Hi, I’m Meg — a Licensed Professional Counselor with over a decade of experience helping adults untangle emotional overload, anxious attachment, low self-esteem, relationship struggles, and toxic family dynamics. My work is rooted in authenticity and deep emotional presence. Whether you're navigating a difficult relationship, recovering from burnout, or trying to rediscover joy and clarity in your life, I provide a space where you can exhale, explore your inner world, and build real tools to feel empowered again.
I specialize in guiding women (especially Gen X, millennial, and Gen Z clients) through the often invisible labor of being the “strong one.” Clients often come to me feeling exhausted, dysregulated, or stuck in patterns that feel hard to shift — and together, we explore what’s underneath the surface.

As a counselor, I strive to build relationships where my clients feel connected and fully accepted in a safe and compassionate environment. I enjoy working from a collaborative, strengths-based approach; assisting and supporting my clients to be change agent of their own lives. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, disruptive behaviors, relationship challenges, self-esteem, trauma, and issues relating to race, culture, gender and religion. In working alongside my clients, I utilize interventions to facilitate my client’s discovery of their own strengths, resilience, and power as they heal.

Hi, I'm Emily Hoelscher, a Licensed Professional Counselor with twenty one years of experience in the state of Texas. I have experience working with adults, adolescents, and children both in individual and group settings. In addition, I specialize in working with couples and families.
I believe the best treatment comes from establishing trust in the therapeutic relationship. You want to make sure you feel comfortable and that I am the right fit for you as a counselor. In counseling, I aim to be supportive and compassionate, while actively listening to and respecting the issues that my clients are facing. I want to meet my clients where they are at, whether it be in struggles or encouraging achievements as counseling progresses.
My counseling style combines strength-based, cognitive-behavioral, and solution-focused approaches to help individuals achieve their therapeutic goals. Identifying one's strengths and coping skills that can be used to help work through various issues is an important part of my therapy approach.
In counseling, I want to see my clients have hope for their future, and that from the therapeutic relationship that they gain skills and confidence to manage what may come in life. If you feel like I would be the right counselor for you, I would be honored to work with you.

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker currently residing in Texas. I have over 12 years of experience working in mental health and within the last year I have obtained my Doctorate in Behavioral Health. I help clients struggling with depression, anxiety, grief and trauma amongst other diagnoses. I am also a Christian and when clients decide that they prefer Christian counseling, I am able to provide those services as well. I believe that each individual is different and therefore, the approach should be tailored to suit that individual.

Frequently asked questions
Why filter by Texas rather than a city
like Dallas?
When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Texas from Houston to Austin! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Texas.
Will my therapist take Blue Cross Blue Shield?
Yes! If you use Blue Cross Blue Shield you’ll be asked to verify your Member ID at the time you book the appointment. However, if you don’t have Blue Cross Blue Shield you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.
How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?
The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.
What are the "Clients say I'm" badges?
Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.
Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?
Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.
What to expect during your first session?
Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.
Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
