Welcome-I’m truly glad you’re here.
My name is Ayodelli Whyte-Kortsen, and I’m a licensed therapist in the state of Texas with over 8 years of experience helping individuals navigate life’s most challenging and transformative seasons. I specialize in working with adolescents, adults, and older adults (ages 13 to 75)-providing support for anxiety, trauma, depression, low self-worth, motivation, emotional dysregulation, and major life transitions.
My approach is warm, flexible, and tailored to you. I integrate evidence-based practices including CBT, IFS, REBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Mindfulness, offering personalized care that fits your unique needs, values, and goals.
Teens & Young Adults: Whether you're struggling with school pressure, identity, relationships, or anxiety, I provide a supportive space to build resilience, confidence, and emotional tools that last.
Adults & Professionals: From career burnout and parenting stress to unresolved trauma or personal growth, we’ll work together to find clarity, balance, and sustainable change.
Older Adults: I offer compassionate support for life transitions, grief, legacy work, and identity shifts, helping you navigate this stage with strength and peace.
Military & Veterans: As a veteran myself, I understand the complexities of service-related trauma, reintegration, and invisible wounds. You don’t have to carry it alone.
My style is collaborative and direct, grounded in empathy and respect. You’ll be met with honesty, compassion, and encouragement as we move toward meaningful, lasting growth-at your pace.
I offer both virtual and in-person sessions, with flexible scheduling Monday through Saturday and in-network insurance options. Taking the first step can feel daunting, but you’re not alone.
You deserve support. You deserve peace. You deserve to heal. Let’s start your journey-together.

03 · What happens next
Ayodelli practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Ayodelli's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.
BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Ayodelli at this point.
BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Ayodelli is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Ayodelli.
You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.
A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.
Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.
04 · Before you commit
Built from what Ayodelli actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Ayodelli's - Ayodelli has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.
“How do you decide when someone is ready to work on a traumatic memory itself?”
Pacing is the biggest safety question in trauma work. A clear, unhurried answer here matters more than any credential.
“How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”
On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.
