Support for the woman behind all the roles.
You may be a mother, partner, professional, caregiver, daughter, and the person everyone calls when something goes wrong. There is room here for the woman carrying all of it. Healing Path offers warm, trauma-informed telehealth therapy for women throughout Texas.
Care without judgment
You deserve support that sees the whole picture.
You wear so many hats that it can be hard to remember the last time you had a moment just for yourself. You may be keeping work moving, caring for family, remembering every appointment, and trying to be present for the people you love—all while feeling exhausted, anxious, irritable, or unlike yourself. Even when you seem to be handling everything, it can still feel heavy.
You do not have to reach a breaking point to deserve support. You can love your family, value your work, and still need rest, boundaries, and someone to listen. Therapy gives you room to set down the expectations for a while and talk honestly about how you are doing.
I can help you make sense of what has been weighing on you, recognize patterns that leave you depleted, and practice coping skills that fit your actual day. Together, we can work on communicating your needs, setting boundaries with less guilt, navigating anxiety or low mood, and finding your way back to things that matter to you. We will choose manageable steps together. You do not need to arrive with everything figured out.

Understanding PMDD
When part of the month feels especially hard.
Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) is a condition involving severe mood symptoms in the week or two before a period. Symptoms typically improve within a few days after bleeding begins. Unlike more manageable premenstrual changes, PMDD can significantly disrupt work, relationships, and daily life.
Symptoms can include intense irritability, anxiety, sadness, mood swings, difficulty concentrating, low energy, and feeling overwhelmed or out of control. These experiences deserve to be taken seriously. A qualified clinician can assess the timing and pattern of symptoms and consider other explanations. Keeping a daily symptom record across at least two menstrual cycles can help with that assessment.
Support grounded in lived and professional experience.
I bring both lived and professional experience to my work supporting women navigating PMDD. I know how important it is to feel heard rather than dismissed. In therapy, I can help you notice patterns, prepare for more difficult days, practice coping and communication skills, and make room for self-compassion.
With your permission, we can also coordinate with your medical provider. Therapy can be part of PMDD care alongside medical treatment; medication and hormonal treatment options are discussed with a qualified prescribing clinician. Your care should reflect your symptoms, preferences, and needs.
