Therapists in Texas

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas eager to help you with any difficulty that you may be facing. In my professional experience, I have provided mental health counseling to persons of all ages with a wide range of difficulties and issues. I am a compassionate and flexible counselor. I will provide only what is necessary and what is best for you. My sessions consist of services that are personalized to each unique case. My approach to counseling incorporates evidence-based treatments that are proven to help people overcome any issue. I am here to offer you the support that you need and to guarantee that you get the professional guidance that you need. My sessions will lead you not only to overcome whatever difficulty you are experiencing, but will also help you to develop the best mental health possible. I always ensure that you obtain the results that are best for you. In every appointment, my goal is to help you find the mental strength that will sustain you for a lifetime.

Are you struggling to keep up with life’s demands? Do you often feel anxious, overwhelmed, or emotionally drained, even when everything seems “fine” on the outside? You’re not alone. My name is Melanie, and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who provides trauma-informed therapy to women, young adults, and teens who are navigating anxiety, depression, low self-worth, and life transitions. My approach is rooted in compassion, authenticity, and collaboration. I understand how heavy it can feel when you’re constantly giving to others but don’t feel emotionally safe or supported yourself. You may be stuck in survival mode, dealing with perfectionism, people-pleasing, or childhood wounds that still impact how you move through the world. You might crave peace and clarity but struggle to slow down, set boundaries, or fully trust yourself. Therapy doesn’t have to feel clinical or overwhelming. It can be a space where you can finally take a deep breath, be seen without judgment, and begin healing at your own pace. Together, we’ll gently explore the patterns that no longer serve you and identify the internal blocks keeping you stuck. Whether you’re feeling emotionally burnt out, navigating relationship struggles, or trying to reconnect with your sense of self, I’m here to help you find alignment. I bring a warm, supportive presence into every session so you can feel safe to show up exactly as you are. This is your time to prioritize you. Healing is possible—and it begins with feeling seen, supported, and empowered.

I have experience working in private practice and have been involved with Inpatient/outpatient/IOP/PHP programs. My areas of expertise include CBT, DBT, MI, couples counseling, Gottman Theory, and Race-based therapies. I am also experienced in LGBTQ and Multi-Cultural counseling. In my free time, I enjoy ballroom dancing, doing hair, traveling, and socializing outside of the behavioral health care field.

Greetings to you and all With a wish for good health and peace in your life. My name is Sherby John. I have been working and learning along this journey, we call life, just as you have. It can be a journey filled with joy and struggle. Have you reached a point where it seems there is more struggle than joy or feel stuck in the muck that seems to only get deeper or harder to transgress? Then maybe it is time to find new paths and options by having a guide on this journey. Therapy can be a vehicle for change and development of workable tools to assist in continuing with this journey. Whether you are dealing with Depression, Life changes, Anxiety, Relationships, Trauma, or a new medical or mental health diagnosis, therapy can be a useful mechanism for support, discernment, and information. I would like to provide you with a safe and welcoming environment and space to relieve yourself of these stressors through working on alternatives to current reactions to triggers or stressors in the way of continuing your journey, your way and at your own pace. Come in. Lets Talk. Lets get to work.

Starting therapy can be intimidating and I am here to assist you taking that step. If you're navigating anxiety, burnout, or unresolved pain, I offer grounded, body-aware therapy rooted in nervous system healing, EMDR, somatic tools, and deep listening. My approach is relational, steady, and tailored to your lived experience. You won’t get surface-level strategies you’ll get a space to finally exhale. Clients choose me when they want real change, at a pace that honors their story. Together, we’ll build emotional clarity, stability, and a deeper connection to who you truly are.

Are you feeling stuck in frustrating patterns or struggling to find joy in the monotony of life? Are you easily overwhelmed by emotions? Do you struggle with overthinking, worrying, and obsessing over little things, big things, and everything in between? Perhaps you've tried different strategies on your own, but continue to find yourself falling back into old habits. Life is too short to be controlled by anxiety, depression, past traumas, or unsatisfying relationships. Let's get you moving in the right direction and help you find peace, control, and clarity. I can help you build a life that you feel excited to wake up to each morning. Together, we will create a plan to move you toward your goals, help you break free from the burdens that you carry, and cultivate a life of meaning and purpose. I offer a supportive space that incorporates mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy and couples counseling. Each of these modalities provide a way of integrating the mind-body connection and working through emotions, thought patterns, and experiences. Here, you will be free to share your concerns, fears, and insecurities while acquiring the necessary tools to propel yourself forward and live your best life. I can't wait to join you on your journey!

Hey there! Are you feeling a little overwhelmed lately? You’re not alone. Maybe you’ve been juggling a million things, second-guessing yourself, or trying to keep everyone else happy while quietly burning out. If that sounds familiar, I see you and I’d love to help. I work with millennials, professionals and creatives who are ready to stop running on autopilot and start feeling more connected, calm, and confident in their own skin. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, going through a big life transition, struggling with boundaries, or just feeling “off,” we’ll work together to make sense of it and create space for something new. In our sessions, you can expect compassion, curiosity, and maybe even a little humor when it fits. I use an integrative approach rooted in evidence-based practices like CBT, but I also bring creativity and flexibility into the process because therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all, and neither are you. This is your space to breathe, reflect, and grow. You don’t have to have it all figured out. You just have to show up and we’ll take it from there, together.
