CORP CHRISTI, TX - Accepting clients in TX

My professional experience working within counseling has allowed me to become skilled and comfortable in delivering solution focused therapy. My theoretical orientation aligns with Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy, however, I hold a strong belief that a counselor should possess technical eclecticism and be comfortable and well-versed in many theoretical orientations and interventions in an effort to accommodate the varying and diverse individual needs of clients. With that goal in mind, I continue to stay immersed in other styles such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Narrative Therapy, to name a few, while also maintaining a Humanistic approach at the core of my counseling approach. When working with couples and families, I utilize Family Systems Therapy, Structural Therapy, Strategic Therapy and Transgenerational Therapy approaches as treatment modalities. I am also Gottman Level I certified and enjoy utilizing the Gottman Approach when working with couples.

My name is Mark Chaney. I provide counseling and counseling-related services for children, adolescents, adults, and families together. I have 15 + years of accumulative training and experience in the fields of mental health, trauma, domestic violence, foster care and adoption. Some clients I see are experiencing short-term stressors while others are experiencing longer-term mental health disturbances. For individual therapy, I generally treat adults and adolescents ages 12 and older. For children younger than 12, or for adolescents otherwise not appropriate for telehealth, It may be recommended to address concerns in the form of family therapy. I use an integrated model that build upon a persons existing beliefs, strategies and virtues, and I work with individuals and families experiencing a wide array of presenting concerns. I am a life long student of philosophy. I enjoy reading, writing, painting, drawing, sculpture and playing music. I find peace in the outdoors and camping, inspiration in community collaboration, and I am passionate about psychotherapy. It has been my great privilege to walk with people as they unlock the resources they need to stabilize and grow. I believe that community stigma around mental health is reduced as individuals call on the courage to seek help. "The only normal people are people you dont know very well" -Alfred Adler.

I personally know what this feels like and how difficult it can be. I was blessed to have people in my life to help me during my "trying times." Honestly, I still do. I am Bi-lingual, (Spanish) and have been practicing for 13 years. I have worked with teenagers, adults, and couples. I do not work with children due to my lack of training. My experience entails working with addictions and various disorders. I believe in both therapy and medication and am cultural competent to utilize as resources. My heart is working with trauma and am certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I believe that my job is to have my clients get to the point where they are no longer needing my services. That's right, to get myself fired! I believe that we were created in the image of the Creator which means the ability to love and be loved and to have the freedom to make wise decisions which help navigate us through this journey we are on.

Life can bring challenging chapters in the narrative of our life. Processing and moving forward from these struggles is possible. You have taken a significant step in reaching out. On my journey of healing, I have faced losses that shook my sense of self and I had to move through experiences I did not believe I would have the strength to recover from. I am a person who is comfortable with the uncomfortable. In fact, because I have had to work through most of my dark times alone, I seek to be a support for individuals when challenges arise. A guiding goal for me is to reduce the number of individuals who have to mirror my lived experience. I am an advocate for expressive arts, strength-based, and body-centered approaches. I have over 20 years combined experience working with children and adolescents, as an educator, artistic director, and counselor. I am honored to be a resource of support for youth and adults experiencing grief and processing traumatic experiences.

Hi, I'm Heather! I have been a licensed mental health specialist for a few years now, but I have been doing counseling in hospital and end of life setting for more than ten years. I spent my first career as a chaplain, where I enjoyed working with people from all and no religious background tap into their innate strength in times of crisis. I am committed to helping people with a background of religious trauma and am a committed ally in working with LGBTQIA+ clients. As a therapist I believe I can help you on your path of self discovery and growing in the strengths you already have. I am all about self care and believe that therapy can be an essential component of everyone's self care repertoire.

Temple, TX - Accepting clients in TX

“More than just listening—real tools for real change.” Many clients come to me after feeling frustrated with past therapy experiences where they were heard, but not helped. My goal is for you to leave each session with practical strategies you can actually use to make things better in your life. I work with a wide range of concerns, and I bring particular passion and expertise in supporting the LGBTQ+ community. Whether in individual, couples, or group therapy, I strive to create a collaborative, affirming space where meaningful growth can happen. I’ll show you how to identify and challenge the “stinkin’ thinkin’” that often fuels depression, anxiety, substance use, and even conflict in relationships. My approach goes beyond just listening—I’ll help you build the insight and tools you need to create meaningful change. Many clients have told me I’m the first therapist who’s ever really helped them. Let’s Get to Work—Together So many clients have told me about past therapy experiences where the therapist “just listened” and didn’t offer anything useful to actually make things better. I get it. You want more than a sounding board—you want real tools and strategies that help you feel better and live better. That’s exactly what I aim to offer.

CORP CHRISTI, TX - Accepting clients in TX

I'm Dr. Laurie. I have a PhD in clinical and Counseling Psychology. I have a Master's Degree in Counseling Psychology. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor, Licensed Sex Offender Treatment Provider Supervisor, Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor, and Substance Abuse Professional. I am an Ordained Reverend, Non-Denominational, and have half of a Master's in Divnity completed. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Professional Aeronautics and Aviation Safety. I see clients of any age from two years and up. I also see any mental or behavioral illness. I strive to benefit my clients by helping them recognize feelings, behaviors, and patterns that are causing distress. Usually, they are learned during early childhood and continually get worse throughout life if not dealt with. I also process past trauma in any shape. This allows clients to change things in their lives that are toxic to them, gain better self-esteem, and be rid of the problems they are seeking counseling for.

Lockhart, TX - Accepting clients in TX

Hi, I'm Aaron. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) working out of the state of Texas. I've been in the behavioral health field for about 12 years helping people of all ages overcome mental health struggles and issues with substance use and process addictions. I was called to this work because my own struggles with depression and substance abuse, and, though I had to struggle in order to get where I am, I feel so grateful for my experiences. I have a passion for mindfulness and compassion in my work and like to incorporate breathing techniques and music whenever possible because, frankly, these are things that have worked well for me! I have also adopted Polyvagal Therapy- a cutting-edge modality in our field- as one of my go-to approaches. Polyvagal therapy will help you to understand the power of the mind-body connection while improving your relationship with yourself and the world around you. I'm also a huge proponent of yoga and Brazilian jiu jitsu as healing arts and would encourage ANYONE to try them out.

Texas City, TX - Accepting clients in TX

I am deeply passionate about supporting individuals on their journeys toward healing and self-discovery, especially within communities that have historically been underserved or overlooked. My path to becoming a therapist has been shaped by diverse roles, including work as a school teacher, parole officer, child protective services investigator, state benefits worker, and therapy aide for individuals with brain injuries. These experiences have not only refined my skills but also grounded me in the importance of empathy, resilience, and connection within the community. In our work together, no topic is too small or insignificant. My priority is to create a space where you feel truly seen, heard, and understood—where your unique experiences and challenges are met with respect and care. I believe therapy is a collaborative process, and I’m here to walk alongside you, offering support as you explore your goals, strengths, and concerns. I use a flexible, eclectic counseling style that draws from various therapeutic approaches to meet your needs. Together, we’ll create a plan that feels authentic and effective for you. Our sessions will move at a pace that feels right for you, providing time for reflection, growth, and healing. It’s an honor to support you on this path, and I look forward to walking it with you.

North Richland Hills, TX - Accepting clients in TX

I’m a therapist who values self-awareness, empathy, honesty, and accountability—both in my sessions and in my personal life. I truly appreciate those moments when client and therapist connect on a shared experience because, let’s be honest, most of us have been there a time or two. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe to share your experiences—a place where you are heard and validated without judgment or shame. Above all else, I want you to feel seen and supported as a human being.

Accepting clients in TX

I am a Clinical Social Worker and have been in the social work field for 23 years. I have worked in many different types of settings throughout my career and loved all of them. Many times I'm told "I don't know how you do what you do" and I always say, it's a gift, a calling and yes some of my jobs have been very difficult... however, I get to see the light at the end of the tunnel with my clients and this far exceeds the tough stuff, making it all worth every effort. My therapy background includes working for a homeless shelter and a transitional living facility for mentally ill both in New York. The remainder of my career is in Texas working for a federal prison for women, a school district for ages 3-18 to include home visits with parents, teaching parenting classes, Children's Advocacy Center for sexually and physically abused children and working with their families, along with the past two years online therapy for anyone in need.

Highland Village, TX - Accepting clients in TX

I specialize in brief collaborative therapy where we look at current issues, how you cope, how you learned the coping skills and alternatives solutions. We will look at your self-care including spirituality and how to improve your self care if needed. Weekly assignment tasks related to your short term goals will be agreed upon. We will work together to learn and understand where you are now and how the past has impacted you. Engaging in therapy can be anxiety provoking, exciting and freeing. If you are willing to work on our mutually agreed upon assignment between our counseling sessions, you will find we make progress. I worked in criminal justice prior to being licensed in Michigan where I grew up and studied. Upon moving to Chicagoland, I worked 10 years with a crisis response team and an employee assistance program. This is where I learned to develop skills to drill down into client issues and work with the client to reduce discomfort and improve coping skills. Our counseling sessions did not last beyond 6-8 meetings. I moved to Texas in 2003 and since then have continued to work on crisis teams and with military members/spouses on installations. My practice has been focused on supporting couples communications; life transitions including grief/loss, career transitions, parenting skills and integrating/applying client's spiritual practice into every day life. Clients describe me as safe to talk with about difficult topics; active and contributing to the dialog; creative in opening up behavioral and cognitive options.
