I enjoy working with clients who are ready to work through their past hurts; or maybe just gain a better understanding of how their brain works, and how that connects to behavior and emotions. I love to bring a lot of energy to meetings and enjoy celebrating every person's individuality. I bring over a decade of counseling experience, as well as variety of life experiences to draw from.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with 20 years of experience — and a woman who has navigated midlife, reinvention, and the seasons of life that quietly change you. That lived experience shapes every session I offer. I specialize in working with women who are strong on the outside but exhausted on the inside — women navigating menopause, identity shifts, heartbreak, dating, and the complicated feeling of standing at a crossroads wondering who they are becoming. I'm warm and direct. I'll hold space when you need to be heard and gently challenge you when you're ready to grow. Clients tell me they feel safe being real with me from the very first conversation — and that they leave sessions feeling clearer, lighter, and more like themselves. My approach blends evidence-based therapy with mind-body practices rooted in mindfulness, breathwork, and somatic awareness — because healing lives in the body too, not just the mind. If you've been carrying something alone for too long or simply know that something needs to shift — I'm here. Just come as you are.

Hi there! My name is Chinh. If you’ve reached my page, chances are that your heart has been broken, you probably just had the umpteenth argument with your significant other, or maybe you’re stuck in a frustrating cycle of self-doubt, low self-esteem, and overwhelming thoughts that never seem to let up. Maybe it’s all of the above! Whatever brought you here — I’m glad you came. Let’s work through it together. I grew up in a culture where mental illness wasn’t something you talked about. Emotional struggles were ignored, hidden, or minimized. I was taught that sharing feelings was a weakness — that being strong meant staying silent. That experience shaped me. Today, I’m passionate about helping people unlearn those harmful beliefs and start living with more freedom, clarity, and emotional honesty. I want to help end the stigma associated with mental illness. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Texas, Louisiana, and New Mexico, and I hold a Ph.D. in Counseling. I’ve spent years working with adults, couples, and families — helping people reconnect with themselves and each other. My approach is strength-based and holistic: I believe healing doesn’t mean “fixing” you — it means understanding you, supporting you, and helping you build the life you want. Therapy can be hard work, but you don't have to do it alone. I offer a space where you can show up exactly as you are — without judgment. Let's rewrite your story together.

I know at times life can seem confusing or even impossible. I believe with every fiber of my being we all have the answers we need. Somehow we get separated from our core strength. You are the expert on you, you alone hold your truth. I am interested in your story and use the description, "enlightened witness" as a way to describe some of what I do in my work as a therapist and healer. I see myself as a fellow traveler, a helper, and a companion who "holds the lantern" to help guide people to move out of dark places and into their truth. Much of the time we are living a narrative others have crafted, often driven by fear or pain rather than strength. These narratives can feel like prisons but we can heal and take back our story, and choose to see from our core. Embrace compassion, reflection and most of all self-love. Some of my greatest joy comes from helping people move past pain into healthy and loving relationships with themselves and others. I believe suffering is inevitable but not without wisdom and growth. Sometimes seeing our strengths is difficult. Self-love must include your whole being and all parts ~ messy, vulnerable, raw and authentic. You are the velveteen rabbit and you are already worthy of your own love. You are already real. I am licensed in Virginia, West Virginia and Texas. I see clients in these states only at this point. FYI Please schedule on the hour only. Otherwise, I will have to call you back and reschedule. I usually offer mostly daytime hours so having the time to meet during the day is important.

Hi I'm Jennifer. I work with a wide range of therapy clients. In all my therapy I find that many times unresolved feelings and negative thought patterns come into play. Often the way we learn to communicate and our feelings about ourselves impact our relationships with others. My background is in trauma and attachment. Helping people understand how their unresolved feelings related to trauma affects their current relationships and life is where most of the work is. I work with you to identify what keeps you stuck and how to shift to improve communication, mood, relationships, and have a more positive outlook. I also work with you to identify and work toward your goals, whatever they may be. I work with a solution focused, cognitive behavioral style. I have been trained in TFCBT. I have many years experience and work to find what will work best with you. Change is hard and identifying what is impacting your life and holding you back is where we work together to move forward. I look forward to getting to know you and help you grow and blossom.

Hi there, my name is Shawn Taylor. I’m here to help. Are you experiencing anger or frustration because important needs and expectations remain unmet? Are you struggling to balance your relationships, work, health, and personal responsibilities? Do you feel anxious or uncertain about the direction your life is taking? Have unhealthy habits or recurring patterns kept you from becoming the person you know you are capable of becoming? Throughout my career, I have consistently observed that most people genuinely want to change. What is often missing is not motivation, but a practical understanding of how to turn insight and intention into consistent, sustainable action. For more than 20 years, I have studied human behavior from three professional perspectives: criminal justice investigator, educator, and mental health practitioner. These experiences have taught me to look beyond symptoms and identify the underlying experiences, beliefs, emotional responses, and behavioral patterns that may keep people stuck. My approach helps you understand those patterns, strengthen emotional and behavioral self-regulation, process unresolved experiences, develop healthier coping strategies, and build greater personal agency. Rather than simply asking, “What is wrong?” we also explore: “What happened, what patterns developed, what keeps them active, and what can you begin doing differently?” My goal is to help you translate greater self-awareness into healthier decisions, behaviors, relationships, and outcomes—with greater clarity, resilience, confidence, and self-direction. I earned my MA in Counseling Psychology from Houston Graduate School of Theology in 2014 and have served as a Houston Police Department Criminal Justice Investigator, Spring ISD Career & Technology Educator, and independent Mental Health Practitioner.

I have extensive experience helping clients manage stress, anxiety, and the effects of past experiences. In our sessions, I’ll teach simple, effective ways to handle emotions and life challenges. Together, we’ll work on building confidence, gaining clarity, and making choices that move you toward peace, balance, and a better quality of life.

🔔 PSA: No new couples clients 🧭 // APPROACH Your holistic transformation starts now. Clients consistently praise my empathy, perceptiveness, practical guidance, and measurable improvements they experience, with one noting: "Tim is empathetic and encouraging. I'm on session 7 seeing improvements. 10/10." Therapy should feel like a cozy tea-time chat in your living room, creating a safe space where intimacy and authentic connection flourish naturally. I bring a holistic, modern approach rooted in CBT, narrative therapy, and trauma-informed care, supporting individuals through dating, marriage, or healing from the past. I tailor my approach to your unique story, helping you find peace, reconnect, and build lasting relationships, whether you're feeling distant, unheard, or weighed down by the past. 🙏 // GRACE POLICY Please respect my 15-minute wait policy. Sessions don't always start exactly on time due to back-to-back appointments. More than likely, I will be in the waiting room once you join, in a session, transitioning the prior client with grace, before I prepare for you. As clients can be a few minutes late without issue, practitioners deserve similar grace. 🧘🏽‍♀️ // SERVICE & CARE BOUNDARIES I DO NOT provide docs (e.g., dr. notes, signatures, letters) for lawsuits, legal cases, work accommodations, emotional support animals, or leave requests, this includes FMLA, unemployment, lawsuits, etc. If that's a need, i'm not your fit. Furthermore, I don't tolerate any disrespect or intentional and malicious transference towards me in session. I am here to process your bad days and equip you with the perspective, tools, and frameworks to navigate them, not receive the brunt of them. I will abruptly stop a session in which I feel threatened, disrespected, or abused and report the client to Growth Therapy (or law enforcement). My work is my livelihood and passion. I will protect it and myself.

Hi there, I'm Brian. Do you miss feeling on track and working towards your goals? Are you not connecting with those you felt close to, such as your best friends, significant other, or family? Do things just feel a bit off and you need some guidance to get back to being "you"? I meet the client in their environment and empower them to help themselves. A holistic approach to therapy is used, pulling from several different therapeutic beliefs. Every client is different and unique, and therefore the approach to healing follows this same path. We'll discuss your goals up front to know which to direction to work towards, and help you discover new things about your healing and coping along the way. Every person's struggle matters. Therapy is not about gauging whether someone is weak or strong, but building on their already existing strengths to help them find healthy ways to help themselves. Therapy is about discovery. Regardless of your reason for reaching out, I'll help you find the right track. You already have the tools to help yourself, let's work together to find out what they are. I look forward to speaking with you. New Client referrals: https://provider.growtherapy.com/book-appointment?id=2829&ref=prov

My name is Tiffany Pangarakis, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the state of Texas. I earned my Bachelor of Social Work degree from Stephen F. Austin State University in 2016 and my Master of Social Work degree from Texas State University in 2018. Before transitioning into outpatient mental health practice, I worked as a medical social worker in the hospice setting for more than four years. During that time, I provided emotional support, counseling, and care coordination to patients and families navigating serious illness, grief, loss, and end-of-life concerns. This experience strengthened my understanding of the emotional challenges individuals and families face during difficult life transitions. Today, I provide evidence-based psychotherapy to adolescents and adults of all ages. I specialize in working with individuals experiencing symptoms related to Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), as well as a variety of personality disorders and adjustment-related concerns.

Hey there! I would love to work alongside you to meet your mental, emotional, and overall health goals. I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor In Texas for over 10 years. I have a passion for nature, fitness and nutrition as resources to lead a more balanced and healthy life. In addition to an eclectic client centered style of counseling, I have been trained to better understand trauma and how it affects the brain and in turn, behaviors. I am currently certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desentization Reprocessing) therapy. The majority of my experience has been in working with youth and their parents to understand their behaviors and overcome trauma; however, I am eager and ready to help all ages. If you are experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trauma related symptoms, low self esteem, or health challenges, I am confident I can help.

Hi, I'm Dr. Nate. Do you find yourself feeling sad, empty, or unmotivated? Do you struggle with anxiety, anger, or behavior you just can't stop? Do you have a child who is struggling or a marriage that could be better? Life presents challenges and sometimes we or the ones we love could use some extra help getting through those challenges successfully. For over fifteen years, I have provided therapy and psychological testing in a variety of settings from private practices to doctor's offices, college counseling centers, and community mental health. My approach is to combine the best of psychotherapy with Christian theology to help others live the abundant life that is found in Jesus. I believe the mind, body, and spirit can all have an impact on a person's functioning, and it's my approach to address those areas that are limiting one's functioning.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use.
