“I found an approach that addressed my sleep, mood, and memory together — it finally made sense.” — A.S.
At Serenity Wellness and Counseling Center, we believe true healing is possible—and it begins the moment you feel safe, seen, and supported.
Located in Cypress, Texas, our practice was founded by Nicole Bankhead, a Licensed Professional Counselor whose own healing journey led her to create a space where others could experience deep, lasting transformation. What began as a personal calling has grown into a heart-centered practice rooted in compassion, integrity, and the belief that everyone holds the innate wisdom and strength to heal.
We are not a quick-fix practice.
We are not here to simply mask symptoms or offer surface-level solutions. Our mission is to guide you to the root of your struggles—whether emotional, physical, or spiritual—and walk alongside you as you reconnect with your authentic self.
Our approach is integrative and holistic. We offer a wide range of evidence-based therapies including EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and LENS Neurofeedback. We also offer cutting-edge services like Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), psychedelic integration, and functional medicine support. Every treatment plan is uniquely tailored to honor your story, your goals, and your needs.
We recognize that healing happens on many levels—body, mind, and spirit. That’s why our care team includes not only licensed therapists but also highly trained professionals in neurofeedback, functional medicine, and medication management. Even our psychiatric providers approach treatment from a whole-person perspective, practicing thoughtful prescribing aligned with our “less is more” philosophy.

Our commitment is to remain at the cutting edge of innovative healing practices for the mind, body, and spirit, offering a diverse range of options including MDMA and Ketamine Assisted Therapy, especially for veterans, first responders, healthcare workers, and individuals facing complex PTSD.
We aim to be a beacon of hope for individuals, children and couples, providing tools for emotional regulation and relationship support, all within a safe, nurturing environment. As we work towards launching a nonprofit to bridge gaps in care, our vision extends to serving all community members, regardless of cultural or socioeconomic background, ensuring everyone has a choice in their journey to healing from within.
