I named my practice without judgment therapy because shame is one of the biggest barriers to people starting therapy and I wanted to combat that before people even do their first session. My passion is compassion and my aim is collaborative problem-solving to get you better for good. Don’t suffer in silence any longer. Book now and you won’t regret it.

Hello, I’m Lori. Life at times can bring up intense emotions that are challenging to navigate. Having a space to express these feelings without fear of judgment can be incredibly beneficial.

I have experience working with clients who have faced trauma, PTSD, depressive thoughts, grief, anxiety, relationship issues, substance abuse, and self-esteem challenges. Life is a journey filled with unexpected bumps, and I encourage you to reach out so we can work together on this adventure.

Most people who reach out to me are tired. Tired of holding it together, tired of explaining themselves, tired of feeling like the version of them that shows up to work or family dinner isn't the real one. If that sounds familiar, you're in the right place. I'm a licensed professional counselor working with adults across Texas and Colorado on anxiety, depression, stress and burnout, relationship strain, life transitions, and the old stuff that keeps resurfacing at inconvenient moments. You don't need to have it organized before you get here, and you don't need a diagnosis or a crisis to deserve support. We'll figure out together what's actually going on and where to start. Expect warmth, honesty, and a real conversation rather than someone nodding at you from across the screen.

Hello! I have been blessed to experience life through many meaningful roles, including being a daughter, wife, mother, Gigi, and friend. Each of these experiences has shaped the way I connect with others and has given me a deeper understanding of the joys, challenges, responsibilities, and transitions that people experience throughout life. I truly enjoy building genuine relationships and creating a space where people feel comfortable, valued, and heard. One of the things I love most about counseling is getting to know each person’s unique story and helping them identify their needs, goals, and strengths. I believe every individual deserves support, encouragement, and compassion as they navigate life’s challenges. My approach is centered on meeting people where they are while helping them discover practical ways to grow, heal, and move forward. As a Christian, my faith plays an important role in the way I view people and relationships. I believe every person has value, purpose, and the ability to grow through life’s experiences. I genuinely love people and feel honored to walk alongside clients as they work toward healing, clarity, confidence, and positive change in their lives.

My path into counseling began in 2006, working as an addiction counselor in the prison system. Since then, I've worked in a variety of settings, including private practice, psychiatric hospitals, and intensive outpatient programs. These experiences have given me the opportunity to work with people from many different backgrounds and life circumstances, while reinforcing a belief that lasting change happens through connection, self-awareness, and authenticity. Clients often describe me as warm, genuine, and easy to talk to, while also being direct enough to gently challenge unhelpful patterns when they arise. I believe therapy should feel like a real conversation, not a clinical checklist. While I draw from evidence-based approaches such as CBT, mindfulness, and narrative therapy, I also believe growth happens when we slow down, reconnect with ourselves, and pay attention to what truly matters. My love of nature and the outdoors has shaped both my life and my work, and I value helping clients find greater balance, self-acceptance, and alignment with their values. My goal is not to fix people, but to help them recognize their strengths, trust themselves, and move forward with greater confidence, clarity, and purpose.

I have a background in crisis intervention and working with people at different levels of care who are dealing with anxiety and mood-related challenges. I primarily use DBT and ACT, and I like to keep things practical by helping people build coping skills, make sense of what they’re experiencing, and feel more steady and empowered in their everyday lives. In the room, I show up as warm, down-to-earth, and often a little humorous. I’ll meet you where you’re at, but I’ll also gently challenge you when it feels helpful. I really believe people are the authors of their own stories, even when earlier chapters haven’t felt like their choice. My goal is to support you in writing what comes next in a way that feels more aligned, manageable, and meaningful. I also feel it is important to stay mindful of the different identities, experiences, and privileges we all carry, and how those shape the way we move through the world and the healing process.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with 20 years of experience — and a woman who has navigated midlife, reinvention, and the seasons of life that quietly change you. That lived experience shapes every session I offer. I specialize in working with women who are strong on the outside but exhausted on the inside — women navigating menopause, identity shifts, heartbreak, dating, and the complicated feeling of standing at a crossroads wondering who they are becoming. I'm warm and direct. I'll hold space when you need to be heard and gently challenge you when you're ready to grow. Clients tell me they feel safe being real with me from the very first conversation — and that they leave sessions feeling clearer, lighter, and more like themselves. My approach blends evidence-based therapy with mind-body practices rooted in mindfulness, breathwork, and somatic awareness — because healing lives in the body too, not just the mind. If you've been carrying something alone for too long or simply know that something needs to shift — I'm here. Just come as you are.

I work with adults who are experiencing OCD, PTSD, trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, parenting struggles, life transitions, and relationship frustrations. I offer a warm, welcoming environment for clients and I am neurodivergent and LGBTQ+ supporting. I firmly believe that our society has systemic oppression baked in and I aim to practice cultural humility in my work. My approach is trauma informed, collaborative, and grounded in respect for autonomy and lived experience. Fear of judgment from a therapist is a common concern and while I might challenge certain narratives or beliefs, I draw my responses from a place of curiosity. Sometimes I hear people say, "...I know that sounds crazy" or they apologize for the words they use. I want therapy to be a place where you can show up as you are. I am difficult to offend and I am not listening to your words so I can judge how you express yourself. The important thing is for you to just say what you need to and we will go from there. Please note: I am unable to prescribe medication, assess for ADHD/ADD, or write ESA letters. Many times, a psychiatrist can help with these pieces.

As a woman of color and Army combat veteran, I understand how difficult it can be to ask for help. I know from personal experience that seeking support can feel vulnerable, and at the same time, it can be one of the most supportive and life-giving steps a person can take. As a clinician, I prioritize my own wellness and healing because I believe it helps me remain present, grounded, and effective in holding space for my clients. It is an honor to be invited into someone’s healing and growth journey, and I do not take that responsibility lightly. Outside of my clinical work, I enjoy watching football (go Chiefs), attending festivals, and engaging in arts, crafts, and DIY projects. I also enjoy trying new food spots and taking time to rest and recharge. I view my work as a calling rather than just a job, and I am deeply grateful to do what I love.

Hi there! My name is Chinh. If you’ve reached my page, chances are that your heart has been broken, you probably just had the umpteenth argument with your significant other, or maybe you’re stuck in a frustrating cycle of self-doubt, low self-esteem, and overwhelming thoughts that never seem to let up. Maybe it’s all of the above! Whatever brought you here — I’m glad you came. Let’s work through it together. I grew up in a culture where mental illness wasn’t something you talked about. Emotional struggles were ignored, hidden, or minimized. I was taught that sharing feelings was a weakness — that being strong meant staying silent. That experience shaped me. Today, I’m passionate about helping people unlearn those harmful beliefs and start living with more freedom, clarity, and emotional honesty. I want to help end the stigma associated with mental illness. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Texas, Louisiana, and New Mexico, and I hold a Ph.D. in Counseling. I’ve spent years working with adults, couples, and families — helping people reconnect with themselves and each other. My approach is strength-based and holistic: I believe healing doesn’t mean “fixing” you — it means understanding you, supporting you, and helping you build the life you want. Therapy can be hard work, but you don't have to do it alone. I offer a space where you can show up exactly as you are — without judgment. Let's rewrite your story together.

If you’re tired of overthinking every move, replaying old wounds, or feeling like anxiety, anger, or shame is making life more difficult — you’re in the right place. I can help. You’ve been working so hard just to feel okay — and you deserve more than okay. You deserve more than to just survive. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor specializing in anxiety, trauma, and shame. I help people cut through the noise, understand what’s actually driving their patterns, and build real tools to change them. No fluff, just honest, practical therapy that gets you somewhere. I am genuine and relatable to everyone I meet, down to earth with a sense of humor. Twenty-two years of marriage and raising six kids has allowed me to see real life up close, and I bring that experience into every session. I’m not here to just listen and nod. I’m here to help you figure out what’s getting in the way and give you tools to overcome it.

I'm Kemi, a Licensed Professional Counselor who believes real change starts with feeling truly heard. Since middle school, I've been the person others turn to for encouragement, so becoming a therapist felt less like a career change and more like coming home to it. I bring warmth, honesty, and a steady presence into every session, paired with clinical training in CBT, Internal Family Systems, and culturally responsive care. My goal isn't to hand you a script — it's to help you see your own strength clearly enough to use it.

I'm Brandon, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas. I work with people who look like they have it together on the outside but feel lost, empty, and exhausted on the inside. The dependable one. The one everyone leans on. You've read the books, you've tried harder, and you're still stuck in the same loops — because information is not transformation. I believe you're not broken. You're a masterpiece that got covered up, and my job is to help you uncover what's already there.

With 25 years of clinical experience, I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where adult clients feel heard, understood, and empowered in their healing process. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, and trauma using evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). Our work starts with individualized treatment planning and building coping strategies, followed by exploring and working through unhelpful thoughts and past experiences that continue to influence current emotions, behaviors, and relationships. This process supports greater insight, emotional regulation, and meaningful, lasting change.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
