Waxahachie, TX - Accepting clients in TX
Hello,
I’m excited you found me. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor in the great state of Texas offering many years of education and counseling experience in different settings including individual sessions, homeless shelters, church settings, and community outreach.
Are you currently struggling with anxiety (often masked as stress), trauma, or even identity issues? Are you trying to navigate these areas of your life alone, because you feel no one truly understands what you are going through?
You have been trying to navigate these areas in your life the best that you know how. However, you are growing tired and desire to try something different. I have worked with many who have felt the same as you. I hear you and I do understand. I would be honored to walk alongside you, while you are on your healing journey to becoming a better you.
If you have ever wondered if therapy was for you?
I’d say, yes, therapy is for you if you find yourself struggling to make decisions. Don’t know rather you are coming or going. Unsure about who you are currently. You are struggling to find peace.
The provider will send a video link prior to the session.

Treat others the way you want to be treated is the motto I live by. I want to be treated kindly, I want to be heard and I want to feel I matter. This is how I will treat you, without strings or hesitation.
I have a story just as you do. I have been lucky to choose a career that has enabled me to know when I need to talk to someone, enabled me to learn and use coping skills that work and has also enabled me to see the beauty through the broken pieces.
Growing up I was a nosey child, I always wanted to know the "why", I still do! This personality trait led me on a path where I have been able to meet people from all walks of life, people who seemingly burned every bridge walked over, people with no hope as well as people who just were going through a rough patch. All these individuals have helped me become the person and the therapist I am today.
I am truly excited to hear people’s story, restore faith and be the constant in people’s lives. Give me a chance to hear your story, you are not alone!

Abilene, TX - Accepting clients in TX
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in central Texas. I believe that we are all beings who want healing in all aspects of our life: physical, emotional, social and spiritual.
The differences between the emotional health we have and the health we want can create tension between our current situation and our self image and power. Often, we don't know how to make lasting changes. That change struggle can be too difficult to face without strong support and the realization someone understands, supports and affirms your ability to learn new coping skills.
My counseling approach is educational, and we begin with where you are emotionally now. I value treating everyone with respect and kindness. We move at your pace. I will assign homework if you want to move more quickly.

I am passionate about creating a safe and collaborative space for healing, utilizing evidence-based approaches that are tailored to each individual's needs. My aim is to guide clients toward recognizing their resilience and celebrating their growth. Additionally, I incorporate the calming presence of my therapy dog, Nox, into sessions for added support when appropriate. Nox is a therapy dog who has visited local hospitals, schools and organizations within the community.

Hi, I’m Michele! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor (LCDC) providing therapy services in Texas and Utah. I have been in private practice for over 10 years and I can see you in person or virtually.
My practice philosophy is rooted in the strengths perspective, where we highlight how you have survived and build on your unique resilience to help you thrive.
I treat my clients with respect and compassion and listen carefully with empathy to your problems. I will hold a safe and confidential space for you to share your inner most thoughts and feelings. We will work together to help you become aware of your thoughts and feelings about a problem, and how to look at those problems in different, more manageable ways. Rather than adopting only one methodology for all individuals and issues, I draw from a variety of methods that are most effective for each individual and situation.
