Hi! Hola, I’m Israel.
Do you ever feel like no one listens to what you have to say or that no one understands you; especially your parents? Not to worry, that’s where I come in. I enjoy working with youth in helping them understand their emotions or how to get along with their parents, teachers and/or friends. Sometimes it can be difficult to express our emotions, talk to people or just navigate this hectic young life. I've been working with young people and helping them find their way for 12 years. It may take a few sessions; however, we will get there together.
Let’s work together!

The best part of being a licensed professional counselor in Texas is the opportunity I've had over the years to help lots of folks deal with tough problems like anger, stress, social anxiety, cheating in relationships, as well as struggles with sex and porn addiction. My goal is to help you find your inner strength, bounce back from hard times, and build better relationships.
Are you getting angry more often and have trouble getting along with coworkers? Do you feel tired all the time, so you don't seem to enjoy things like you did before, and now spend more time alone? Are you and your spouse fighting a lot and thinking about divorce? Do you do things that seem like a quick fix but don’t really make life better? Maybe you just want to relax more, lower your stress, and feel healthier?
No matter what’s going on in your life, choosing online therapy shows that you want to feel better and understand yourself more. Also, online therapy makes it easy to get the support you need on your schedule in the comfort and safety of your home.

Everyone needs assistance and guidance from time to time. I have spent the majority of my career in mental health working with the homeless population, youth, teens and individuals with severe mental health concerns. I have helped individuals to navigate a variety of issues. I am comfortable working with individuals who are on the Autism Spectrum, the LGBTQ+ population, navigating trauma related issues, anxiety, depression, and management of interpersonal relationships. I believe people should be allowed to grow and progress from whatever type of issues they are struggling with while being treating with compassion, respect and care. Each client should leave a session with tools they can implement in their own lives, even if that is just the release of being able to talk about their troubles or concerns. I approach therapy with a variety of modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Sometimes our emotions just become too much for us to deal with on our own. I believe my sessions are compassionate, yet challenging enough to help you grow. My experience is not only academic but personal as well. I hope that you will benefit from speaking with me and I can help you enrich your life and reach your full potential. At this time, most of my availability is on weekends due to other obligations, but I am hoping to expand availability soon. Please be mindful of this is you agree to connect with me as a therapist.

I support individuals, couples, and families in understanding how traits associated with ADHD, Autism, Traumatic Brain Injury, and other neurodivergent conditions impact the neurodivergent individual and the dynamics of their relationships with partners, family members, coworkers, and classmates. I encourage my clients to identify their life purpose based on their values, strengths, and lived experiences, while providing actionable feedback through psychoeducation, insights, communication tools, and coping strategies tailored to their specific needs. My goal is to help them cultivate a life that is as unique and meaningful as they are.
I work with various types of relationships to enhance communication, set goals, and prevent or resolve misunderstandings and breaches of trust, while helping to rebuild confidence in one another. This includes reinforcing relationship foundations and establishing shared meaning and purpose. Additionally, I enjoy assisting new couples in developing healthy communication skills and trust to strengthen their connection and foster resilient, lasting relationships.
When working with children and teens, I adopt a systems-based approach to empower parents in supporting their children. I provide insights into how a neurodivergent mind perceives the world and the myriad demands placed on children today, regardless of whether they are neurotypical, neurodiverse, or anywhere along the spectrum. Drawing on my experience as an autistic parent with ADHD and as a caregiver to my own neurodivergent child, I empathize with families as they navigate the challenges of providing comprehensive support for their children while also prioritizing their own well-being.

I help men, women, and children work through different struggles of life, such as, school, work, and relationships.

I will listen to you and guide you through self reflection to gain awareness and insight in identifying the causes to your struggles.
Everyone needs a therapist! Everyone experiences life troubles and difficulties. Getting through life is about the relationships we build and the most important one is the one with yourself because YOU ARE IMPORTANT and YOU MATTER! In our session together, you will be met with genuiness, care, and compassion to provide a safe place for healing and growth. You deserve this for yourself! I look forward to working with you and unveiling your brilliance and strength.

Arlington, TX - Accepting clients in TX
My name is Brittney and I live here in Texas. I grew up in Texas and have lived her my entire life.
I began my journey as a therapist in 2016 and love what I do.
I work with pre-teens, teens, college students and all age range adults. We all go through difficult times in life and can find ourselves in the need for extra support. While we may experience similarities in what we go through, the way it affects us and the way we work through struggles can look very different from person to person. I want to be able to support you alongside your journey in the way that fits you best. I am trained in several different approaches, and have found that once size does not fit all. My focus is on you as the client, because you know yourself best. Through getting to know you, we can collaboratively work together to establish goals to work towards along the way.

My belief is that counseling is a journey we travel together. My role as a therapist is to provide a safe, trusting environment in which clients are respected and valued as significant contributors to their process of healing and growth. I strongly believe that you should feel comfortable with the therapist you choose, and hopeful about your contribution to the process. My approach is focused on your possibilities; possibilities for healing, growth, change, learning, insight, and understanding. Throughout this therapeutic relationship, we will work on building upon trust, integrity, and acceptance as we navigate through this process together. I want you to leave feeling equipped and empowered to manage your life once again.

Round Rock, TX - Accepting clients in TX
I've wanted to be a therapist since I was 9 years old. It's been a lifelong dream that I was able to achieve. My first experience with mental health is in a community mental health facility. I learned lots about major mental illness and skills training. I believe this time developed me into a therapist that "teaches" my client how to help themselves and how to relate to people on a personal level.
My passions outside of work are DIY projects in my new home, crocheting, camping and my pug. I love reading romance novels. I am also a wife, mother and grandmother. I am a stepmother, bio-mother, mother of twins, mother of boys, mother of girls and have a variety of ages.

My name is Elvira Aleman Vaughan. I am a Christian counselor who works with adults who have depression/anxiety. If you prefer talk therapy I'll use CBT to help you get to the root of the issue.
Or if you are open to trying a proven technique that is less conventional, I will use EMDR to help you heal and move forward.
