Therapists in Tyler, TX

Working from an attachment view point, I strive to provide nurturing and consistent care. I look at how the functioning of family system and caregivers shapes thought patterns, self-images, and behaviors.

Life can be more challenging than you expect, and sometimes you need help in moving forward. In those times, you need someone who understands you and can coach you in finding a healthy way to manage what life throws at you. A good therapist is like a fellow traveler who is able to help you make sense of life and relationships. In many life situations, a supportive counselor who understands how challenging life is can be a helpful part of your journey.

Do the people around you rely on you because you’re an “over-achiever” or the one who always has it all together? You're putting on a smile while you say “yes” to one more thing, but inwardly you're panicking about how overwhelmed you feel. Or maybe you feel like you’re never perfect enough, no matter how hard you’re trying. Do you wear your constant busyness like a badge of honor because “everyone is just busy, right?” and to ask to slow down might seem like you're just lazy? I bet you look calm and collected on the outside, but do your racing thoughts keep you constantly on edge? If you're nodding your head right now, I get it.

Do you find yourself in the middle of what seems like an unsolvable conflict? Sometimes, we all need a road map to find our way back home to ourselves and each other.

Marriage counseling, couple counseling and family therapy are areas I enjoy, along with helping navigate addiction and its effects on loved ones.

We all need someone to hear our story, to respect our tears, and to help us be courageous as we walk the path toward healing. I stay present through your pain, hurt, and discovery. Trauma, doubt, and fear can easily consume our thoughts, and provoke emotional distress and a sense of loss. Beginning the processing step can feel scary, but it certainly doesn't have to be a journey you take alone. I am here, ready to hear your story and help you navigate these feelings and reconnect you with your authentic self. Let me know how I can help.

Becoming a parent often brings up a wide range of emotions. Sometimes it is the long awaited reward after struggling with infertility, or bearing the grief of miscarriage and loss. Sometimes it is the excitement of adding to a growing family. Sometimes it is the fear of reliving physical, emotional, or mental pain and hardship. Sometimes it is grappling with the societal and cultural expectations of parenting. The experiences that arise for parents during conception, pregnancy, birth, postpartum and parenting deserve a space for specialized care and attention. This specialized care is what I offer in support of your goals.

Hi, I'm Lily! I am here to lend support to those facing life's challenges - whether it is chronic illness, trauma, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, or whatever else life throws your way. My passion is assisting individuals who, due to negative childhood, family, religious, societal, and/or cultural experiences learned to prioritize others' needs and hide parts of themselves to make others comfortable. My goal? To help you heal your inner child and build a harmonious connection between your brain, mind, and body.

You’re fucking exhausted. This isn't where you thought you would be at this age. You think you should have already figured out your relationships, your career, your family, etc. Isn’t there more to life? All you want to do is crawl into bed and pull the covers over your head. The mean voice inside keeps telling you that you aren’t good enough, that you don’t deserve to rest. “Take care of everyone else before taking care of yourself." “You have to be strong…All The Damn Time.“ You can’t say no because then they won’t like you."

Life can be challenging at times and taking that first step of deciding to begin counseling can be intimidating. Kudos to you for beginning that process by looking into finding a counselor! Whether it be anxiety, depression, or just a general feeling of overwhelm that you are battling, I invite you to take that next step toward healing. One small step in the right direction can make all the difference. It is my aim to foster a supportive and safe environment in which pain, challenges, and fears can be safely explored.

I love working with anyone that feels like something has not been going right for them, be it for a long time or just a little while. I enjoy working with people that have anxiety, depression, trauma, attachment difficulties and people that just are feeling, again, like something is off. I seek to both equip my clients with the skills and tools they need to more effectively get through their lives as well as address inner difficulties so that the quality and satisfaction of life can be increased.
