About
The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.
Raymond Obiajulu is a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. He completed his master’s degree program at Walden University. After his introduction to the key areas of nursing, he found that psychiatry comprised the exact sort of comprehensive and holistic healthcare that he wished to practice. Raymond has experience treating a wide range of conditions including but not limited to anxiety, depression, PTSD, OCD, mood disorders, bipolar disorder, and dementia. He incorporates an evidence-based approach in his practice with a focus on holistic mental health treatment.
As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, he serves as a patient advocate, providing continuity of care, managing total care, and attending to issues that affected his patients' physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Raymond looks forward to collaborating with his colleagues and other healthcare team members to provide the best patient care possible to our community, while they teach, learn, and build lifelong relationships with their patients and each other. He is passionate about serving mankind, as it has also been a part of his life's journey.
Raymond loves to extend the motto of helping his patients fulfill their needs, as it helps him fulfill his own. After all, as Mahatma Gandhi said, "The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others." He strives to create individualized treatment plans tailored to each unique individual and their life goals. His goal is for his patients to feel confident with their plan of care and know that together they will work together to achieve their goals.

I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) with 5 years of experience providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care. I work primarily with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma-related symptoms, sleep concerns, psychotic disorders, and life-transition stress. My approach is collaborative and patient-centered, with a focus on helping clients gain clarity, strengthen coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change.
I earned my master’s degree in nursing from Walden University. My clinical approach is evidence-based and tailored to each client’s unique needs and goals.

I remind my clients—and myself—that this season of their life is only one chapter, not the entire book. In our work together, I honor the weight of what they’ve survived while supporting them in reclaiming their power to shape what comes next. I help them reframe their experiences, reconnect with their voice, and recognize the strength that has carried them this far. Their trauma does not define them; instead, I walk alongside them as they discover the meaning, healing, and empowerment they choose to create moving forward.
I’m Erica Fulton, a licensed professional counselor who believes people are meant not just to survive, but to thrive and live out their purpose. I bring together lived experience, clinical training, and evidence-based care to support clients navigating trauma, grief, ADHD, and major life transitions. After losing my husband, I took time to rebuild, and that experience shapes how I show up in therapy. I specialize in working with individuals impacted by trauma or change, helping them reconnect with themselves, process their experiences, and build tools for stability, growth, and long-term healing at their own pace.
My approach is warm, relational, and trauma-informed. I prioritize creating a safe space where clients can explore their story and emotions. I draw from evidence-based practices like CPT, DBT skills, and grief-informed care. I tailor each session to support healing, insight, and practical growth in a way that feels grounded and collaborative.
Healing takes courage, and starting therapy is a meaningful step. I strive to ensure you feel supported and not alone in the process. I bring compassion, clinical skill, and steady presence to our work together. If you’re ready to reconnect with your strength, and move toward a life that feels more grounded, I would be honored to support you.

I believe healing begins when we feel truly seen and understood, and my goal as a therapist is to create a space where you can show up fully—messy, real, and human—and still feel accepted.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 8 years of experience helping adults navigate life’s challenges. I began my career in applied behavior analysis with children on the autism spectrum before transitioning to work with eating disorders, mood disorders, and anxiety. Through these experiences, I learned how deeply our emotions, bodies, and stories are connected and how healing begins when we feel truly seen and supported.
I earned my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Houston Christian University. My therapeutic approach blends accountability with humor to foster honesty and growth. I use cognitive processing therapy for PTSD, cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy to support lasting change.
I aim to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and supported as you navigate life’s ups and downs.

I am a down to earth, bare bones counselor. I have a straight forward, no nonsense approach to therapy.
Deanna Ball is a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor, with over 20 years of experience. She is passionate about working with the LGBTQ+ community as well as addiction issues. She is a Sex Therapist as well as an Anger Resolution Therapist. Deanna specializes in depression, grief, sexual health, LGBTQ+ issues, and substance abuse (addiction) issues.
Deanna had two Master's degrees from Grand Canyon University, one in Professional Counseling and the other in Addiction Counseling. She is currently attending the University of Metaphysical Science and has achieved her Bachelor's in Metaphysics and has recently submitted her Master's Thesis and will soon be awarded her Master of Metaphysical Science degree. After that, she will pursue her Ph.D. in Metaphysical Science.
Deanna's background in addiction has molded her to be more direct & assertive in her approach. She doesn't hold back when giving feedback. Many clients say they appreciate the fact she's direct and tell it as she sees it. She won't hold your hand, but she will walk beside you. Many counselors do not have the addiction counseling specialty, several clients do not realize the effects addiction has had in their life; as they may have been raised in that environment & have no issues with drugs/alcohol personally. If you have been affected by addiction please reach out.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Codependency therapy with our Thriveworks Houston therapists helps people reduce and overcome codependent habits, which involve sacrificing one’s own needs to meet the needs of others (usually those closest to them). It helps to improve one’s well-being as well as the health of their relationships.
Codependency therapy works by helping the individual recognize, understand, and accept codependent patterns — including why and how they might’ve developed. In addition, it focuses on helping the individual to kick these tendencies and build more balanced relationships that allow them to support others without neglecting their own needs.
Codependency therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and via Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Codependent counseling can last for a few weeks, months, or longer. It depends on the exact needs of the client as well as the severity of their codependent challenges and other needs or preferences.
Anyone who lives with a chronic psychological disorder will fully appreciate the debilitating nature that this disorder can have on everyday living. Codependency and dependent personality disorder refer to psychological conditions that fall under the eye of anxious personality disorders.
