I have always had a heart for helping others. After earning my bachelor's degree, I began working for a large, community-based mental health center as a case manager assisting individuals dealing with severe mental health conditions and at-risk of or currently experiencing homelessness. Through this role, I saw over and over again the underlying issues impacting their lives. There often would be years of untreated trauma, unhelpful coping strategies, like alcohol or substance use that stacked onto their challenges, difficulties with accessing care, and layers of shame and guilt that made the recovery journey harder. This work shaped my direction and specialities in the counseling field. After graduating with my master's, I helped build a therapy program in that setting for co-occurring mental health conditions, addiction, and trauma history. Later, I worked in a crisis residential unit, an equine-assisted therapy program, and hospital systems providing mental health and addictions counseling, trauma therapy, and crisis intervention. I am trained in Critical Incident Stress Management and Disaster Response and am a member of the medical reserve corps, "a group of highly trained citizens dedicated to supporting the county during public health emergencies or natural disasters." I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor in Texas with over 11 years of counseling experience. During the pandemic, I launched my private practice while also doing crisis counseling and disaster response for the Disaster Distress Helpline. Currently, I provide telehealth counseling services for ages 18+ throughout the state of Texas dealing with stressors, work-life balance challenges, life transitions, depression, anxiety, and support with maintaining sobriety.

I have additional training/specialization in grief and trauma issues, (Certified Clinical Trauma Professional).

As a college professor with over 15 years of teaching experience in psychology, criminal justice, grief and loss, and addiction courses, my counseling includes evidence-based approaches to increasing coping skills and reducing common symptoms such as anxiety and depression.

I’m Micheal Franklin, and my journey into therapy began in a blue-collar family where my relatives worked in textile mills, battery plants, and furniture factories. Growing up, I aspired to carve a different path, aiming to be the first in my family to earn a college degree. I graduated from Western Piedmont Community College in Drug and Alcohol Technology and earned an Associate in Arts in 1996. I then continued my education at Gardner-Webb University, obtaining my Bachelor’s in Science in Human Services. Recognizing that the job market wouldn’t provide enough financial stability, I joined the Marines in 1998. During my service, I got married and welcomed a baby boy, which motivated me to seek part-time work with troubled adolescents and teens facing addiction issues. After leaving the Marines in 2003, I worked in a group home for adolescents and later became a Prevention Supervisor for adolescent substance use treatment. I also served as the lead treatment therapist for a Men's Intensive Outpatient Program at the Cognitive Connection in Hickory, NC.

My name is Elizabeth and I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in the states of Texas and Arizona. I am also a certified school counselor and transitioned to full-time mental health counseling after working as a high school counselor. I have been working as a counselor for 10 years, primarily in the school setting. I helped my students with issues such as family problems, academic struggles, relationship issues, trauma/abuse, ADHD, autism, LGBT-issues, depression, anxiety, perfectionism, grief, and suicidal ideation. Before working as a counselor, I was an elementary teacher for 6 years. I have experience working with adults and adolescents. I love seeing my clients understand themselves better and improve their mental health. I feel comfortable counseling people from a variety of backgrounds, especially those whose backgrounds are different than my own. My entire professional career has been spent with a primarily Hispanic population, but I am comfortable with other cultures, as well. I am a big fan of CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and Solutions-focused therapy, but I try to cater my counseling to each client, so I often incorporate different counseling philosophies as needed. I believe my clients are the experts on their own lives and I want to work with them to improve their contentment, coping skills, and mental health. I believe it is important and beneficial to have a nonjudgmental, unbiased person to talk to. This is one of the best parts of counseling. I often use humor to lighten the mood when counseling. I find this helps grow my relationships with my clients. Congratulations on making the first step towards getting help. I would love to work with you.

Hello! My name is Christina. I have been providing therapy professionally for about 9 years. Whatever you might be facing, I hope that I can help you gain control of your thoughts, actions and environment so you can feel better and reach the goals you have for yourself. In a session with me we will focus our time together on your needs and finding therapeutic approaches that best suit your personality and life. I spent most of counseling years working with women and couples. My specific training has centered around eating disorders, anxiety and depression. In school I studied Marriage and Family Therapy, which is an area of passion for me. Personally, I am a wife, mother and professional who knows firsthand how challenging it can be to manage "it all". If you are feeling hopeless, uncertain or lost in life, I hope you will reach out.

Since becoming a counselor, I have worked in a variety of community counseling settings. I have worked with clients from ages 3 through 80 and with individuals, couples, and families. With that breadth of experience, very little shocks or surprises me and I have gotten a pretty good sense of where the types of counseling that play to my strengths as a counselor overlap with the types of counseling that are helpful for my clients. This sense (along with learning about lots and lots of research into what helps people find and maintain mental health) has led to the following guiding principles that shape all the counseling I do: 1) The client is always in charge. I know a lot of things but you will always be the one who decides what you want to get out of counseling, how we work towards that goal, whether or not what we’re doing seems to be working, and when we’re done. 2) Change and health happen through relationships. No matter what you come in for, there are always relational implications of change and relational factors that contribute to whatever it is that you came to counseling to change. 3) Counseling should be efficient. Counseling has significant costs in time and money. I think the benefits far outweigh the costs but if I can give you the benefits while helping you save on the costs then I want to do that.

I help individuals manage chronic mental health conditions, and work with those who are feeling stuck and overwhelmed in their current life situations. We will focus on managing your symptoms, and then dive deeper into addressing the root causes. We will work together on resolving these challenges to help you heal, feel more comfortable with yourself, and work towards a happier and more meaningful life.
