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.

Welcome, I am Silvia. Are you feeling overwhelmed with life's challenges, low self-esteem, relationships, or past trauma and don't know where to begin to feel better? Everyone needs to feel seen, heard, and validated. Take a moment to acknowledge you've taken the first step towards bettering your mental health because, let's be honest, starting therapy can feel empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows you to explore obstacles with concerns related to anxiety, depression, past trauma, and/or self-care. I focus on helping you develop assertive communication & boundaries with yourself and those around you that can help improve your quality of life. Counseling can foster personal development in whatever way you may be seeking and help build the life you so deeply deserve. If that's what you're looking for, I'm here when you're ready to share.

I am a board-certified, licensed professional counselor with over five years of experience providing compassionate and evidence-based therapeutic care to diverse populations, including adults, couples, seniors, children, and adolescents. My clinical expertise encompasses a range of mental health issues, including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, behavioral issues, emotional disturbances, and patterns of neglect. I earned my Master of Arts in Counseling from Webster University, which equipped me with a robust understanding of psychological principles and therapeutic practices. My extensive training has informed my work in a variety of settings, enabling me to tailor my approach to meet the unique needs of each client. With over 25 years of experience in the social services field, I have worked with individuals of all ages and backgrounds, including clients with physical and mental disabilities. This breadth of experience has provided me with a comprehensive skill set and a deep understanding of the complexities of human behavior and mental health. My extensive background allows me to assess clients' progress effectively and implement interventions that are both practical and transformative. My treatment approach is rooted in evidence-based practices, primarily Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I am dedicated to teaching clients to recognize how their thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes influence their feelings and actions. By emphasizing self-awareness and cognitive restructuring, I empower my clients to develop healthier coping strategies and improve their overall emotional well-being. I believe that my clients can overcome any obstacles in their way. With a unique perspective and extensive experience in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I have seen firsthand how evidence-based care can lead to long-lasting behavioral changes. My success in practice stems from my passion for helping clients achieve their goals through individualized treatment plans tailored to their specific needs.

Hey there! Are you feeling a little overwhelmed lately? You’re not alone. Maybe you’ve been juggling a million things, second-guessing yourself, or trying to keep everyone else happy while quietly burning out. If that sounds familiar, I see you and I’d love to help. I work with millennials, professionals and creatives who are ready to stop running on autopilot and start feeling more connected, calm, and confident in their own skin. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, going through a big life transition, struggling with boundaries, or just feeling “off,” we’ll work together to make sense of it and create space for something new. In our sessions, you can expect compassion, curiosity, and maybe even a little humor when it fits. I use an integrative approach rooted in evidence-based practices like CBT, but I also bring creativity and flexibility into the process because therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all, and neither are you. This is your space to breathe, reflect, and grow. You don’t have to have it all figured out. You just have to show up and we’ll take it from there, together.

First and foremost, I am a Christian. While my faith in God is very strong, I work within the parameters established by my clients. If they do not believe, and do not request faith-based services, this will never come up in our work together, but I hope to treat you with all the compassion that Jesus would. That was the greatest compliment I ever had from a Lesbian client, that for the first time in her life, she felt treated as Jesus would have treated her. I am a trauma survivor myself. I know the difficult road back from childhood and adult traumatic events first-hand, not just from the textbooks. I dedicated my life and 35-year career running a nonprofit serving survivors of trauma--child abuse victims, veterans, domestic violence, sexual trauma, surviving family members of homicide victims, and terroristic attacks. It is unconscionable what human beings will do to one another, and it can perpetuate for generations if you neglect your own recovery. I am also a mediator and have had the honor of reconciling many marriages--some who even came to me for divorce and custody originally, wanting to save their marriage but not knowing what else to try. I've seen healing in many generational disputes, and in interventions with families trying to get an addicted or severely mentally ill member to treatment. I do Workplace Mediation and Eldercare and Guardianship Mediation as well. Have differences in parenting? Parenting and Discipline Planning are accomplished expeditiously in mediation. Want the perfect wedding gift? Give them Pre-marital or Re-marital Mediation so they can discuss and agree on life choices together before they get married and start arguing endlessly about them.

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.

What if you could write the story of your life? The truth is, you can, you are in control of your destiny, you are writing the story of your life right now. The choices you make are directly related to the thoughts you have. That puts you in control, you have the ability to change the way you think, and when you change the way you think, you change your life. The thoughts you are thinking right now are writing the story of your life. If you are not happy with the story, you can reprogram your thoughts to change the story and write it the way you want it to go. Together you and I can work to manage the challenges you are facing today. Therapy may seem scary or even overwhelming, but with the right partner you really can change your life. Together we will explore how your thoughts and the dimensions of wellness are affecting your life and find a path to change the story of your life, to one of positive emotional and mental well-being.

Welcome! I’m Jonette Peretik, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC, NCC) and the owner of Compassion and Grace Counseling in Bossier City, Louisiana. I believe healing happens in the context of safe, supportive relationships. My background has given me a unique perspective on trauma, loss, and resilience, and I bring that into my work with individuals, couples, and families. In my practice, I focus on helping people strengthen their connections—whether that means repairing broken trust, navigating painful patterns of guilt or shame, or learning to communicate in ways that bring closeness instead of distance. I also support parents and caregivers who are balancing their own well-being while caring for children, partners, or aging loved ones. My style is compassionate, direct when needed, and deeply respectful of your values and lived experiences. I use an integrative approach that is trauma-informed and attachment-focused, blending evidence-based methods like DBT and EFT with a humanistic belief in every person’s capacity for growth. My goal is to help you align your inner world with your values, build stronger relationships, and create a life that feels meaningful and whole.

My years in the military and emergency response taught me how resilient people can be, even in their darkest moments. I help clients process what they've been through and reconnect with a sense of meaning and control in their lives. Healing isn’t a straight line—but you don’t have to walk it alone.

☕✨ Coffee & Talk: Therapy Made Simple ✨☕ If you’ve been struggling with anxiety, depression, OCD, eating disorders, trauma, addiction, or simply feeling stuck in life, you don’t have to go through it alone. Therapy is a safe space to be heard, supported, and guided toward becoming the best version of yourself. Hi, I’m Jeralyn R. Tharp, M.Ed., LPCC-S, LICDC, GAMB — a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor & Supervisor, Licensed Independent Chemical Dependency Counselor, and Gambling Specialist. With over 28 years of experience, I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals and families from many walks of life, including military personnel, veterans, and their loved ones. I believe therapy doesn’t have to feel intimidating — think of it as sitting down for a comforting cup of coffee (or tea, or even water!) and having a real conversation about what matters most to you. 🌿 What to Expect in Our Virtual Coffee & Therapy Chat: Complete your pre-admission tasks – please ensure all forms and requirements are submitted before our session. Pick your drink of choice – coffee, tea, water… or just come as you are. Find your comfortable spot – a cozy chair, your favorite corner, or anywhere you can be yourself. Join the conversation – I’ll provide the link, and together we’ll create a safe and supportive space where you can build resilience, find hope, and explore practical strategies for everyday challenges. Reaching out takes courage — and my goal is to meet you exactly where you are. Therapy is your safe place to grow, heal, and uncover strengths you may not even realize you have. So grab your mug, bring yourself (or just come as you are), and let’s begin this journey together. ☕💬
