I'm new to golf and while my friends have been helping me with my swing, I feel like I could benefit even more from a few golf lessons from a professional. If anyone has any recommendations on someone or somewhere near Houston, please let me know.

I would give the LPGA instructor at 5050 Acorn (Janet) a shot. Or at least contact her to find out what her pricing looks like.

If the LPGA instructor isn't your speed then you might ask 5050 if there is anyone else they would recommend.
Also 5050 adds the benefits of being right in your backyard, typically not crowded, and you're practicing on grass. Memorial's practice range can get slammed at times. And hitting off mats is like lowering the rim to 9' on a basketball goal. A grass driving range already takes bad lies and rough cuts out of the equation, mats just go one step further.
or you can research some of these:
