Hello, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas. I received my master's degree from Dallas Baptist University in Counseling Psychology. I have been in the mental health field for over twenty years where I started out in psychiatric hospitals as a mental health technician, and I ended my hospital career as a Hospital Administrator. I have been a part of building some amazing clinical programs, so I know the struggles and frustrations that we all experience at some point in our life. I have been doing private practice primarily for the past 3 years and loving every moment. I really enjoy helping people through struggles at different stages of their life.

My journey into mental healthcare is deeply personal and rooted in both lived experience and resilience. I was drawn to this field through many of the challenges I have faced and overcome throughout my own life. One of the most transformative moments in my journey occurred after I acquired a disability, an experience that completely shifted my perspective on healing, vulnerability, and emotional wellness.
My personal experiences allow me to approach therapy with authenticity, compassion, and a deeper level of connection. I strive to create a therapeutic space where clients feel safe enough to be honest, explore their emotions without judgment, and move toward healing at their own pace.
Those experiences ultimately shaped not only my career path, but also the type of therapist I strive to be, which is someone who leads with empathy, values genuine human connection, and understands that healing often begins when people feel supported, empowered, and no longer alone in what they are carrying.

I enjoy working with people to help them build a strong sense of self, encourage their confidence in relationships, and help foster a sense of calm and security in their everyday life. I enjoy helping parents navigate the many challenges that come our way. I believe people seek therapy for many reasons: adjustment to a new city or life situation, feeling overwhelmed or stuck, or problems with relationships. Counseling is a process that most of us could benefit from time to time at different stages in life, as it brings an outsider's perspective to events, we are faced with in day-to-day life in a nonjudgmental way.

Hi, I’m Vesna Kresanovic, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing therapy for individuals and couples in Texas & Wisconsin. I work with people who feel overwhelmed, emotionally disconnected, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them—often after stress, trauma, relationship challenges, or major life transitions.
My approach is supportive, practical, and relationship-focused. I draw from evidence-based methods like CBT, Emotionally Focused Therapy, the Gottman Method, and trauma-informed care to help clients better understand themselves, regulate emotions, and strengthen their relationships. Therapy with me is collaborative and paced to feel safe and manageable, not rushed or judgmental.
I believe meaningful change happens when people feel truly seen and understood. My goal is to create a space where you can be honest, build insight, and develop tools you can use in everyday life—whether that means improving communication, healing from trauma, or reconnecting with yourself or your partner.
If you’re looking for a therapist who is warm, grounded, and focused on real, lasting change, I’d be honored to support you.

I approach clients with the an open mindset, looking to explore what the client needs and what they want for themselves. I always want my clients to know there is no judgement from me in their decisions, EVER. I view everyone's mistakes as us just being human and having a human experience. This practice of examining our human journey and what motivates us to do the things we do is extended to myself, my clients and my children/family. I often attempt to have the practice of asking myself "why did I do that? Did I do that because of this or because I was feeling blank?" I think it is important to help others get to the place where they ask themselves the same type of questions. We're all here just having human experiences!

Let's see if you relate to these: You're exhausted from second-guessing every decision. Your inner critic is loud and mean. In general, your thoughts are loud and racing. Getting out of bed some days feels impossible. You're disconnected—from your body, from younger versions of yourself, from what you want.
Here's what we'll do together: We'll quiet that critic. Rebuild your trust in yourself. Process the hard stuff and spot the patterns keeping you stuck. You'll get clear on what matters to you—then use that as your compass.
I bring warmth, humor, and real talk. I'm here to listen and gently challenge you. We'll work with your whole self—mind, body, values—so you can stop second-guessing, feel lighter, and remember your own strength. It's time to decide what deserves your energy, and what doesn't.

You try to handle everything, take care of everyone, and somehow keep all the plates spinning. Until life throws you a curveball you didn't see coming. Suddenly, your relationship is unraveling, work is overwhelming, you can't sleep, or your brain has apparently decided that 2 a.m. is the perfect time to solve every problem you've ever had.

Hi, I'm Esther.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a Daring Way Trained Facilitator. I've been providing counseling to individuals for almost 6 years. Prior to that, I worked in the education sector for almost 10 years, which deeply sparked my interest in pursuing mental health work.
To me, counseling sessions are like writing a story. It is a process that involves brainstorming, creating drafts, and making revisions until your story feels whole and complete. Imagine you are the writer. You have all the pieces of your story within you already. Think of your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors as those pieces. Sometimes, they don’t make any sense, it’s overwhelming, and you don’t know where to begin. I view my role as someone who is with you to guide you through the process and help organize those very thoughts, feelings, and behaviors with you. During our time together, it is my hope that you develop the skills to ultimately write your story on your own.
Your story may include experiencing cycles of depression, anxiety, grief, past trauma, struggles of worthiness and belonging, the complexities of being a part of an immigrant family, generational trauma, a combination of these things, or perhaps something entirely different. Everyone's mental health journey is different. I’m here to meet you where you are.
I also want to acknowledge how scary it can be when taking a leap of faith into a new therapeutic journey. It takes a lot of courage. More than anything, it’s important to me that you feel safe and the stories you share are handled with utmost care.

Welcome! I'm glad you're here. Reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step, especially when you've spent a long time trying to manage things on your own. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, struggling with anxiety or depression, navigating life transitions, or trying to make sense of experiences that continue to affect you, you don't have to figure everything out on your own.
Sometimes, we know something isn't working, but we're not sure why we feel the way we do or how to move forward. You may find yourself overthinking, feeling stuck in familiar patterns, struggling to manage emotions, or having difficulty understanding your own needs. Therapy offers an opportunity to slow down, explore what's going on beneath the surface, and begin making sense of your experiences at your own pace.
I believe you can accept where you are today while still working toward something different. You don't have to have everything figured out before starting therapy, and you don't need to know exactly what to say. We can start wherever you are and work together to identify what matters most to you, what may be getting in the way, and what changes you would like to make.
My hope is that therapy becomes a place where you can show up as yourself, speak openly, and feel comfortable exploring difficult thoughts and emotions without pressure or judgment. Whether your goal is to better understand yourself, strengthen your relationships, manage stress, or feel more confident navigating life's challenges, we'll work together to find an approach that feels meaningful and manageable for you.

Whatever you are dealing with, know that I am here to listen and support you, through harnessing of compassionate self-awareness. I believe strongly in encouraging self-empowerment, focusing on choices and their results. Central to my theoretical orientation (Person-Centered, Existentialist) is a focus on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, being solution-focused, as well as encouraging mindfulness.
A little bit about how I approach therapy. In creating an alliance with a new client, I adopt a stance of listening and confronting situations non-judgmentally and with compassion, acknowledging that this work is about you, and your life's goals and struggles. My practice is built around partnership with my clients, working hard to establish and maintain this therapeutic alliance. I do this by taking cues of direction, pace and depth from the people with whom I work, and allowing for immediacy to inform what is and is not working.

Hello! I bring 17 years of mental health experience along for your sessions. I have been in private practice since January of 2023. I consider myself a generalist and I'm happy to help you with any need or concern that you might have. Some of the areas where I have the most experience are depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and grief and loss. I have spent the majority of my career working in a University setting and have helped many college-age adults make meaningful changes. I have also worked in behavioral health clinics and have experience working with clients that have been legally referred to therapy. I work with almost all age groups however, I typically do not work with persons under the age of 18. If you are a minor, please have your guardian consult with me before scheduling an intake and I will consider your need and my areas of expertise and help you determine our next steps. I am also no longer able to accommodate couples therapy. If you are seeking a couples therapy session I will be happy to assist you with a referral. At this time, I am unable to assist with FMLA paperwork.

Hi there, I'm Yvonne.
I am an empathetic therapist who has military experience. I devoted over 22 years to empowering and guiding others to be successful in becoming the person they wanted to be while serving their country. Are you struggling to be authentic in your relationships, work, and with your self? Is it hard to be kind to yourself?
Together, we can identify what's not working and get you back to where you want to be in life. We'll use a whole self approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit. I believe everyone has a treasure within themselves, each person is beautifully unique, like a diamond, and it takes courage to be willing to start digging through the difficulties of life to find our healing and truth.
Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the hurts, habits, and hangups holding you back. Let's work together!

What happens during the first therapy session?
What happens during the first therapy session?
Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
