"Supporting Your Journey Toward Self-Discovery and Inner Acceptance"

ABOUT ME

Welcome, I’m glad you’re here!

My name is La’Nika Graham & I have a M.Ed. in Counseling & Development specialized in Marriage, Couple, & Family Therapy.

I provide counseling and support to children, teens, adults, couples, families, and groups throughout Texas, focusing on healing relationships, navigating life transitions, and nurturing emotional well-being—tailored to the unique needs of each individual or group.

(Services are available to Texas residents only).

I specialize in trauma-informed, culturally responsive therapy for individuals, couples, and groups navigating complex life challenges. With a holistic, strengths-based approach, I help clients build self-awareness, heal from trauma, and pursue meaningful personal and professional goals. My background in child welfare, foster care, adoption, disability services, and career coaching gives me a deep understanding of the systems and stressors that shape people’s lives. Rooted in empathy and collaboration, my work is grounded in a strong commitment to serving diverse and underserved communities.

I am a compassionate therapist who believes in meeting individuals where they are. My goal is to foster a safe and supportive environment where you can express yourself freely, explore personal growth, and build trust. Whether you are facing challenges or seeking change, I am here to walk alongside you in this process.

Growing up in a military family and moving frequently, I developed a strong appreciation for diversity, transition, and the importance of adaptability. That experience, combined with my professional work, informs my commitment to inclusive, culturally responsive care. Through my roles in supporting individuals impacted by immigration, migration, and displacement through asylum and foster care, I’ve gained a deep professional understanding of how these experiences affect identity, safety, and belonging—not only in cases of abuse or neglect, but also for those navigating complex emotional and systemic transitions.

“I believe in the power of safe spaces, honest connection, and honoring every lived experience.”
