Welcome to 290 Therapy
Processing Pain to pursue purpose
You are the one who holds it together. At work, at home, for everyone. And somewhere along the way, holding it together started costing more than it gives back.
Maybe you are tired in a way sleep does not fix. Maybe you are moving through a life you built on purpose and still feel disconnected from it. Maybe you have been the strong one so long that you are not sure who you are underneath it.
You do not have to keep carrying this by yourself, and you do not have to explain yourself here.
290 Therapy is a space for Black women in Texas and Illinois to put down what they have been holding and come home to themselves.

Who We Are…
Founded in 2021 by Tyra Steverson, LCPC, 290 Therapy was created to be more than a therapy practice. It is a place where Black women can find support, healing, and community while navigating life's challenges.
We provide culturally responsive online therapy for Black women and mothers across Texas and Illinois. We specialize in helping women navigate anxiety, stress, depression, grief, trauma, burnout, motherhood, life transitions, and the emotional weight of always being the strong one.
We are particularly passionate about Black maternal mental health, supporting women through fertility journeys, pregnancy, postpartum transitions, identity shifts, parenting challenges, and the emotional complexities of motherhood.
Our work is rooted in the belief that therapy is a form of resistance, reclamation, and self-trust. We provide depth-oriented care that honors your story, your identity, your struggles, your joy, and your becoming.
Whether you are adjusting to motherhood, navigating postpartum challenges, healing from trauma, processing grief, setting boundaries, managing anxiety, or rediscovering yourself in a new season of life, you do not have to do it alone.
We work with nuance, care, and cultural context. At 290 Therapy, you will never be asked to shrink, explain away, or compartmentalize your experience.
We see you in your fullness. We hold space for your healing. We honor the power of your return to yourself, your truth, and your wholeness.
This is your space to feel. To rest. To grow.
This is your invitation to come home to yourself.
We Heal in Community
At 290 Therapy, we empower individuals on their healing path towards liberation for the mind, body, and spirit. We recognize the profound influence of our world on individual and collective experiences. Through affirming therapy sessions, we empower clients to reclaim their voices and define their identities. Our approach at 290 Therapy emphasizes progress in therapy through communal values, resistance, identity awareness, and meaningful connections.
