Houston, Texas therapist: Grief Recovery Center, licensed mental health counselor
LGBTQ+ Issues

Grief Recovery Center

Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LPC, LCSW, LMFT, LP, LPA-IPA
If you are part of the LGBTQIA+ community and seeking mental health support, you deserve care that is respectful, affirming, and grounded in understanding. Many individuals come to therapy to navigate identity exploration, anxiety, relationship challenges, family conflict, discrimination, or the emotional weight of feeling misunderstood. LGBTQIA+ individuals experience higher rates of anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts — particularly transgender, nonbinary youth, and LGBTQIA+ youth of color. Affirming therapy provides a safe space where you can speak openly without having to explain or defend who you are. At Grief Recovery Center in Houston, our licensed therapists and psychologists offer LGBTQIA+ affirming therapy both in person and online. We utilize trauma-informed, culturally competent approaches and understand how rejection, stigma, and isolation can impact mental health. We support clients with identity and coming out, relationship and communication concerns, healing from rejection or shame, workplace stress or discrimination, body image challenges, family transitions, and emotional wellness across the lifespan. Our goal is simple: to provide a space where you feel seen, respected, and supported. You don’t have to face these challenges alone — we’re here when you’re ready. Call or text 832-413-2410 to schedule an appointment and begin your healing.  
15 Years Experience
Online in New Orleans, LA
New Orleans carries deep collective trauma from Hurricane Katrina and subsequent flooding events, and therapists specializing in disaster recovery, PTSD, and community resilience remain in strong demand. The city's culture of celebration and togetherness can mask significant individual struggles with addiction, grief, and depression, and therapists here often work at the intersection of joy, loss, and survival. New Orleans' distinct cultural identity — rooted in African American, Creole, and Caribbean traditions — means culturally grounded and community-engaged therapy is particularly valued. Tulane Medical Center and University Medical Center New Orleans provide institutional mental health resources alongside a network of independent practitioners serving Uptown, Mid-City, and the Marigny.
