Hello & Welcome!

I’m Ayesha, the founder of Thrive & Heal Therapy PLLC, where I provide virtual therapy for adults across Texas. I began my professional journey with a Bachelor’s degree in Finance and Marketing, but soon realized my true passion was in helping others. This led me to pursue a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy with an emphasis in Licensed Professional Clinical Counseling.

I’m passionate about working with individuals facing depression, disorderd eating, trauma, and PTSD. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where you can explore life’s challenges, identify unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, and begin the process of healing and growth.

My clinical background includes working with children and teens in foster care, where I provided skills training to help manage maladaptive behaviors. I’ve also offered psychotherapy to children, teens, and adults in nonprofit organizations, behavioral hospitals, and eating disorder treatment centers. These diverse experiences have helped shape my compassionate, adaptable approach to therapy.

I lead with a goal-oriented mindset, grounded in empathy, compassion, and openness. I use an integrative approach, drawing on techniques from various therapeutic models to tailor our work to your specific needs and challenges. My priority is to build a strong, honest therapeutic alliance—one where you feel seen, heard, and supported as you explore deeper thoughts, emotions, and experiences.

Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready to make a change, I’m here to support your journey toward mental wellness and personal transformation.
