Hi! I am Courtlyn Hale, M.Ed., LPC (#83067), a well-versed counselor in Texas who has undergone extensive training in complex trauma. With a graduate degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and credits towards a Ph.D. in Counselor Education and Supervision, I focus heavily on ethics, education, and ensuring that all Clients are treated by the best fitted Clinician. I am an EMDR trained counselor and am skilled in trauma counseling, PTSD, depression, and panic disorders. I have spent the last 5 years treating and advocating for children in the foster care system and is knowledgeable in family systems and adoptive care. I am passionate about trauma and use my education and skills to assist my Clients in working towards a better life using inner skills and new skills we learn together to reach goals for an adaptive path.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

The decision the choose counseling is a huge first step, and I honor that with a relaxed and friendly atmosphere while still delivering clinical results. In our first session, we'll discuss your history, symptoms, and what brought you to counseling. We'll work as a team to identify your needs and the best ways we can meet them. Counseling is about finding the best fit for YOU while still getting tangible relief.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

As a counselor, I believe that you have already made a huge step for yourself by pursuing counseling. Together, I hope to work as a team to find out how to meet your needs using my skills as a counselor. I am a LPC with significant experience and training in complex trauma, crisis, substance abuse or dependency, sexual abuse, family violence and/or dysfunction, and mental health symptoms or diagnoses. I am a fully trained EMDR Therapist and utilize EMDR in addition to Solution Focused Brief Therapy techniques to create a welcoming and collaborative counseling experience for my clients. I am invested in your healing and genuinely want you to succeed and thrive. Mental health matters!

My treatment methods

EMDR

I am a fully trained EMDR Therapist and have been using EMDR in my practice for 4 years. EMDR focuses on separating intense, emotionally charged information from facts. The relevant, helpful, adaptive information needed from the experience to be utilized for future use is then stored properly within the neural and memory networks. This allows clients to no longer view the event as an active trauma, but as a past event to guide life experiences.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

Solution-focused brief therapy is a short-term therapy which focuses on setting goals and working out how to achieve them. It's about the future rather than the past and promotes positive change by encouraging you to focus on what is in your control rather than what isn't. This treatment is particularly helpful for anxiety and depression and I use this alongside my clients as a team.
