Shay Ugoh
I am licensed therapist, based in Texas, with 8 years of experience. I am here to support & empower you in your journey to overcome the stress, anxiety, depression or conflict in your life. I have experience in working with individuals dealing with anxiety, family conflict, trauma and depression.
I do not take a "know it all approach." I will be working alongside you, using my clinical knowledge and skill to guide you, in order to assist you with figuring out the best way to work through your issues.
I have weekend and evening scheduling options available, in addition to what is shown on my calendar.
First session
In our first session together, I will take the time to ask you questions about your presenting symptoms and background to get a full understanding of your concern. During sessions, I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
Strengths
I am a non-judgmental provider that believes in treating everyone with respect, dignity, and compassion. Additionally, our time together during therapy sessions will be all about you. I will give you the time you need, without rushing, for you to tell me what you are going through and to make sure that I understand things clearly. I don't take a "know it all approach." I will be working alongside you, using my clinical knowledge and skill to guide you, in order to assist you with figuring out the best way to work through your matters of concern.
Ideal clients
I have experience in working with individuals dealing with anxiety, family conflict, trauma and depression.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Our thoughts, beliefs and attitudes affect our feelings, and ultimately our actions. I will work with you to recognize your distortions in thinking that are creating problems, then reevaluate them in order to gain more positive feelings and desired behaviors.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
I will be working alongside you, using my clinical knowledge and skill to guide you, in order to assist you with figuring out the best way to work through your issues. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
Christian Counseling
I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts, feelings, and topics of interest can be shared without fear of judgement. Making the choice to get therapy can be unsettling for anyone, and it can be even more so for those that have been conditioned to believe that all we have to do is have faith and things will magically change. God can do anything, but He also wants for us to do the work. James 2:17 NIV "In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead."
