I'm Sarah and I am a licensed mental health counselor who practices talk therapy. However, I'm also a human and I treat our interaction as so. We are equal. I am simply a catalyst to help you do the work and reach your potential. I am a listening ear, and a guiding hand. My approach to therapy is relaxed and open-minded. I utilize motivational interviewing, which helps to make the conversation more natural while still allowing us to get some real work done. I also utilize equine therapy as an in-person technique. Anything that will help my client discover new ways of looking at their life situations. I have helped clients build self-esteem, develop resiliency, and overcome life's obstacles through a personalized treatment plan tailored to each client. My favorite part of this work is watching someone tap into their own resources that they didn't even know they had. When I'm not talking with clients, I'm spending time with my horse, Hank. Or, you can find me at the gym. I hope that we can connect and begin your journey to your happiest self.

Hello, as a counselor I am passionate about supporting people through life’s challenges. I believe therapy should feel like a safe, welcoming space where you can be yourself, explore your experiences, and find new ways forward. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of helping clients manage stress, anxiety, grief, and relationship struggles while also discovering strengths they didn’t realize they had. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs, whether that means learning new coping strategies, reframing unhelpful thoughts, or simply having a space to talk through what’s on your mind. I see counseling as a journey we take together, where small steps can lead to meaningful and lasting change. If you’re looking for someone who will listen with compassion and guide you with practical tools, I’d be honored to walk alongside you in this process.

Hi — hola. I’m Andrea Gonzalez, LCSW, and I’m really glad you’re here. I’ve spent years supporting youth and adults—and trauma has shaped me, too. I know how it can wire your nervous system toward overthinking, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and feeling “never good enough.” I share this only to say: I understand from the inside, and I have been there where you are. My approach is warm, steady, and trauma-informed. We’ll work with your story and your nervous system using attachment-focused work, inner-child exploration, mindfulness, somatic practices, narrative work, and trauma informed care. I take a holistic view—mind, body, and heart—and, if it resonates, we can integrate spirituality and energy-based practices to deepen healing and self-trust. Together we’ll create a grounded space to unpack what’s heavy, regulate your system, and build practical tools: boundaries you can keep, kinder self-talk, and healthier relationship patterns. We’ll move at your pace while doing work that actually shifts things—so you can feel clearer, steadier, and more yourself. If you’re navigating anxiety, trauma, people-pleasing, identity shifts, or relationship patterns, I’m here to walk with you—con corazón y claridad.

My experience includes providing mental health services to individuals (adults and adolescents) and couples. I have also worked with EAP clients as well as court-ordered clients. Overall, I provide services to individuals, families, and couples. As a certified transgender specialist I work with individuals seeking guidance and support through their journey of becoming their authentic self. I also work with the L.G.B.T.I.A. community (adults, adolescents, and couples) by ensuring that they can come into a therapeutic relationship with me that is safe and free from judgment.

Greetings! I’m a Licensed Therapist (LMHC in Florida, LPC in Texas). I also hold an International Registration in Play Therapy since 2000. Throughout my career, I’ve worked in medical centers, community clinics/agencies, and private practice. My background includes both outpatient and inpatient care, working with children, adolescents, and adults in individual and group settings. I have delivered parenting group sessions on multiple occasions and created the Victim Services Program in Greater Austin Area, Texas. I also participated in a joint effort to provide immediate mental health care within pediatric primary care clinics in the Dallas-Forth Worth Area for several years. In 2005, I was closely involved in supporting displaced individuals and families who relocated to Texas due to Hurricane Katrina. I am bilingual (English-Spanish) and multicultural. With over 28 years of experience, I bring a compassionate, grounded, and practical approach to helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges. Whether you're facing anxiety, grief, work-related stress, parenting burdens, major life transitions, or struggling with self-esteem or women's issues, I offer a safe and supportive space where healing and clarity can begin. I draw from a variety of therapeutic methods—including Humanistic, Motivational Interviewing, and Faith-Based approaches. I believe each person holds the seeds of growth and change, and my role is to help you discover your inner strength, wisdom, and direction. My professional background, ongoing training, and continuous curiosity have given me a deep appreciation for the interconnectedness of all aspects of the human being. Together, we’ll focus not only on symptom relief but on building long-term resilience, insight, and tools for meaningful change.

Hi my name is Amy, and I first want to acknowledge how difficult and scary it feels to begin the process of therapy, either for the first time or starting with a new therapist. I take very seriously the enormous strength that takes and I work very hard to ensure that you feel safe and heard as we begin the therapeutic relationship. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 15 years of experience providing counseling in both inpatient and outpatient centers. I received my Master’s degree in counseling in 2008, from Webster University. I had the privilege of working in an inpatient eating disorder facility for five years and have continued that work in outpatient settings. I have a passion for connecting with teenagers, college students and career women to build a safe place with an adult where they can voice their feelings and experiences without fear of judgement. I also especially enjoy working with young adult women as they navigate their way through the process of beginning adulthood. I have experience with a variety of issues, including depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and general women’s issue. I am especially passionate about working with CPTSD and PTSD. I have received training and supervision in working with trauma as it is a highly specialized field. Trauma survivors need validation, belief, compassion and acceptance first and foremost before a trusting relationship can be established. I have working with women exiting a toxic relationship, having endured narcissistic abuse and/or infidelity (betrayal trauma) which is many times misunderstood by well-intentioned people. My approach is warm, compassionate and highly empathetic as I work to establish a safe environment for healing to take place.
