Kemi Sowunmi Donahue, LPC

Psychotherapist
TX
I'm Kemi, a Licensed Professional Counselor who believes real change starts with feeling truly heard. Since middle school, I've been the person others turn to for encouragement, so becoming a therapist felt less like a career change and more like coming home to it. I bring warmth, honesty, and a steady presence into every session, paired with clinical training in CBT, Internal Family Systems, and culturally responsive care. My goal isn't to hand you a script — it's to help you see your own strength clearly enough to use it. In our first session together, here's what you can expect Your first session is about getting oriented, not diving into everything at once. We'll talk through what brought you to therapy, what's been weighing on you, and what you're hoping will feel different. I'll ask questions to understand your history and current stressors, and you're welcome to ask me anything about how I work. By the end, we'll have a shared sense of direction and a plan for how we'll spend our time together going forward. There's no pressure to have it all figured out — that's what we're here to build together. The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions I bring a blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Internal Family Systems to help you understand not just what you're feeling, but why — and how to work with it rather than against it. I integrate culturally sensitive and Adlerian approaches, especially for clients navigating identity, family dynamics, or generational patterns. What sets my approach apart is flexibility: I tailor the method to the person, not the other way around, so sessions feel like real, responsive support rather than a formula.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider's self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan's benefits.
