I want to personally welcome you to a space where healing, growth, and transformation are not only possible; but expected. With over 25 years of experience in the mental health field, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside individuals from all walks of life through some of their most challenging, yet defining, moments. As a licensed clinical counselor for the past 7 years, a behavior analyst for 11 years, and a professional counselor for 15, I’ve devoted my life to helping others reclaim their strength and find meaning in the midst of difficulty. My counseling approach is rooted in empathy, shaped by experience, and guided by evidence. I combine cognitive and behavioral strategies with a solution-focused mindset; always working with you to uncover what’s working, what’s not, and how to move forward in a way that feels true to your goals and values. Together, we’ll develop practical, real-life strategies that bring relief, build resilience, and help you feel more like yourself again. In addition to my clinical work, I bring 22 years of experience as a professional educator. This has taught me how to meet people exactly where they are; with compassion, clarity, and the belief that knowledge can be a powerful force in the healing process. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, I want you to know: change is possible. And you don’t have to do it alone. If you’re ready to take the first step, I’d be honored to walk that journey with you.

“Pain insists upon being attended to. God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our consciences, but shouts in our pains. It is his megaphone to rouse a deaf world.” — C.S. Lewis. I believe we all have the ability to heal and transform our lives - and we all have a unique path to get us there. Let’s discover your deepest truths together so that your heart and mind may be renewed and you might live more abundantly. If you're willing to do some work, I will work hard to create a safe space for you, and we can collaborate on this journey together. I have Master's degrees in Counseling and Religious Studies, so I can incorporate spiritual guidance into counseling if you would like(completely optional). I also have training in Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) and worked previously as a hospital chaplain which was an incredible experience. However, I'm proud to say that I have formed wonderful relationships with clients of all bends, and even of no particular faith background. I have respect for all faiths and traditions as long as they are life-giving. "You shall know [Your] truth, and it shall set you free."

My name is Josalynn Cartagena and I am an LPC. I graduated from CA-CREP accredited Sam Houston State University in 2018 in school counseling. After graduating, I began working in public education as a middle and high school counselor. I also worked for a tutoring company doing behavioral coaching for youth and for another private practice seeing clients of all ages. In 2023, I started my own bilingual virtual private practice, Sol Shines On, PLLC to help people find hope and feel valued, heard and understood to discover a better outcome for their life and future. I use the modalities of CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), Person Centered Theory and EMDR to process negative memories. I am constantly striving to grow myself with continued education, certifications and specialties to expand my knowledge as a counselor in ways I can continue to help you grow.

Welcome! I'm Tiffany Newkirk. I applaud you taking the first step towards bettering your mental health because, let's be honest - starting therapy can be empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns related to anxiety, depression, and/or self-care. I focus on helping clients develop assertive communication & boundaries with themselves and those around them that can help improve their 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 enjoy working together with clients to help the find peace in their lives. We all encounter struggles throughout our lives and sometimes we need to process our situations with a trusted individual so we can recover and experience the fullness of our lives.

As a licensed clinical social worker specializing in Cognitive Behavioral Theray (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Person-Centered Therapy, and trauma-informed care, I am passionate about helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with confidence and resilience. I work with clients facing a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, and life transitions. My approach is client-centered, emphasizing a collaborative, empathetic, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel safe to explore their experiences and work toward meaningful change. With a focus on strengths, empowerment, and practical solutions, I help clients identify and build on their existing resources to achieve their goals. In addition to utilizing SFBT’s future-oriented methods to create rapid, actionable solutions, I integrate trauma-informed care to ensure a sensitive, respectful approach for those healing from past trauma. This holistic, empathetic framework allows me to meet clients where they are and provide the support they need to foster self-awareness, healing, and personal growth. The impact of my work extends beyond short-term problem-solving; it is about empowering clients to make lasting, positive changes that improve their overall well-being. Through our work together, clients develop the skills to better manage stress, improve their relationships, and build resilience, leading to more fulfilling lives. Whether you’re facing specific challenges or seeking personal growth, I am here to support you on your journey toward healing, self-discovery, and lasting change.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Professional Counsellor (LPC) based in Texas with 13 years of professional work experience. My professional journey started helping people with functional diversity, college students, and the LBGTQ population. I have dedicated my time to working with couples and families on issues of family changes, divorce, domestic violence, parenting, and grief. I see clients in individual therapy with learning disability, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder, and posttraumatic stress disorder. I work with people to help them to discover their potential and build resilience. I have mediated group therapy sessions to include life skills, anger management, stress management, adjustment to changes, and parenting skills. I also served our community by working with children and families with different diagnoses in a health center. I used Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Play therapy, Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, Family Therapy, Behavioral Therapy, and Humanistic Therapy. The approach used is tailored based on your needs. I believe in resilience and that no matter the most difficult circumstances, people can transform, get up, reinvent themselves, and move forward. The answers and solutions are born from within you and all the experiences you have overcome, making you a strong human being. I want to be that guide who helps you see those answers and solutions in times of pain and need to create resilience and empowerment.

No matter what age, race, creed or status, healing comes from the support of someone being able to help you take the very first step to recovery. My areas of competence include individual and group counseling with a special interest in youth and early adulthood.
