Embracing Change: The Journey from Mind Meld Psychotherapy to OSO Wellness

At OSO Wellness, we are passionate about growth, transformation, and being our true selves. This core belief inspired our recent name change from Mind Meld Psychotherapy to OSO Wellness—a change that reflects our evolving values and vision.

Rebranding is more than just a new name; it signifies an evolution of our identity and our purpose. Through this post, we aim to share the reasons behind our transformation and what it signifies for you, our clients, and our dedicated team.

Why the change matters

Rebranding is not just about a name—it’s a renewed vision. As our services and team have grown, so too has our understanding of what comprehensive mental health care can look like. We’ve expanded from individual therapy into a multidisciplinary practice that serves diverse populations across Texas and Virginia. With specialties in trauma recovery, men’s mental health, veteran care, and LGBTQIA+ affirming therapy, OSO Wellness reflects who we are today and where we’re going tomorrow.

The Foundation of Change

Our journey began as Mind Meld Psychotherapy, rooted in a commitment to deliver compassionate mental health care. Initially, we concentrated solely on therapy and individual support. However, as we expanded our services to reach clients across different states, we gained a deeper understanding of the complexities of mental health care.

We realized there was so much more we could offer—services that reflect the fullness of our clients' identities, needs, and life experiences. That realization inspired us to find a name that represents the strength, warmth, and depth we strive to bring into every interaction.

In essence, we needed a name that encompassed our mission for holistic healing and showed that we are here to support each individual's unique journey.

OSO Wellness was born from that vision—a name that encapsulates our inclusive values and our unwavering dedication to whole-person care.

The Meaning Behind OSO

Pronounced “Oh-So Wellness,” our name reflects both intention and identity.

The name "OSO"—Spanish for "bear"—was chosen with intention. The bear represents strength, calm, protection, and the ability to adapt through seasons of life. It symbolizes the resilience we see in our clients and the presence we aim to bring into every therapeutic encounter. It’s also a heartfelt nod to our founder’s middle name and personal journey, making OSO Wellness both a clinical mission and a personal legacy.

This name reminds us that healing is personal, and that mental health care must be both powerful and gentle—just like the bear.

OSO Wellness represents a welcoming space where healing happens at both a personal and clinical level. We provide an environment where clients feel safe and supported in their pursuit of wellness.

Embracing Growth and Transformation

Transitioning to OSO Wellness affirms our continued commitment to evolve in response to our clients' needs. Mental health isn’t linear—it’s a journey through awareness, healing, and growth. Our approach meets people where they are, using individualized care that integrates traditional techniques with innovative, evidence-based practices.

We offer:

• Individual therapy tailored to identity, trauma, anxiety, and life transitions

• Couples counseling for connection, communication, and healing

• Adolescent therapy (13+) for developmental and emotional support

• Gender-affirming and sexuality-focused therapy in safe, inclusive spaces

• Veteran and caregiver support with trauma-informed, mission-aware care

Whether through one-on-one therapy, consultation, or broader outreach, our mission remains the same: helping people reconnect with themselves and thrive.

A Renewed Commitment to Wellness

At OSO Wellness, our approach reflects more than a model—it reflects a deep responsibility to meet people with presence, intention, and care. This chapter is guided by a commitment to show up fully for our clients, honoring the whole person—not just their symptoms.

We go beyond symptom relief to support growth at every level—mind, body, and spirit—by integrating:

• Mindfulness-based tools for anxiety, emotional regulation, and clarity

• Support for identity development, life transitions, and self-worth

• Collaborative care that bridges mental wellness with relational, behavioral, and lifestyle goals

• Specialized services for those navigating complex challenges across multiple identities

• A trauma-informed, emotionally attuned presence that centers dignity and empowerment

We believe in helping people not just survive, but grow—and in making healing feel both possible and personal. We believe wellness means more than managing pain—it means creating space to grow, reconnect, and thrive. The OSO Wellness name honors that vision, reminding us that everyone deserves care that reflects who they are and supports who they are becoming.

Looking Toward the Future

Our transition to OSO Wellness has opened the door to a new chapter—one shaped by continued growth, trusted care, and meaningful collaboration. As we look ahead, we remain grounded in the principles that brought us here: curiosity, compassion, and a belief in the healing power of connection.

Our commitment to whole-person care continues to evolve with our clients' needs. We’re actively expanding our services, deepening provider training, and exploring new ways to make care more accessible—especially for underserved and high-stress populations. Whether through technology, expanded outreach, or community partnerships, we are building a more responsive, adaptable model of mental health care.

With telehealth services in Texas and Virginia, a diverse and dedicated team, and a framework grounded in the biopsychosocial approach, we are uniquely positioned to serve individuals, couples, and families navigating complex life experiences.

We know the future of care is not one-size-fits-all—it’s relational, flexible, and inclusive. And we’re proud to grow alongside our community.

Your voice helps shape what OSO Wellness becomes. Through your feedback, stories, and collaboration, we become better stewards of the care you deserve.

Together, we listen, adapt, and lead—with intention, integrity, and heart.

You’ll notice an enhanced client portal that makes scheduling, communication, and paperwork easier to manage. Our expanded team now offers a broader range of services across Texas and Virginia—including support for individuals, couples, teens, and families—tailored to meet your specific needs and life circumstances.

What hasn’t changed is our core commitment to affirming care that respects your identity, honors your lived experiences, and supports your personal goals. Every provider at OSO Wellness brings deep clinical training and genuine compassion to their work, ensuring you receive care that is not only skilled but also human.
