Therapists in Angleton, TX

**very limited availability- Hello there! I’m Chandler, a Trauma-Informed and CBT-oriented psychotherapist. In therapy, my priority is fostering a therapeutic connection that feels safe and open. My mission is to allow space for my clients to explore themselves with curiosity and security. My greatest joy as a therapist is walking with my clients as they uncover a deeper understanding of themselves. Experiencing these moments and the power behind them is a special honor that brings passion to my work.

My goal is to support and empower people to live optimally, achieve wellness, and individual goals. I believe that counseling is a dynamic and holistic process, and I strives to promote unconditional positive regard, empathy, congruence, and respect in every counseling setting. I enjoy working with clients from diverse and multicultural backgrounds. I am multilingual and have a working knowledge of English, Bengali, Urdu (limited), and Hindi. I provide low-cost counseling options to clients. Population Served: Children, Adolescents, Couples, Families.

I am a Multi-Licensed Practitioner of the Healing Arts since 1998, speaker, and author. I hold four licenses as a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist Supervisor, Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor, Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor, & Acupuncture Detoxification Specialist. Nationally, I hold a designation as a National Credential Counselor (NCC) Master Addiction Counselor (MAC), Substance Abuse Professional (SAP), Somatic Experience Practitioner (SEP)

TODAY IS THE DAY YOUR SPOUSE DISCOVERED your pornography stash, payments made to massage parlors and prostitutes. Perhaps your MANAGER DISCOVERED you were VIEWING PORNOGRAPHY AT WORK or engaged in INAPPROPRIATE SEXUAL BEHAVIOR WITH CO-WORKERS. YOUR JOB MAY NOW BE AT RISK. Your life is in CRISIS. You may also be experiencing SUICIDAL THOUGHTS or have PANIC ATTACKS THAT YOUR WORLD IS COMING TO AN END. I can assure you YOUR WORLD IS NOT COMING TO AN END BUT YOU HAVE TO TAKE ACTION!

I believe that every client has the tools and knowledge necessary to improve their lives. This knowledge becomes hidden by the stress and responsibilities we face on a daily basis. My role as a therapist is to help you uncover those tools in order for you to live a more fulfilling life. If your family is facing a difficult challenge, if you need a different perspective on a situation, or if you are at a loss of what to do with your teen's behavior, I would be honored to help you throughout the process of positive change.

My practice is primarily family therapy where multiple family members participate. The majority of the families I work with have at least one, if not many, of the following diagnoses: AD/HD, oppositional defiant disorder, selective mutism, learning disorders (dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, pragmatic communication, etc), social communication disorder, autism, anxiety, depression, OCD, PTSD, and/or bipolar disorder. I actively use Accelerated Resolution Therapy(ART) to help people gain relief from trauma and persistent unwanted thoughts. I also offer comprehensive reports for social security applications.

Do you need help with mood related issues? Let me help you navigate the difficulties in your life, and find hope for your future. Call for an appointment today.

Journeys of Change Counseling PLLC offers Individual, Marriage and Family Counseling Services specializing in addiction, relationship and mental health issues. We offer services to children, adolescents, adults (including the geriatric population), couples and families.

You seem to be good at everything *except* your relationship. You know something is off in your relationship, but maybe you just can't quite put your finger on it. Or you know exactly what the problem is, but you're clueless on how to change it. You don't want to give up, walk away, throw in the towel. You want to fight for your marriage. Perhaps there's be infidelity, perhaps many times over. Maybe your partner hid major issues or events, like debts or friendships, and now you can't heal from the betrayal and trust your partner again. Or perhaps you are the one holding the secret, and the shame is keeping you imprisoned in fear.

I provide services for the following: Child/Adolescent - development, application, and evaluation of behavioral/cognitive-behavioral interventions for child/teen populations (e.g., under-served, children of divorce, juvenile victims of violent crimes, children with conduct and personality disorders, children with developmental disorders, and adolescents with chemical dependency and life challenges). Adults/Elderly - individual, couples and family psychotherapy (e.g., marital, parenting, aging, divorce issues, chemical dependency, mood disorders, depression and anxiety, personality disorders, post-traumatic stress, and LGBTQ).

I have experience working with a wide variety of life problems and mental health disorders, but my primary interests include depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), academic issues, panic/phobias, anger management, addiction, couples, marriage, and family relationship issues.

Each of us has a "story" to tell: where we've come from, what we've experienced, and what we hope for. Things don't always turn out the way we imagine they will. We experience sadness, disappointment, stress and anxiety - sometimes we cope effectively, and sometimes we feel overwhelmed and at a loss. I have a special interest in helping people adjust to life events and transitions such as school/college, marriage, parenting, divorce and mid-life. I also have experience working with anxiety, depression, eating disorders, learning differences, ADHD and addictions.

Overwhelmed? Feeling distant from loved ones? Desiring for life to be different? These feelings and experiences are trying to tell you something. Together we will find the answers, and turn these feelings around so that you can get back on track to living the life you want. Individuals, couples and families that participate in a combination of our services such as DBT skills classes or a one day workshop for couples based on "The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work" by John Gottman, has shown to bring about faster change.

We all make mistakes, have struggles, and even regret things from our past. But you are not your mistakes, you are not your struggles, and you are here now with the power to shape your day and your future. I believe that everyone is capable of change. In working with people, I feel that it is important to honor an individual's past, listen to their personal experiences, and respect their beliefs to better understand how they make meaning of their world. I am committed to providing a safe and non-judgmental environment that fosters self-exploration and personal growth.

My counseling services are dedicated to helping clients resolve family, marriage, relationship, trauma, addiction and depression issues. In a non-judgmental atmosphere filled with understanding and respect, I am passionate about helping clients begin the healing process and find their purpose. I feel strongly about empowering people to help them get control of their lives... whether they want to recover from abuse, move forward after the end of a relationship, conquer an addiction or find peace after a loss.
