Welcome to Affinity Counseling Connections, where we believe everyone deserves access to quality mental health care. Our affordable therapy services in Texas are designed to meet you exactly where you are in your mental health journey. With sessions starting at just $120, we’re committed to making professional counseling accessible to all Texans.
At Affinity Counseling Connections, our mission goes beyond providing therapy—we’re committed to transforming how mental healthcare is delivered and experienced in Texas. We believe that everyone deserves access to quality mental health support, regardless of income level or life circumstances.
Founded by Tamesha Sowell, LPC, our practice offers affordable therapy pricing in Texas at the private rate of just $120 per session—significantly lower than the industry average—with sliding scale options starting at $85 for those who qualify. This pricing structure reflects our core belief that financial constraints should never prevent someone from receiving the mental health support they need.
What truly sets Affinity Counseling Connections apart is our specialized expertise in working with teens, women, and individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. We recognize that these populations often have unique needs that require tailored therapeutic approaches, and we’ve developed specific methodologies to address these needs effectively.
Our commitment extends beyond individual care; we actively support organizations working to increase mental health awareness, reduce stigma, and break down cultural barriers in Texas communities. By fostering understanding and open conversations around mental health, we contribute to creating a more supportive environment for all.
Meet Tamesha Sowell, LPC
Hi, I’m Tamesha Sowell, a Licensed Professional Counselor passionate about helping women and teens feel emotionally safe, confident, and supported.
I believe therapy should feel:
- Human, not clinical
- Supportive, not overwhelming
- Empowering, not judgmental
Whether you’re navigating anxiety, stress, life transitions, or emotional overwhelm, you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to walk alongside you — at your pace.

She specializes in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, adapting her approach to meet each client’s unique needs and preferences.
Areas of Expertise:
- Adolescent mental health and development
- Women’s issues across the lifespan

Personal Philosophy: “I believe that therapy is a collaborative journey where the client is the expert on their own life. My role is to provide guidance, support, and evidence-based tools that empower individuals to overcome challenges and create meaningful change. I’m committed to creating a safe, judgment-free space where clients feel truly seen and heard.”
When not working with clients, Tamesha enjoys spending time in nature, traveling, laughing, family time, camping, binge watching movies, crafting, volunteering with local mental health initiatives, and daily walks with my dog “Little Bear”.

Personalized Approach: We recognize that every client is unique, which is why we tailor our therapeutic approaches to your specific needs, preferences, and goals rather than applying a one-size-fits-all methodology.
