerns around intimacy. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in culturally responsive, trauma-informed care. Together, we’ll explore what’s beneath the surface, build practical tools, and create space for meaningful, lasting change. If you’re ready for a space where you can be honest, supported, and understood, I invite you to reach out.

Rachel Purcell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I believe that successful therapy happens after forming a solid foundation between the therapist and the client. My goal is to create a safe environment for you to be your full authentic self. My approach is client-centered and evidence informed, with a focus on helping clients navigate emotional challenges and improve overall well-being. I also utilize healthy humor in my sessions as I believe it can be very healing in the therapeutic process. I specialize in treating teens and young adults with OCD, anxiety disorders, depression, and self-esteem issues.

Radu Pop
Psychologist, Psychologist, PhD
I help adults and adolescents who are dealing with depression, anxiety, life stressors, chronic illness, and relationship concerns. Living with mental health symptoms impacts everything one does in daily life. Sometimes the result might be irritability and sadness, while at other times things can feel overwhelming and anxiety inducing. With specialized training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), health psychology and mood issues, I help clients identify their unique needs and establish achievable goals.
While at SMU, I have honed an approach grounded in clinical experience and academic training, which helps clients navigate relational challenges, identity development, and emotional issues. Drawing primarily from Experiential Therapy and integrating systemic approaches, I emphasize emotional expression, connection, and communication to support clients in exploring their personal growth while building healthier relationships.
I am currently a pre-licensed professional and I work under the supervision of Dr. Robert Kinney (Texas #37176).

Danielle Keys at Headway
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, M.S.ED, LCPC
I am a legally-blind counselor who listens carefully to client's needs to determine what works and what may not be effective. A collaborative approach is used to meet your needs. If you prefer a direct and interactive clinician that is my style. However, I'm flexible and integrate client preferences to achieve clients goals.
