Hi there, I’m Olimpia Do you ever feel hopeless? Are you struggling to keep up with basic day to day routines? Is it hard to give yourself some love? I help to manage symptoms of anxiety and depression by learning and identifying triggers , looking at it from a different perspective, and how to have a better relationship with yourself. I do have an eclectic approach that involves mindfulness, diet, exercise, meditation, and awareness. Whether it is anxiety, depressions, ADHD, or relationship issues, I am here to help. Therapy can be scary, but you have taken the first step to figuring out what is going on. Hopefully together we can get to the bottom of things and find the balance that is important to you.

I am a compassionate therapist dedicated to helping individuals navigate challenges such as depression, anxiety, substance abuse, low self-esteem, and life transitions. My approach is personalized, drawing from therapies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Solution-Focused, and Narrative Therapy. I believe in creating a safe, supportive space where clients can explore their emotions, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, and develop practical strategies to achieve their personal goals. My aim is to empower you to live a more fulfilling and balanced life, with tools that fit your unique needs and values.

Are you searching for someone to listen to you? For many years, I have heard over and over, “Thank you, I have just been wanting someone to listen to me”. I have always felt led to just sit and listen when someone opens up and spills their heart to me. I have been a licensed social worker since 1996, working with clients in healthcare settings and case management. In addition to being a licensed social worker, I completed graduate school and met a lifelong dream of becoming a licensed professional counselor in 2022. I have worked with the senior population in skilled, nursing, private homes, and inpatient physical rehabilitation for 30 years. This brought me to not only work directly with the senior population, but also their family members to provide the love and support needed to get through life's challenges and circumstances. I have gained experience in helping work through stress, anxiety, depression, family dynamics, job loss, marital problems, physical limitations, and/or disabilities, as well as long-term life-altering situations. I am a wife, a mother of two young adult children, a mother-in-law, a grandmother, a sister, and a daughter myself. My own life experiences help to ground me while supporting others. I understand and know how family dynamics affect an individual’s physical and emotional health in all aspects of their daily lives. I am trauma-informed. I understand and realize that traumatic experiences (no matter when they happened in life) can follow us down the road when we don't even realize it is happening. Once a client understands how trauma affects their brain function and daily life, they can realize the power they have to make positive change in their lives, where before they may have felt stuck or powerless.

I work with clients navigating trauma, anxiety, mood and personality disorders, and grief. My approach is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative. I strive to create a space where you will feel truly heard and supported, while also gently challenging you toward growth, healing, and meaningful change at a pace that feels right for you. You're in charge and I am here to guide and support you on this journey.

Welcome! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor(LPC) licensed in Texas. I received my masters degree from Dallas Baptist University and have been practicing for 11 years. I help adults struggling with anxiety, depression, low self worth, life transitions, and parenting struggles. I have worked in non profit agencies, community mental health, and private practice. I am honored to walk beside you on the journey to increased health.

My goal is to create a warm, open space where you can explore your feelings and thoughts without fear of judgment. It's completely normal to feel a bit nervous about seeking help. It's not every day that we open up about our deepest fears or worries. But remember, you're not alone in this journey. Whether you're working through anxiety, self-doubt, or a desire for personal growth, my approach blends evidence-based tools with genuine connection to help you reclaim your story and move forward with confidence. My aim is to help ease the symptoms, but more importantly, to help you build a solid foundation so you can face life's challenges head-on. The goal of our sessions? To nurture positive change, reduce feelings like anxiety, anger, guilt, and shame, and ultimately help you navigate life with more clarity, peace, and well-being.

Some of that experience includes working with individuals who have experienced symptoms of depression, anxiety, bullying, PTSD, bipolar disorder, marital concerns, childhood trauma, adult trauma, suicidal ideations, grief, stress, family conflict and relationship conflict. I like to utilize many approaches in my therapeutic sessions. Therapeutic practices include Solutions Focused Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Adventured based therapy.

Everyone needs a safe space to unpack life's heaviest moments. As a multi-state Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Florida, North Carolina, and Texas. I specialize in helping high-achieving professionals, women, and adults navigate overwhelming anxiety, perfectionism, and major life transitions (like career shifts, relocations, and relationship changes). My therapeutic approach is collaborative, warm, and deeply practical. I integrate evidence-based techniques including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, and Solution-Focused Therapy to help you break cycles of self-doubt. Together, we will uncover your core strengths, establish healthy boundaries, and build the lasting resilience needed to live life on your own terms. I look forward to walking alongside you on your journey toward transformation.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of clinical experience, specializing in trauma-informed care. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, trauma, and relational challenges, including those impacted by complex or chronic stress and past adverse experiences. My approach is structured, direct, and evidence-based, while consistently prioritizing patient-centered care and maintaining unconditional positive regard. I focus on helping clients understand how trauma influences thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, while building practical skills for emotional regulation, boundary setting, and improved interpersonal functioning. Interventions are paced to support safety, trust, and readiness for change. I emphasize clarity, accountability, and measurable progress, while creating a therapeutic space that is respectful, nonjudgmental, and supportive. My goal is to help clients reduce the ongoing impact of past experiences, strengthen resilience, and apply effective coping strategies in their daily lives.

Therapy can feel like a scary thing, but it doesn't have to be. There isn't anything you have to be scared to tell me- I'll literally lose my license if I betray your trust! I have worked with all kinds of trauma, orientations, and lifestyles. I have worked with a wide range of people, and I believe in respecting everyone. This is a safe place for growth and healing to start. Life is too short to not give it a try. My goal is always for you to feel safe and heard. Sometimes going through changes is a painful difficult thing, so it helps to have someone who you feel you can discuss frustrations with. If you ever feel that we are not a good fit, I will support you in finding someone who is. No one should have to feel alone when they are working to better their selves.

Halfway into the year, how is it going? Are you ready to try something different? If so, I may be able to help you. My name is Jessica, and I am a Bilingual (English and Spanish) Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas. I am committed to being an agent for positive change. I have always had a love and desire to help people. This has been evident through counseling, previous experience in education, and immersion in various cultures globally. I can assist you with setting and reaching goals to work towards being a better version of yourself.

Life can feel like standing at a crossroads with no clear signs. The pressure to have it all figured out — your career, your relationships, your sense of self — can quietly build into something heavier than you expected. If you're waking up exhausted, struggling to feel motivated, and carrying a low hum of worry that never quite goes away, you're not alone. And you don't have to keep pushing through it on your own. I specialize in working with adults navigating the overlapping challenges of anxiety and depression — two experiences that often travel together, each making the other harder to manage. You might find yourself caught in cycles of overthinking and withdrawal, feeling both restless and empty at the same time. That tension is real, and it makes sense given everything you're carrying. My approach combines talk therapy with practical, evidence-based tools designed to build lasting change. Together, we'll work to untangle the thought patterns keeping you stuck, develop coping skills you can actually use in daily life, and strengthen your emotional resilience and flexibility — so that when life gets hard, you have real resources to draw on. I create a space that is warm, judgment-free, and genuinely tailored to who you are, and what works for you. You're at a stage of life that's full of real pressure and real possibility. Therapy isn't about having something "seriously wrong" with you — it's about getting the support you deserve to move through this period with more clarity, steadiness, and self-compassion.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who believes healing begins the moment you feel truly seen. My work is warm, steady, and culturally attuned, shaped by the stories people carry and the resilience they often don’t recognize in themselves. I help clients slow down, breathe, and reconnect with the parts of themselves that have been silenced by stress, trauma, or expectation. In our work together, we explore your inner world with curiosity and compassion, using neuroscience‑informed tools to support clarity, regulation, and meaningful change.

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! I'm Belen. Are you looking for change but feel stuck? Maybe you are looking to break certain patterns or need guidance on how to cope with stress, anxiety, or depression. Perhaps you have reached a point in your life where you feel you have lost your identity, and need help connecting back to yourself. I am passionate about helping people create a more fulfilling life. A life where they can feel like themselves again.

Hello, my name is Raquel, I am here to help support you in reaching your goals. It can often be hard to know where to start. Are you looking for an experienced clinician with a passion for helping clients reach their full potential? I have worked to help hundreds of clients reach their goals and create meaningful change in their lives. I am excited to help support you in this next chapter of your journey.

I am a licensed independent practice-level clinical social worker. I have a Diplomate in Clinical Social Work DCSW. I have dedicated my career to working in behavioral health treatment. I have worked within the Department of Defense Schools in Europe and Asia. I have worked with Active Duty members, Veterans and their families. Prior to joining the Civil Service, I practiced mental health within the civilian community, my focus there was substance abuse, domestic violence and and a variety of mental health issues working with adolescents and adults. My strongest ability lies in helping a client identify strengths and weaknesses while guiding them to identify goals and interventions that will work specifically for them. The most challenging part of therapy is believing it will make a difference. The best way to overcome that hurdle is to see successful outcomes. Clinical experience has taught me that if you are willing to do the work, you will see results. Using the appropriate interventions, combined with mutual openness, respect and trust will enable you to overcome obstacles and achieve goals you didn't believe possible. Through years of dedicated work with all age groups, life experiences and extremely challenging circumstances, I have developed a strong sense of commitment in creating a safe and supportive environment that fosters healing, self-awareness and growth.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in central Texas. I believe that we are all beings who want healing in all aspects of our life: physical, emotional, social and spiritual. The differences between the emotional health we have and the health we want can create tension between our current situation and our self image and power. Often, we don't know how to make lasting changes. That change struggle can be too difficult to face without strong support and the realization someone understands, supports and affirms your ability to learn new coping skills. My counseling approach is educational, and we begin with where you are emotionally now. I value treating everyone with respect and kindness. We move at your pace. I will assign homework if you want to move more quickly.

Hello, my name is Teresa, practicing mental health for over 16 years working with the military population. Working as a middle school teacher in a lower socioeconomic area. This led to my desire to go back to school for my master’s degree in counseling psychology. Receiving my LPC licensure, led me to pursue my chemical dependency counselor license (LCDC). I began working as a substance abuse counselor with the US Army in substance abuse counseling. While working with the military I worked at a local hospital developing a program for civilians in chemical dependency. The need to work with individuals, and families including Service Members, led me to work as a contractor for private corporations. During this time, I received a certification in behavioral therapy to work with the autism spectrum population. Raised as a military dependent, then wife and mother, I experienced many aspects of different personalities. I was led to understand what it means to try to hide who you are to eventually become someone you may not recognize. The goal is to have you see, life is wonderful, we go through the storm to appreciate the sunshine. The experience developed led me to work with addiction, anxiety, PTSD, and many other mental health issues. We are a beautiful bouquet with different views on life. Using an eclectic therapeutic array of mental health care has allotted me to develop individual care. This concept of care is the same for couples and group therapy. Some techniques include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and psychosocial therapeutic techniques.

Change is hard, not having the tools, direction and support make the process even harder. I can help you identify areas that may be keeping you stuck. I also provide wellness and behavioral health coaching in addition to traditional therapy. The atmosphere that is created in the therapy session is one of warmth, safety, and acceptance. I have a straightforward, interactive approach to treatment. I am passionate about my work and strongly believe in the healing benefits of therapy. Reach out to me, I’d love to help you help heal, connect, & thrive. Together we can create the life you want.

I really like psychology. I like the art of effective communication. I like using psychology to understand myself and others behaviors. I believe faith along logical thinking to help people sustain realistic self-acceptance while giving intentional self-compassion. I am drawn to psychology because it offers a way to make sense of human experience in a structured yet deeply personal way. I value effective communication as an art because it allows people to express themselves clearly, reduce misunderstandings, and build stronger emotional connections. I use psychological principles to better understand both my own behavior and the behavior of others, which helps create more awareness, empathy, and intentional responses in relationships and daily life. I also believe that combining faith with logical thinking can support a more grounded approach to personal growth. This balance allows individuals to hold onto meaning and hope while still engaging in realistic, rational reflection. Through this integration, people can develop a sense of self-acceptance that is honest and sustainable, while also practicing intentional self-compassion that encourages growth without self-judgment.

I am a licensed therapist working with adults, couples, and families, offering sessions virtually across Washington and Texas. I've spent 7 years in the mental health field, the last 3 years as a therapist, working with anxiety, identity concerns, relationship issues, family conflict, and major life transitions. I draw on a range of therapeutic tools and adjust based on your history, your goals, and the pace that works for you. Some clients want clear strategies; others need space to talk before a plan makes sense. Both are welcome here. I want this to be a space where you don't have to perform wellness or pretend you have it together. That means listening more than I talk early on, asking questions to understand your situation, and being honest if a different approach or provider would serve you better.

Hello my name is Madonna Dishmon. I am a compassionate and dedicated Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 15 plus years of experience in providing therapeutic support to individuals, couples, and families. I have a passion for helping people. I have always been a helper in my family, community and professional career. I have a strong background in cognitive-behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, anxiety, depression, individual and relationship counseling, I am committed to helping clients navigate life's challenges, heal from past experiences, and work toward a healthier, more fulfilling future.

I am a warm, compassionate, and down-to-earth therapist who believes therapy works best when clients feel genuinely safe, heard, and understood. I strive to create a space where people can show up as they are without feeling judged, rushed, or expected to have everything figured out. My approach is rooted in connection and collaboration. While I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), somatic and nervous-system-informed techniques, and trauma-informed care into my work, I primarily work from a person-centered perspective, meaning I tailor therapy to each individual rather than taking a rigid or one-size-fits-all approach. I enjoy working with adolescents and adults who may be navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, trauma, stress, or self-esteem struggles. Many of my clients are thoughtful, sensitive, high-functioning people who are used to carrying a lot internally and are looking for both practical support and a deeper understanding of themselves. I believe healing often begins with having a space where you no longer feel like you have to hold everything together alone. My goal is to help clients feel supported while building insight, confidence, emotional resilience, and meaningful change in their lives.

Hello, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas. I have spent 26 years in the Army working in healthcare. Five years ago, I transitioned to the mental health field to continue my passion for working with individuals in need. I help adults struggling with anxiety related to career and relationship stress become the best versions of themselves.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults with various types of mental health diagnoses and needs. I have degrees in Speech Therapy as well as Counseling. I specialize in anxiety, depression, stress-related and relationship issues, among many others. I have a passion for treating with a trauma informed lense even when trauma is not the initial reason for seeing therapy.

My career started as a classroom teacher and school counselor. I currently have over 20 years of experience working with students and families. In addition to my school counseling career, I am a crisis clinician in a major hospital in the DFW metroplex and work in over 32 emergency rooms providing on-call patient care. We all face unexpected challenges which sometimes leave us feeling hopeless and powerless. I believe that we have the ability to make healthy and appropriate choices regardless of the circumstances in which we may find ourselves. My role as a therapist is to assist and support clients as they learn new ways of coping and adjusting to life’s challenges. Counseling will vary depending upon one’s personality, stage of life, strengths or particular concern. Getting started can feel overwhelming. You have no idea where to even begin. You’ve been putting off therapy because you’re afraid it won’t help. More than anything you’d like to be able to feel happy again. You’d like to be able to put yourself out there more and to create deeper, more meaningful relationships with others. You want to have the courage to be your authentic self without hiding behind a mask.

I support adults who are looking to build on their strengths, develop new resources, and create meaningful, lasting change in their lives. My approach is collaborative, goal-oriented, and person-centered, which means we work together to identify what matters most to you and create a plan that aligns with your goals and values. Life can bring challenges that feel overwhelming, especially when emotions become difficult to manage or relationships feel strained. In therapy, I provide a supportive space where you can better understand your experiences, strengthen your sense of self, and develop healthier ways of coping and connecting with others. I believe that each client is the expert on their own life, and my role is to help guide, support, and empower you throughout the process. I am continually learning and expanding my clinical skills so I can bring effective, evidence-based approaches into our work together. My therapeutic style incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and EMDR to help clients build practical skills, gain insight, and move toward positive change. Outside of the therapy office, I enjoy teaching dance, working out, and baking treats to share with friends and family. These activities help me stay connected, balanced, and energized, and I bring that same enthusiasm and commitment into my work with clients.

As your counselor, my priority and main goal is creating a safe, inclusive, and judgment-free space where you feel heard, understood, and supported. Therapy is a collaborative journey centered on your growth and healing, one where we explore meaningful goals, deepen self-awareness, and make sense of your experiences. I will meet you where you are in your life journey and we will go through it at your pace, taking things as they come and building and enhancing skills to overcome not only the memories of the past but also current and future challenges.

I am licensed in Texas with 4 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, & parenting issues. I also have experience working with coping with life changes. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

Hello, I’m Ceci, the owner of Riding Waves Counseling PLLC.

I believe therapy is a collaborative process, and my role is to walk alongside you as you navigate change, build resilience, and reconnect with your strengths.

LIFE be LIFING… From the outside, you’re holding it together—but inside, you’re exhausted and running on empty.

I help you move out of survival mode, gain clarity, and feel more grounded, calm, and in control. I’m a compassionate and direct therapist who believes healing starts with feeling seen, heard, and understood without judgment. I work with adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, substance use recovery, compassion fatigue, relationship challenges, and overwhelming life stressors.

I actively challenge the patterns that keep clients stuck. I guide my clients out of survival mode into the present moment. I incorporate trauma informed yoga to reset the nervous system. I am EMDR trained. In-person & in-home case-by-case. Stay safe and talk soon. My experience varies from severe mood disorders to generalized anxiety. Niches with training: Suicidality and high-risk, LGBTQIA+, Military, Adoption.

Welcome! Let me tell you a little about myself. I have a Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology from Murray State University in Murray, KY. I have been a licensed professional counselor (LPC) for the state of Texas since 2012 and for the state of Georgia since 2017. I am a native Texan that has lived in different states for educational and employment purposes. I enjoy learning from my clients as much as I enjoy providing them with vital mental health information. Are you struggling to keep up with work and health? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? Together, we can identify your options and develop a plan of action to get you back on track. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, have daily lifestyle issues, or have cycles of anxiety and depression, I'm here to assist you. 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 feel empowered and strong. Let's work together!

I am a LPC and Professional School Counselor with seven years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, family conflicts, motivation, self-esteem, problem solving, goal setting, and coping with life changes. I’ve spent the majority of my counseling career working with teens and young adults. I have counseled teens from all backgrounds with a wide range of presenting issues. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I’m here to support and empower you in that journey.

I am an empathetic and intuitive person who cares very much about the lives of others. I have been in my own therapy for some time as I would not ask others to do work I can’t do myself. I engage with each client with a pace and style that matches the diagnosis, history, and emotional state they are experiencing. I am very open to feedback back and If you disagree with me on something I encourage a safe relationship where sharing that feels ok.
