EMDR retrains your brain so you experience your memories without a debilitating emotional response.

Medication management can help reduce the effects of mental health symptoms and lift the clouds to allow one to better understand and implement coping mechanisms. By providing a prescriber at our practice we are better able to collaborate as a team to come up with the best possible treatment plan for our patients.

Specialist

Here at Serenity Wellness and Counseling center it is important to us to that our THERAPIST become experts in an area of specific interest. Through specialization, our therapist work to become leaders in their areas of expertise. COUNSELORS who follow a specialty tend to have a passion for a particular concern (ie. Marriage & family, eating disorders, anxiety, trauma). Our THERAPIST are then able to help provide more meaningful changes and coping strategies within their areas of expertise.

What People Are Saying

Extremely professional and knowledgeable. Made me feel very comfortable as a parent to bring my daughter to them . I highly recommend Serenity Wellness, It’s the best place to be so you can overcome your emotional feelings or anything you need help with and move on!! it was Incredible To see How much they care for patients with the upmost compassion and respect, and this is very important as a parent. Also they are attentive and compassionate.

Serenity Wellness & Counseling Center provides a wonderful opportunity for me to learn and practice the counseling skills that I am learning in the Clinical Mental Health Counseling Master's program at Houston Baptist University. Nicole Bankhead is a knowledgeable and invigorating leader of an incredible counseling center. She is leading me to learn progressive techniques and counseling skills. I am fascinated by how she works with clients and implements different modalities that best suit her clients. I especially enjoy observing Nicole treating trauma by using EMDR. The other counselors in this practice are dynamic and well-trained in specialty areas. I enjoy shadowing and observing these talented counselors in action. I am thankful for Serenity Wellness & Counseling Center and how working here is growing me as a student counselor.

Nicole and the ladies at Serenity are always quick to respond and get appointments scheduled. They provide a vast array of different therapies and are extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and down to earth. Love that they see all age ranges and have a therapy dog! Nothing but good things to say about the therapy quality and the wonderful people who work here.

Nicole at Serenity Wellness Counseling has honestly changed my entire way of thinking and thus, my life. I understand I put in a lot of work too, but without her tools and guidance I don’t know how I would have continued to cope throughout my life. She practiced EMDR on me, and while I have been in therapy for over a decade, and used EMDR as a resource before, it has never been this effective. She took her time getting to know me, therefore, was able to get down to the real roots of my issues, in order for me to really recover. I have recommended her practice to several friends. I will continue to see her. Everyone in my life has noticed a drastic change, and are so grateful to her and Serenity. There is no price tag you can put on just enjoying life and making the most when this world can SEEM pretty intense and scary. Invest in yourself. It’s worth it. Thank you guys so much!

Serenity is a fantastic therapy facility. colleagues take an ideal approach to mental health care by incorporating therapy AND wellness into their treatment plans. The individual as a whole is treated and this is the type of care that mental health should always encompass. I HIGHLY recommend Serenity Wellness & Counseling!

Have never before felt this comfortable. Nicole Bankhead has helped me tremendously and I am forever grateful. She helps me evaluate and understand how I am feeling and has given me excellent tools to use going forward. You won't regret making an appointment at Serenity Wellness and Counseling.

I highly recommend Nicole and her team at Serenity Wellness!! It's rare to find a facility that offers Neurofeedback, EMDR, Marriage & Family therapy as well as having clinicians who work with both children and adults. This center honestly has it all and the staff is at the top of their game. You will not regret going to Serenity Wellness & Counseling Center for your mental health needs!
