Arlee Pryor
MA, LMFT, CSTIP
(She/Her)
I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Texas and a registered Out-of-State Telehealth Provider in Florida.
I’m a Certified Sex Therapy Informed Professional (CSTIP) and I’m professionally trained in Gottman Method Couples Therapy and Relational Life Therapy. I am also certified in Prepare/Enrich for premarital counseling.
I love offering a safe therapy space for queer folks. As an out and proud lesbian myself, I know it’s important to trust that your therapist is affirming. While I specialize in LGBTQ+ care, my practice is a welcoming space for all people. Y’all means all!
Who I am as a therapist is a blend of warmth, directness, non-judgement, and compassion. I’ll invite you to explore not only your pains and anxieties but help you connect to your values, joys, and hope in your life.
As your therapist, I am a fellow traveler alongside you toward relational healing - helping you make sense of your unique life experiences, understand yourself on a deeper level, and find clear paths forward. I show up to sessions with not only education and training but as my true self- an authentic human that you can connect with and trust cares about you and your journey.
I wholeheartedly believe that relationships are the cornerstone of our lives- shaping our well-being, growth, and overall happiness- and I’m passionate about helping you create strong, fulfilling relationships to not only the people around you but to yourself.

I love therapy and I love being a therapist. I believe in the power of therapy and the therapeutic relationship because I’ve experienced its impact in my own life and relationships. I practice everything I share with the folks I work with - whether with myself or with my partner. Like the folks I work with, I’m always learning, showing up with curiosity, and working to increase self-compassion.
Picking the right therapist for you is such a vulnerable and intentional process. You can get a sense of my personality and therapeutic style through my professional IG : @arlee_lmft
