*Welcoming New Clients Starting 08/24/2026
My name is Nina Su, and I am a Clinical Intern at Healing Pathways of Houston, and a student in the Clinical Mental Health Counseling Program at Sam Houston State University. My approach to therapy is grounded in humanistic, systemic, and multicultural perspectives. In practice, this means I believe healing begins through authentic connection and compassionate understanding. Together, we'll make sense of these experiences and create space for growth, resilience, and lasting change.
I am passionate about supporting neurodiverse and multicultural individuals, including immigrants and children of immigrants. Whether you're seeking support as an individual or as a couple, we'll explore the patterns that shape your life and relationships, reconnect with your values, and challenge stories that no longer serve you; we’ll cultivate greater self-understanding, emotional safety, and authentic connection.
Relationships—with ourselves and with others—are living, evolving systems that thrive through openness, vulnerability, and mutual care. I enjoy helping people strengthen communication, navigate conflict with compassion, rebuild trust, and deepen intimacy.
On a rainy day when the storm doesn't seem to let up and you're caught without an umbrella, the simple gesture of someone offering you theirs—even for a few moments—can make the journey feel a little less heavy. To me, therapy is much like that. Whether you're weathering a passing shower or a relentless storm, you don't have to face it alone.
Therapy doesn’t have to be about becoming someone new; it can be about reconnecting with who you’ve always been beneath the expectations, protective patterns, and experiences that have shaped you, strengthening meaningful relationships.
If you're still wondering whether we'd be a good fit, here's a little about me outside the therapy room. I enjoy cooking, baking, weightlifting, hiking, photography, and leatherworking.
Please feel free to schedule a free 15-minute consultation with me or for a full initial appointment. I look forward to speaking with you soon!
