(he/him)
Hi! I'm, Cedric Allen, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in the state of Texas. I am a Military veteran (with a Christian background) who has a passion for helping people who find themselves facing challenging situations and spaces in life. I received my Masters from the Dallas Baptist University and have been practicing for 3 years. I help clients who struggle with anger management, depression, anxiety, and relationship challenges.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then transition into specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create an adequate plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Being a military veteran, Christian, and having worked with persons from various backgrounds, I've developed a strategy which helps you view situations thoroughly, identify causes of your current challenges, and create plans which lead to measurable progression.
I love working with clients who really desire to journey to or return to the best version of themselves. My clients are ones who are eager to be better, but don't possess the tools or push needed to cause their goals to manifest. They often feel stuck and/or overwhelmed by life, but are willing to continue working toward their goals.
