Your child or tween is described by teachers, coaches, and other adults as a pleasure to work with, but at home, you know they're struggling. They put so much pressure on themselves to be perfect, despite your reassurances. You're constantly soothing their worries or anxiety and they might be crying or having trouble sleeping at night. They always seem to see the worst in themselves or have low self esteem and you know they’re capable of so much more. You’ve read the parenting books and blogs, listened to the podcasts, and nothing is working. It’s exhausting! As a play therapist and mom myself, I get it!

Have you ever gone to a different country and not understood their native language? How difficult was it for you to get what you needed? Imagine you are a child, wanting to tell you what they are going through but cannot tell you in words. Play therapy is a language a child utilizes to express what cannot be vocalized. I am Whitney, trained to interpret this language to help you get the ease you need as a parent. You are a good parent, you are here; looking to do all you can for her child. Give me a call!

Less than 16% of therapists in Texas are male, which may very well be why so many men don’t go to therapy. I specialize in men’s issues including fatherhood, life transitions and stigma. Additionally, families often need support when raising their children. I work with families and children through difficult transitional times, such as grief, school anxiety, college transitions, and family communication.

Psynergy Psychological Associates is a full service psychotherapy office. We offer sliding scale fees for therapy with our LPC-Intern therapists. We are a society in which everyone of us - individually - is expected to "pull ourselves up by our proverbial boot-straps and keep going," which has its benefits and drawbacks, the biggest problem being that the metaphorical straps will inevitably break, often leaving individuals isolated and with relationship and/or work difficulties. I wonder if you could consider it an act of strength and courage - rather than weakness - both to seek help and then to risk receiving it?

Life feels like a constant game of catch-up, leaving you feeling drained and overwhelmed. You're often running late, forgetting important things, and struggling to keep up with your to-do list. People may think you're doing okay because you hide how you feel, but inside, you feel like you're falling apart. You feel consumed by worry, anxiety, and your fear of messing up and failing. You long to feel normal and in control of your life. You want to wake up refreshed and enjoy your life. You need a break from the noise in your head and a chance to catch your breath. I get it, and I can help you find joy and balance in your life.

As an adult there comes a time when emotions can defy logic and we exceed our ability to reason through and remedy how we are feeling on our own. Similarly, there are times when even the most supportive parent can reach an impasse and need additional support for their child; especially when children are engaging in difficult, overwhelming and even triggering behaviors.

The initial diagnostic consultation will be for one to two sessions and may include some diagnostic testing. This evaluation will help us to identify the most appropriate evidence based treatment for the specific areas of concern. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for depression and anxiety are some of the evidence based treatments that I commonly provide. My work with families focuses on providing the skills to both children and adolescents, and their parents.
