Find a therapist in Texas — covered by insurance

I have dedicated three decades of my life to providing counseling services. My therapeutic approach is Existential Phenomenological, with a strong emphasis on Jungian psychology. I was introduced to Existential Phenomenology while attending the University of Dallas, where I completed my undergraduate degree in psychology. I obtained my master's in psychology at the University of West Georgia. Then, after several years, I returned to school to obtain a doctorate in Clinical Psychology. Additional studies include play therapy, art therapy, SandPlay, EMDR, family studies, psychophysiology, and neuropsychology. My eclectic tools range from expressive art therapies to cognitive behavioral techniques. In addition, I have been blessed with training and work opportunities that have sharpened my clinical skills. My experience includes being a therapist for outpatient clinics, private practice, and hospital settings (inpatient, day hospital/partial hospital, intensive outpatient, and mobile assessment team).

As a faith-based holistic therapist in Texas, I focus on aiding you navigate life’s challenges and heal from past experiences.

Recognizing when you're overwhelmed isn’t weakness—it’s wisdom. Whether you’re stuck in familiar painful patterns or navigating a new life transition, I’m here to help guide you. Since 2011, I’ve supported diverse clients across inpatient, outpatient, substance use, and crisis settings. I offer contemplative, trauma-informed care for LGBTQ+ adults, veterans, artists & creatives, and high-performing professionals, and I help people of all backgrounds deepen self-understanding and work through questions of identity, meaning, and purpose.

I believe that therapy should be tailored to each client individually as it is not a “one size fits all" solution. Whether or not you have a “diagnosis” therapy is incredibly important and is a space where you get to talk about your everyday stressors or your major traumas. It’s up to you. I am dual licensed in Texas and New York.

I’m passionate about helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, life challenges and transitions, identity, grief and loss, and relational challenges with compassion and practical support. I utilize evidence based treatment depending on your needs and treatment goals. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with eight years of experience in community mental health in Oklahoma, where I provided individual therapy, group therapy, and crisis intervention. I hold a BA in Psychology from Harding University and an MA in Clinical Psychology from Wheaton College. Before returning to the U.S. in 2023, I lived abroad in France and North Africa for over seven years, an experience that deepened my understanding of culture, transition, and resilience.

Hi, I’m Martica Sherman, MS, LPC—The Unapologetic Therapist. With over 12 years of experience in mental health care, I specialize in grief, CBT, person-centered, and solution-focused therapy for youth, adults, couples, and elders. My approach is rooted in radical empathy, cultural awareness, and unapologetic truth-telling.

I believe healing begins the moment you stop shrinking to fit someone else’s comfort. In our sessions, I hold space where faith, culture, and mental wellness intersect—offering real talk, restorative practices, and a judgment-free zone to help you reclaim your peace.

Whether you're navigating loss, identity, relationships, or generational cycles, I’m here to walk with you—unapologetically.

Let’s do the work. Let’s fight for your peace. Let’s heal without shame.
