ICS Therapy
College can be exciting, but it can also feel overwhelming. You may be balancing classes, work, relationships, family expectations, finances, or trying to figure out who you are and what comes next. If you're feeling anxious, emotionally drained, stuck, or carrying the weight of everything on your own, you're not alone. ICS Therapy provides telehealth services for individuals living in Texas, Colorado, and Florida. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can slow down, process what you're experiencing, and build practical tools to navigate life's challenges with greater confidence. I enjoy working with college students who are managing anxiety, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, trauma, self-esteem, burnout, and the pressures of trying to meet everyone's expectations. As a military spouse, former military child, and mother of four, I understand how major life changes, uncertainty, and balancing multiple roles can impact your emotional well-being. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to your unique experiences and goals. Together, we'll help you better understand yourself, strengthen healthy coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change. Whether this is your first time considering therapy or you're returning after taking a break, you deserve a space where you feel heard, respected, and supported. My goal is to help you move beyond simply getting through each day so you can feel more confident, connected, and empowered in your life.

Natalie Thomas
I help high-achieving college students and young adults navigate the pressure that comes with success. From the outside, you may look like you have it all together. Inside, you may be exhausted from overthinking, worrying, second-guessing yourself, trying to get everything right, or wondering if you're really as capable as everyone thinks you are. You may also be dealing with grief, a major life transition, or uncertainty about what comes next. Common reasons clients come to me: * feeling overwhelmed, stressed, or emotionally drained * overthinking decisions or constantly second-guessing yourself * struggling with perfectionism, anxiety, or fear of getting it wrong * feeling pressure to succeed while your grades, motivation, or confidence are slipping * struggling with imposter syndrome or questioning your abilities * dealing with grief, change, or a difficult transition * worrying about graduation, your career, or what comes next I provide online therapy for college students and young adults in Texas using a supportive, trauma-informed approach. Together, we look at what's driving the pressure and how it's affecting the way you think, feel, perform, and respond. That may include anxiety, perfectionism, imposter syndrome, grief, life transitions, family expectations, or the pressure you put on yourself. Clients describe therapy with me as encouraging and transformational. We focus on practical tools you can use right away to manage stress, quiet the overthinking, communicate more effectively, cope with difficult emotions, and make decisions with more confidence. Sometimes the first sign that something is wrong isn't a crisis. It may look like declining grades, procrastination, trouble sleeping, irritability, withdrawing from other people, losing motivation, or a student saying, "I'm fine" while clearly struggling. The goal isn't to lower your expectations or stop caring about success. It's to help you handle the pressure in a healthier way so you can feel better, trust yourself, perform without constantly second-guessing yourself, and move forward with confidence. I offer a free 15-minute consultation where you can tell me what brings you to therapy, ask questions, and see if we're a good fit to work together.
Sandra Olshak
Clients that I see in my practice are frequently struggling with life transition, academic stress, family concerns, and issues in their interpersonal relationships, all while trying to succeed as students.

Sarah Crulcich
Hi there! I’m Sarah, MPH, RDN, a Registered Dietitian based in Houston, Texas, passionate about helping you build confidence in managing diabetes and metabolic health while creating a positive, sustainable relationship with food that honors your culture, preferences, and lifestyle. My passion for nutrition is rooted in my diverse experiences across community research, food banking, nutrition policy, and agriculture. These experiences have shaped my belief that nutrition is about so much more than what we eat. It’s about supporting your health in a way that feels realistic, enjoyable, and aligned with your life. My approach is trauma informed, compassionate, and centered on meeting you where you are, helping you make meaningful changes without giving up the foods you love. I believe healthy eating should feel flexible, empowering, and culturally inclusive. Rather than focusing on strict rules or perfection, I work alongside you to build practical habits that fit your daily routine and support your long term well being. My areas of specialty include diabetes, prediabetes, PCOS, menopause, and metabolic health across the lifespan. Using evidence based nutrition guidance and a collaborative coaching approach, I tailor each session to your unique goals, experiences, and values. Together, we’ll focus on building sustainable habits, improving your confidence around food choices, and helping you feel supported every step of the way. As a Korean American, I understand how important it is to preserve cultural traditions while working toward your health goals. I enjoy helping clients find ways to incorporate meaningful foods into their lives without sacrificing health or enjoyment. Outside of work, I love exploring history through food, gardening, playing tennis, and I’m currently learning Korean. I’m excited to support you on your health journey and help you discover that nutrition can be flexible, enjoyable, and personalized to you. Ready to start?

Destiny Holmes
Hello! I’m Destiny Holmes, a Registered Dietitian and San Antonio, Texas native. I’ve supported people living with diabetes throughout over 5 years of nutrition counseling in my hometown and became a Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist. I love seeing the whole picture of your care come together, including lifestyle choices and advocating for a medication regimen that fits your needs and preferences, and I use our time together to support you in reaching your goals. I see patients of all ages for conditions related to diabetes such as prediabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease and kidney disease, and I also empower you to use all of the tools available to you, including diabetes technology and devices. Centering a positive relationship with food, I truly believe in finding the least restrictive, most fulfilling diet that suits your schedule and budget. Outside of seeing clients, I’m a sewing novice finding time to exercise, plan recipes using up the random leftover ingredients in my fridge/pantry and serving in my community and local church. I’d be honored if you’d allow me to work with you and be a part of the bigger picture that is your overall well-being. Ready to start? Book a visit directly at https://diabetesdigital.co/start.
Tiana Lavin
Hi! I’m Tiana Lavin (she/her), a Registered Dietitian who works with adults seeking balance between enjoying food and managing blood sugars in a sustainable, real-life way. Whether you’re newly diagnosed, burned out, or just want to understand your body better, I’m here to support your growth—without judgment or quick fixes. I specialize in helping people understand and optimize diabetes technology (CGMs, insulin pumps), build flexible nutrition routines, and shift toward long-term health that doesn’t feel restrictive. Living with type 1 diabetes has given me firsthand experience of what it’s like to navigate tech, burnout, and a healthcare system that doesn’t always listen. I know what it feels like to count carbs, use CGMs, and advocate for your own needs—and I bring that personal insight into every session. My ideal client: They want to learn and grow They are looking for balance—not perfection They are ready to make long-term, sustainable change More about me: I live with type 1 diabetes and use a continuous glucose monitor daily. That lived experience helps me connect deeply with the emotional and practical challenges my clients face. Outside of sessions, you can find me on the pickleball court, treasure hunting at thrift shops, or enjoying the California coast. What to Expect Sessions are collaborative, non-judgmental, and tailored to you. We’ll build a personalized plan that fits your life—not one that flips it upside down. Whether you’re looking for structure, education, or accountability, you’ll be met with encouragement and empathy. Ready to start? Book a visit directly at https://diabetesdigital.co/start.
Melissa Bennett-Heinz
I practice via telehealth in NY, NC, WA, and TX. I specialize in working with adult men and women who may look fine on the outside, but inside you're struggling to get your own needs met, self-doubt, perfectionism, and shame. Gestalt Therapy goes beyond looking only at the cognitive, linear perspective of the person. It demands of the therapist an awareness of the body and how it manifests in the psyche. Through its focus on process rather than content, the patient gains an experiential awareness of how they do what they do and new choices emerge spontaneously. The radical focus on process in Gestalt creative therapy keeps the work alive and full of possibility for both the patient and for my work as a therapist. Melissa Bennett-Heinz obtained her master’s degree in clinical social work from Columbia University (Class of 2002) and is a graduate of Gestalt Associates for Psychotherapy in New York City, NY. In addition to her background in Gestalt Therapy, she obtained her bachelor's and master’s degrees from the esteemed conservatory, Manhattan School of Music, in New York City, where she majored in Oboe Performance. Melissa completed cognitive behavioral studies under the tutelage of Dr. William Sanderson. She is a licensed clinical social worker in NY, WA, NC, and TX and has over twenty years of specialized training and experience in PTSD, childhood abuse, mood and anxiety disorders. Melissa brings her background as a classical musician and deep spirituality together in her unique approach in Gestalt's creative and experiential therapy.

Alyn Bullock
