I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the State of Texas and Florida with 15 years of experience providing mental health and substance abuse services to individuals. I believe it is often our past experiences that make-up our present and it influences our future. Through these experiences, we fashion our own individual stories. My clients describe me as a Therapist who makes them feel heard, respected, validated, seen, encouraged and they feel safe to share when they are with me. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and empathy so you can overcome the obstacles that are holding you back. Let's work together!

Greetings, I'm a Licensed Professional Counsellor (LPC) based in Texas. I received my Masters from the University of North Texas and have been practicing for 19 years. Transitioning through life changes can be challenging, and having a therapist assist you through these transitions can be incredibly beneficial. Therapists can provide support, guidance, and tools to help navigate changes in relationships, careers, health, or any other aspect of life. They can help you explore your feelings, identify patterns or obstacles, and develop coping strategies to manage stress and uncertainty. Additionally, therapists can offer a safe and non-judgmental space for you to express yourself and work through any concerns or fears you may have about the transition process.

I'm very pleased you are reaching out for help. For some, taking the first step toward counseling can be the hardest. I am in my 35th year of practice in the San Antonio area. I am very open to whatever works best for you (as long as it does not harm you or others). I provide high quality psychotherapy. Often there are many twists and turns as one becomes psychologically and socially healthier. It is my goal with every client to demonstrate empathy, kindness, and the utmost care I am able to provide. I never judge others. We are free to live our lives as we please. It seems to me many of my skills developed partially due to chronic low vision, and the problems that come with it. It is natural for me to perceive ones pain and distress, as I've dealt with my own. I appreciative you are considering me for the assistance you seek! It is a High Honor and Privilege to be invited into one's personal life to facilitate positive change.

Thank you for the opportunity to introduce myself as a passionate practitioner for over twenty five years.

I help clients to embrace their truth and remind them that it is "Ok not to be perfect!". I specialize in helping people heal from trauma and learn how to love/realize themselves, which entails cultivating healthier relationships, less anxiety and more purpose in their life’s journey. My goal is to help you live life from a place of whole-hearted connection to your world. I am a LCSW (licensed clinical social worker), a Veteran, an adoptive mother, a professor, a daughter, a sister, a community activist, LGBTQIA+ Activist, a nurturer, an empath and and advocate for the voiceless. I am also a survivor of many autrocities that this world has had to offer - but I survived and proudly help others climb out of the mental muck and mire that I used to call home.

I am a licensed clinical social worker. I have worked as a Therapist for 18 years. I have had great opportunities to get great experience with the mental health field.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and have been working as a therapist for over 7 years in diverse settings. My experience includes working with both adolescents and adults that include at-risk populations, juvenile justice involved youth, and in-patient psychiatric settings. I have a relaxed therapeutic style centered on respect, empathy, and compassion. I specialize in depression, anxiety, substance misuse, and trauma.

I have been working in the field of mental health for 14 years. I have experience working with a diverse range of people and mental health disorders. My professional background includes experience in the inpatient, outpatient, and intake hospital setting; non-profit agency setting; and, most recently, private practice. This experience allowed me the opportunity to work with children, adolescents, adults, and families utilizing a variety of unique interventions including cognitive-behavioral therapy, play therapy, eye movement desensitization (EMDR), and sand tray. I specialize in the treatment of trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), but I often take a client centered approach when building a trusting relationship with clients. Research shows that people who experience chronic mental health concerns have untreated trauma, which can occur from a variety of different experiences. Of course, trauma does not account for all mental health concerns, so it is important to be able to meet client's where they are at and provide interventions that are helpful to the individual needs of each client.

"Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in our soul, and sings the tunes without the words, and never stops at all." Emily Dickinson "As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I bring a wealth of therapeutic expertise and an unwavering commitment to supporting individuals and families on their unique journeys. I view counseling as a collaborative, confidential partnership where my primary role is to provide an empathetic and non-judgmental space for exploration and growth. I employ a diverse array of therapy models and strategies, but I also recognize the immense power of simply listening and understanding. Together, we will delve into your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, exploring their impact on both your personal well-being and your relationships with others. My approach is action-oriented and empathetic, geared towards identifying practical solutions for your current challenges, ultimately enhancing your outlook and circumstances. I understand that seeking counseling can be intimidating, and I want to assure you that my focus is not on judgment but on helping you resolve issues and make choices that align with your goals for a more fulfilling life. Sometimes, this may involve gentle challenges to facilitate personal growth, always rooted in a foundation of respect and empathy."

Hello! I'm Mickey, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based out of Texas. I am glad that you are here. I understand how daunting it can feel trying to find the right fit when looking for a therapist.

I don't believe in labels or "tough love" but rather, I will use an eclectic approach to therapy, which allows me to tailor my approach to the individual.

Hi, my name is Mark. Thank you for considering me as your therapist. It would be my pleasure to get to work with you! I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist; that means that not only do I work with individuals who experience all kinds of mental health challenges, but I also specialize in systemic, or relational therapy - working with couples, families & groups. I am a Presidential Member of the American Association of Christian Counselors. If you want your faith included in your therapy, please let me know; your sessions will be as "spiritual" as you'd like, and no more. I have been providing therapy and counseling since 2016, and most recently worked as the therapy manager for a clinic that has four locations. Though I have worked with all populations (youngest 5 years old and oldest 94), I find it difficult to work with kiddos that have ADD, ADHD, OCD, ODD and the like via telehealth. They have trouble sitting still in front of a camera. Children under the age of 15 would be better served in an office setting, face-to-face, in my opinion. I have been with my amazing wife going on 35 years now (2023), and have two wonderful adult children. I enjoy sports, music and all kinds of "outdoorzie" stuff. I most of all just enjoy time with my family. Most of my clients profess to sincerely enjoy working with me; I tend to connect with my clients on a deeper level, and in a more meaningful way, than some other therapists. Many say that they or their children work better with me than any other therapist, counselor or doctor they've experienced. I am immensely grateful for their kind words. I offer my clients a soft place to fall in their hurts and struggles while providing them a firm place to stand in their healing and growth. Always, in a judgment-free way.

At the Child & Adult Behavior Center, we help both adults and children, as well as parents. For adults, we help you find ways to cope with stress, anxiety, loss and depression. Not only talking through and understanding, but also concrete "what to do about it" coping skills, lead to calmer, more stable emotions and relationships. We find cognitive behavioral therapy very useful, and within that, learning the skills of mindfulness, a form of in-the-moment meditative thinking, to calm and focus the mind when emotions overtake. This fosters a new way of viewing and handling stressful situations as they arise. For children's therapy, we work with you, and with your child. Parents' feedback is a critical part of helping children feel and do better. We help you with parent-child interactions to find your way as you navigate the seas of child behavior. Our specializations are the treatment for Aspergers/autism, ADHD, Oppositional Defiance, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, emotional self regulation, the behavioral and emotional aspects of sensory issues, anxiety and depression. Our special programs also treat a wide range of neuroatypical, developmentally challenged children. Neuro-typical parent-child relationships, family relations, and parenting issues for all children and teens are also our focus. We help - you help your child - with ideas and techniques to put into action. Ideas that can greatly reduce the stress and storm of being a parent in the trenches. Peace in the home is possible!

I challenge you while celebrating the changes you are making in your life. I help you to look at your concerns from a different perspective. I can help you identify your roadblocks as you move in the direction to become the person you want to be. I am not the typical therapist in that I do not use a cookie cutter approach to treatment. I like to work with my clients in a way that empowers them while challenging their thinking patterns to change the behaviors that are no longer serving them. With over 30 years of experience, I have developed an expertise in substance abuse, depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, borderline personality disorders and high functioning autism spectrum disorder. I utilize action methods with traditional therapy techniques to help you explore and break through the thought processes and behaviors that are holding you back from being the person you want to be. Through a collaborative approach, I meet you where you are at and assist your growth.

Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas. I am passionate about partnering with my clients to assist in determining and reaching their goals! I have worked with a variety of issues over the years, but have the most experience with childhood trauma, familial conflict, anxiety, depression, and ADHD. I tailor therapy to your unique needs, personality, and life experiences by utilizing an integrative approach. This basically means I don't practice a "one size fits all" type of therapy and will use interventions from several therapeutic approaches as long as it best serves your needs.

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.

Hey everyone! I’m an LPC with 5 years of clinical experience. Proud graduate of The University of Georgia and Clemson University. Go Dawgs!! Love to bring client interests into the therapy space, so it creates for a more engaging experience. Whether it’s art, music, sports, pop culture, or other hobbies, we can make it a therapeutic experience. My motto is “Be as transparent as you are comfortable, so we can get you to the place where you want to be.”

I work with people of all ages with a verity issues and concerns. The following are examples of issues I address on a regular basis. Individual Adult Therapy Many people have strong feelings like sadness, anxiety, anger, or despair and don’t really understand what causes them. Throughout our lives we receive feedback from family, teachers, clergy, friends, bosses, and sometimes total strangers. Negative and defeating thoughts are also caused by trauma, learning disabilities, and early failures to name a few. The feedback is in the form of statements about ourselves and they may or may not be true. But we get the negative words in our heads, and we unconsciously say the words so much that they become the things that we believe about ourselves. I have helped a great number of people with overcoming negative cognations by developing positive thoughts that aid in overcoming strong hurtful feeling that can lead to non productive behaviors and outcomes in all areas of life. By working together to resolve trauma and other hurtful situations you will find that you can succeed in almost anything that you work hard to accomplish. You can develop a strong can-do attitude and feel more relaxed, energetic, and happy. My practice welcomes LBGTQIA clients. I also work with people going through life transitions and relationship issues through senior adults. Individual Therapy for Children and Teens Some people believe that children are resilient and bounce back from anything stressful. There is some truth to that statement, but children carry the hurt they experience throughout their lives. As time passes, that hurt can cause negative thoughts, creating a personal script that interferes with life successes. Children and youth can disguise trauma by hiding their inner thoughts from parents, teachers, and caregivers, making them think all is well. Adults in these children’s lives are confused by certain behaviors the youth around them exhibit, but some behaviors are a cry for help. Depression and grief are not exclusive to adults. Depressed mood and grief often look like bad behavior exhibited by youth. Name-calling, bullying, fighting, talking back, disrespectful behavior, and many more ways of misbehavior can indicate a problem with deep sadness in a child. A depressed child displays many signs. Some children cry often, sleep too much or not enough, have nightmares, overeat, have failing grades, refuse to talk, or display a lack of interest in hobbies or activities usually enjoyed and isolation. ADHD is another problem. Additional issues that cause problems with schoolwork include ADHD Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. There are a lot of things to help a child with ADHD to be successful in school that are easy to implement at home and school. I believe that teamwork with school personnel can make the learning experience for a child with ADHD more pleasant for all involved. Therapy can help your child overcome the hurt. Sometimes parents and others fail to recognize the warning signs of the hurt experienced by children and teens. Therapy can help identify the causes of the anxiety, depression, and grief that your child feels and find ways to help them process how they feel. Through child therapy, I can help your child overcome the hurt they feel. In conclusion, my overall goal as your therapist is to help you achieve a positive attitude, help you work through concerns, and develop coping skills that lead to a peaceful and happy life.
