Meet Deja Getwood, BS, MFT Resident
Are you navigating the complexities of early adulthood and seeking a supportive, fresh perspective on your mental health journey? Look no further! I’m Deja Getwood, and I’m here to empower and guide you through this transformative phase of life.
About Me
A daughter, sister, and friend, I’ve journeyed from Port Arthur, TX to call Houston my home for the past five years. My path to becoming a therapist was inspired by my previous work in healthcare, child advocacy, social services, and education. It was during my time assisting children and families affected by abuse and neglect that I discovered my passion for helping others heal and prioritize their mental well-being.
I hold a Bachelor of Science in Health Science with a minor in child and family development from Stephen F. Austin State University. Currently, I’m pursuing my M.Ed. in Marriage, Couples, and Family Counseling at Lamar University.
Why Therapy?
Life’s relationships and experiences led me to recognize my own healing journey, stemming from childhood and transitioning into adulthood. My calling is to assist others in self-discovery and mental health prioritization. I’m dedicated to creating a safe, nurturing space for my clients, accompanying them on life’s journey, including its challenges, conflicts, and revelations. Together, we’ll explore your desired healing and motivate you to embrace the change, peace, and new beginnings that resonate with you and your life.
Areas of Expertise
I work with individuals, couples, and families, with a particular focus on:
– Grief
– Stress
– Anxiety
– Depression
Diverse and Inclusive Approach
I have a special affinity for working with individuals in the LGBT community, ensuring a safe and accepting environment for all clients.
