About Me
Meet Dina Ramadan
Texas Licensed Professional Counselor Associate #96044
Supervised by Kristin Shanahan, M.A., LPC-Supervisor & Psychoanalyst
I offer you a warm, private space to say whatever comes to your mind, without holding anything back. We will process it together, and I’ll hold some of that heaviness for you until the next time we meet.
I want to help you change how you think and feel about yourself & how you relate to others, by getting to the root of what’s shaping your patterns.
I help individuals struggling with:
Anxiety
Depression
Relationship Issues
Family Conflict
Codependency
Domestic Violence
Trauma/PTSD/Complex PTSD
Moral Injury
Spirituality & Existential Exploration
PMOS/PCOS
Chronic Illness
Eating Disorders
Food Addiction
Obesity
Women’s Issues
Emotional Disturbance
Self Esteem
Avoidant Attachment
Beneath it all is a human longing to be fully known and to feel emotionally safe in the process, but past experiences cause us to unconsciously put up walls that push others away, leaving us feeling unseen.
Becoming a Therapist
Prior to becoming a therapist, my educational journey began in the field of nutrition and functional medicine, where I learned to heal chronic illnesses by identifying and addressing their root causes, particularly through nutrition and lifestyle practices. I witnessed firsthand the emotional toll that physical ailments have on a patient’s life. This inspired me to pursue further education at the Boston University Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine.
