My background is in secondary education and school counseling, for 27 years. I have had my counseling license for 12 years. I am currently a part-time, private counselor, using online with adult clients and in person, for youth, through non-profit, school programs.
I earned an A.A. in Historical Studies from San Jacinto College, Central Campus, La Porte, Texas, June of 1991.

Trauma hurts. It can be sudden, life-altering and overwhelming, or chronic, subtle and nearly unnoticeable, but either way it can change the way we think about others, the world, and unfortunately, ourselves. Dealing with the aftermath—changes in our relationships, lashing out toward self or others, feeling nothing and/or everything all at once—is sometimes as hard as the initial event, especially when society, friends and family and our own minds tell us to “just get over it.” Worse, sometimes we aren’t even sure where the trauma came from in the first place, leaving us confused and even feeling hopeless. If you could just “get over it,” you would, but sometimes the brain simply cannot process traumatic events without help, and this is why trauma therapy exists. :)
I'm an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Texas. I've been in practice for nearly 15 years and have been doing EMDR therapy for 13 of those. I specialize in helping teens and adults process trauma of all kinds. My goal is to help my clients gain the skills needed to process and adapt to traumatic memories, and then allow them to do so in a safe environment. I teach them how to build boundaries and follow through, and to treat themselves with self-compassion rather than judgment and harsh expectations.
Trauma doesn’t have to ruin (or run) your life. If you’re hurting, please know I’d be happy to help in any way I can.

Dallas, TX - Accepting clients in TX
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!

That's right, to get myself fired! I believe that we were created in the image of the Creator which means the ability to love and be loved and to have the freedom to make wise decisions which help navigate us through this journey we are on. Thank you again for reading my biography. I wish you the freedom you are looking for and believe YOU ARE WORTH IT!

There's a reason they say "It takes a village to raise a child."
Parenting has lots of ups & downs and moments of uncertainty. Needless to say, it can get overwhelming. But there's no need to navigate these challenging times alone. I proudly serve parents & children who are struggling with big emotions & behaviors, developmental transitions, and/or child/adult mental health issues.
I strive to create a therapeutic atmosphere where individuals feel seen & heard. Through child-centered therapy, I can begin to communicate with your child and help guide them as s/he/they make sense of their feelings and behaviors.
But parents & caregivers need support, too!
Parent sessions are a time to focus on you & your experiences without judgment (and without kiddos). These sessions are flexible and can be a place for you to decompress, to ask Qs or explore parenting styles & strategies. I'm happy to meet in person or virtually.

Park Row, TX - Accepting clients in TX
I'm Keyonne Spencer, a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor with a passion for mental health and wellness. Originally from the vibrant city of New Orleans, I've dedicated the past ten years to providing compassionate and effective therapy in my private practice. I hold a Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Capella University, equipping me with the skills to address a wide range of relational and individual issues.
In my practice, I specialize in working with individuals and couples ages 13 and up who are grappling with anxiety, depression, and various other mental health challenges. Drawing from evidence-based practices and my integrative approach, I strive to create a safe and supportive space where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgment.
I believe in the power of collaboration and tailor my therapeutic approach to meet each client's unique needs and goals. Whether utilizing cognitive-behavioral techniques to address specific symptoms or delving into psychodynamic exploration to uncover underlying patterns, my aim is to empower clients to navigate life's challenges and cultivate resilience.
Beyond my work as a therapist, I find joy in exploring the world through travel and indulging in my guilty pleasure of binge-watching HGTV shows. These pursuits recharge my spirit and inspire creativity, allowing me to bring fresh perspectives and energy to my practice.
Overall, my mission is to guide individuals and couples on their journey toward healing, growth, and fulfillment, both within themselves and in their relationships. I'm deeply committed to helping my clients build resilience, strengthen connections, and embrace the fullness of life's possibilities.

Houston, TX - Accepting clients in TX
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and the founder of Authentically Me Therapy, where I help people who are tired of shrinking, faking, or fixing everything for everyone else. My approach blends deep reflection, creative tools, and grounded conversation. Therapy with me is equal parts warmth and truth—you’ll be challenged when needed, affirmed when it matters, and reminded that healing doesn’t mean becoming someone new. It means coming home to who you’ve always been.

Hello there, my name is Katarzyna Kundera Byrd, but you can call me Kash. I look forward to meeting you! I received my Master's in Social work from University of West Florida in 2016, and became licensed in 2018. Since receiving my LCSW, I have had the pleasure of working with a large range of clients, from specialized foster care, to being a medical social worker for the geriatric population. I am currently licensed in Texas, Florida, and Colorado, and work with the 18 years old+ population. My specialty is grief, but I have helped clients in other areas of mental health, such as anxiety, depression, and trauma. I tailor my approaches to clients and their needs, because therapy is not "one size-fits-all".
