Hello! Welcome. In short, I am a bilingual, military Veteran, and former School Counselor. My former education and experiences are certainly varied, but have helped me to appreciate a varied clientele, and be open-minded, and thus prepared me to help others. I love different cultures. I work primarily with adults, couples, and older adolescents, 14-19. You'll find me to be empowering, and understanding.

Hey, most people call me Jess. I believe counseling is a mutual relationship. I view each person I see as the expert in their lives and I am in the passenger seat. My approach to counseling is holistic and trauma informed, every person is different, therefore every counseling approach does not work for everyone. I will take the time to work with you to find what works best for you. Since everyone is different; if a client and I do not mesh well, I will help them to find a counselor who works better for them.

“When you choose yourself, you show the world what you truly deserve”. Choosing ourselves is not always met with ease, acceptance, or understanding; however, it does not come without reward! Welcome to the other side of life, where healing resides. 😊 I am a self-proclaimed “hope dealer” with a passion for black culture and mental health. I gained unparalleled experience by working collaboratively with child welfare and juvenile justice systems for approximately 8 years. My experience and areas of expertise include but are not limited to, abuse and neglect, post-traumatic stress, race-related trauma and discrimination, challenging strong black woman schema, sexually harmful behaviors, mood and anxiety disorders, challenges with maintaining a positive self-image, and attachment disorders. Driven by ethics, creativity, and humor, I take pride in creating a therapeutic space that resembles a conversation at your kitchen table. Therapy should be an experience that allows you the unique opportunity to regain focus on the part of yourself oftentimes lost in the noise of others. Life, responsibility, and finding matching socks is hard enough, therapy shouldn’t be, too. At least not all the time 😉 I am beyond grateful you chose me to guide you through your healing journey. In the words of Lauryn Hill, “How you gon’ win when you ain’t right within?!” Here’s to no longer having to wonder!

Trauma hurts. It can be sudden, life-altering and overwhelming, or chronic, subtle and nearly unnoticeable, but either way it can change the way we think about others, the world, and unfortunately, ourselves. Dealing with the aftermath—changes in our relationships, lashing out toward self or others, feeling nothing and/or everything all at once—is sometimes as hard as the initial event, especially when society, friends and family and our own minds tell us to “just get over it.” Worse, sometimes we aren’t even sure where the trauma came from in the first place, leaving us confused and even feeling hopeless. If you could just “get over it,” you would, but sometimes the brain simply cannot process traumatic events without help, and this is why trauma therapy exists. :) I'm an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Texas. I've been in practice for nearly 15 years and have been doing EMDR therapy for 13 of those. I specialize in helping teens and adults process trauma of all kinds. My goal is to help my clients gain the skills needed to process and adapt to traumatic memories, and then allow them to do so in a safe environment. I teach them how to build boundaries and follow through, and to treat themselves with self-compassion rather than judgment and harsh expectations. Trauma doesn’t have to ruin (or run) your life. If you’re hurting, please know I’d be happy to help in any way I can.

Hello! My name is Jennifer, and I am a therapist currently practicing in Texas (LPC) and Ohio (LPCC). I studied at Wright State University, earning my M.S. in Clinical Mental Health in 2013.

If you’re ready to move forward and create lasting change, I’m here to help.

Life can feel overwhelming, and sometimes it’s hard to share those feelings with the people closest to us. Past experiences often have a way of creeping into the present—maybe you’ve wondered why you react a certain way or find yourself repeating patterns that don’t serve you. Together, we can get to the root of these struggles, work on healing the past, and create a more balanced present. Reaching out for help can feel intimidating, but you’ve already taken that first step by being here. Give yourself grace as you move through this decision. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you can begin your journey of self-discovery and healing. I take a holistic, client-centered approach to therapy. Just as no two days are the same, no two clients are the same. I believe you are the expert in your life—you may not feel like you have the answers right now, but together, we’ll find what works best for you.

I am here and I am listening. I also am a Pastoral counselor, integrating biblical Christian principles into our therapeutic journey if you choose to do so.

I am a psychotherapist specializing in cognitive behavioral therapy. I believe that our thoughts produce our feelings and the feelings produce behavior. Getting in touch with what we are perceiving about a situation can be altered by knowing the 10 cognitive distortions in our thinking and reframing them to be rational and produce a healthier behavior. I also work with life transitions with older adults.

Welcome to M.A.D. Therapy, LLC! I am Misty Annette Diaz, and we’re all M.A.D. here. You are no longer alone because I am here to join you. I guide my clients out of survival mode and into the present moment as your co-pilot. As a doctoral student, helping relationships thrive is my ultimate goal. The most important relationship is with ourselves. As a Parkland Hospital "county baby” native Dallasite, I returned home after my military retirement to heal my city.

Hello and welcome! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with specialized training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and EMDR. I work with clients navigating trauma, PTSD, and anxiety, and I have a passion for supporting women’s mental health as well. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where you feel truly seen and understood. Together, we’ll explore your strengths, honor your unique needs, and walk side by side on your path toward healing and growth.

My focus is reconciliation. Healing is often achieved through us becoming reconciled with self and/or others. It can be a process that allows us to identify and modify our thoughts and behaviors. We are all a work in progress and rightly so as circumstances are constantly changing. I believe that each person should have an opportunity to express themselves in a safe, nurturing, judgement free zone. As we seek to gain an understanding of self and others, often we experience a shift in our processing. If you are stuck or it feels like you are spinning out of control like a hamster on a wheel, let’s talk about “it”.

You do not have to struggle with your thoughts and emotions in silence. A peaceful life is possible no matter what the surrounding circumstances are. We are mostly troubled by our perceptions of the situations around us, not by the situations themselves. Sometimes, our thoughts are the scary part of our story, not our reality. And even when reality gets harsh, our thoughts and the way we see this reality will determine how we feel about it and how much we suffer. I am an LPC who practices mostly cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). I share the tools that are not only evidence-based and supported by extensive research but also that I've seen work with me and my clients/patients. Working on our thoughts and behaviors will affect every aspect of our lives, and relationships. We do not have to be a hostage to our unhelpful thoughts, we have tools to work on that. Anxiety, depression, PTSD, OCD, and relationship troubles are only some of many examples where this kind of therapy can help, and I would like to be that therapist who can help you achieve that change in your life.
