Somatic Therapists in 77005

Hello! I am a Licensed Psychologist (LP). I run a virtual private practice offering telehealth services for those who want to feel more confident and competent in their daily lives. Becoming more skillful in managing challenging feelings and thought patterns can improve your experience both personally and professionally.

Were you abused, neglected, and traumatized? Were you raised by a tiger mom? Did you raise yourself and everyone else? Do you feel frozen, numb, and disconnected from your body? Do you feel like there's something wrong with you? Do you have a need to be perfect? Do you feel anxious even during downtime? Are you always running and doing and still feel it's not enough? Is food your only friend? Yet, on the outside, you look like the most put-together person. If only people knew what was on the inside.

Intimate relationships are so important in all our lives! We need to experience them as safe and secure to be okay, to grow, and to thrive. Moreover, problems in those close relationships can throw everything into chaos. It includes problems in the relationship you have with yourself. Let me help you with those problems. Starting from where you are now, you can come to distinguish, prioritize, and meet your core needs; work to resolve the impacts of traumatic experiences, and develop safe secure attachments. Come. Whether we work on these problems with you alone, as a couple, or in a group, your relationships will benefit from it.

Hello! I’m Alex, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with experience working with adults, emerging adults, and adolescents in individual, group, and family settings. I am a queer-identified, HAES aligned, neurodiversity affirming, and LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist. In our space, it is my goal to provide a warm, compassionate, and welcoming place where you can feel safe to share about whatever is coming up for you. I’m passionate about working with women, LGBTQIA+ adults and adolescents, neurodivergent individuals, and emerging adults.

Are you struggling with grief, hopelessness, anxiety, relationship issues, and life in general and want to move toward purpose? Are you looking for a therapist who accepts you as you are, but also provides guidance where needed and is honest and authentic? Then, we might work well together. My ideal client is a person of any age, gender, abilities, race, heritage, sexual orientation, and belief system who is looking to heal from grief or trauma and wants to move from pain to purpose. I work holistically, use EMDR, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) Tapping, IADC and parts work, and consider somatic aspects.

If you're here it means you are considering starting or continuing your journey towards healing. It can be overwhelming looking for help, not knowing what the process is like, or how to choose therapist that feels right to you. In my office you can bring what you need, whatever that looks like. Get comfortable, maybe you want to kick off your shoes and use the weighted blanket; maybe swearing will help. It's not an overly formal, clinical setting but a place to come as you are as we gently explore how your past and present are interacting and hijacking the future you want.

Am I a bad person? This is a question we hear a lot. If you feel lost, drained, stuck, unworthy, and confused, we understand you. At Point of Convergence Therapy, we help people who are hurting and exhausted. This usually comes from complex trauma and branches off into things like anxiety, self-esteem, and identity issues. We know that healing doesn't happen in a vacuum and that people need people. Since finding a therapist can be difficult, we're happy to offer free 30-minute consultations so you can get to know us before committing.

In a therapeutic relationship, it’s about you. It’s about listening deeply. It’s about asking the right questions and holding space for precious silence. It’s about utilizing a diverse range of clinical skills and life experiences to assist you with what is happening in your life right now, and teaching you skills that will allow you to help yourself in the future. We cannot change the past or other people, but we can still grow and change and find ways to thrive.

Are you ready for therapy? If you're frustrated, feeling alone in the struggle and interested in understanding more about the patterns that have kept you (and your relationship) stuck, it’s time. Therapy with me will help you get started on the path to making real, lasting changes. While taking the first step to meet a psychotherapist can be difficult, your relationships and mental health are worth it. I can offer you the kind of support, guidance and gentle feedback that may be useful, no matter the challenge. Let's take the next step together. I'm looking forward to meeting you. Virtual teletherapy is done using Zoom.

Mental health therapy is a intimate collaboration in self-discovery, relationship preservation, mental health maintenance, and relief of suffering. It is my job to center you and meet you in your challenges (stress, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, self criticalness, etc.). I provide support to individuals, partners, and families who are motivated towards greater understandings of their experiences in order to find peace and/or heal connections in their relationship with themselves and others.

Sex addiction doesn't have to continue ruining your life. Life may feel hopeless, and your anxiety may be higher than you've ever felt before. Yet, it doesn't have to stay this way. My clients all have two things in common: 1) They want to be here for themselves, even when others are making them, and 2) They work to achieve their goals. They come to me usually in a state of panic or depression, or some even come in when their world is chaotic and out of control. When you're ready to tackle your issues, give me a call.

Are you standing in the face of uncertainty in your life or career and confused as to how to move forward? Does performance paralysis settle in when considering a risk? Having lived through Hurricane Katrina, resulting in an abrupt relocation to St. Louis in 2008 (after forty years in Louisiana), I can relate to life being out of balance, starting over, and the need for grounding. After fourteen years in St. Louis, I've recently chosen to relocate to Houston to be near family and have expanded my virtual practice to several states. Life is about transition, investing in a balanced life, so that we can draw from each area as needed.

As of an April 24 2024, I have a few openings! Please read this all the way thru, you won't regret it!..... Have you ever sworn to yourself and others that you were never drinking/drugging again?.....And truly meant it?....only to go back on your word soon or eventually? ..........What changed?......You will come to see how it was your MIND that changed. If we don't address how the Mind Drives Relapse, it will continue. It all starts in your BRAIN & experienced as your Mind. I will provide you the tools needed as well as counseling each step of the way. I use an integrated approach blending neuroscience, spirituality and psychology.

Are you feeling like life's throwing out more than you can handle, or that you are never quite good enough no matter how hard you try? Maybe you've experienced trauma, are struggling in relationships, feel anxious & depressed, or perhaps you don't know what's off! I'm honored to work with courageous people (like you) who are "in it" and searching for healing, connection, and change. Together, we'll explore and make sense of your struggles as we figure out what you need to feel better. The first step may be a scary one, but you're worth it!

What makes building and maintaining a personal relationship so difficult? It can be many things. Past and present experiences, patterns that you can't seem to break out of, childhood traumas, family influences, abuse (sexual, emotional or physical), post-traumatic stress issues, or your own expectations and anxieties. All of these factors can affect your relationships with family, friends and romantic partners.

Seeking out help can be hard. But it’s a brave first step in working with issues that hold us back on our journey of healing and self discovery. I work with clients that find themselves feeling stuck or dissatisfied in various aspects of their lives, be it relationships, family dynamics, or careers. I also specialize in adolescents (and their families) who struggle with self worth and discovering who they are in the midst of a challenging stage of life. I believe in the importance of understanding how our past experiences and family dynamics shape who we are as unique individuals.

Every one of us will experience crisis in our lifetime. These intense times of difficulty may be easy to name: relationship strife, a significant loss, or traumatic events. Other times you may be living with the gnawing sense that the life you’ve built doesn’t serve who you truly are. You may be experiencing anxiety and depression, unfulfilling relationships, or a resurfacing of unmet grief or trauma. No matter what distress has arrived at your door, it’s possible that you feel lost and confused and wonder what you can do. You’re not alone. I’ve been there, and so has almost everyone you know.

Aging, death, break ups, brain injury, major health diagnosis, addiction, family conflict, and dozens of life's other challenges are accompanied by grief. Grief and loss is part of a universal human experience that, despite it's commonality, is just as difficult every time for every one of us. As much as we'd like for these feelings to just disappear they can cause us to feel overwhelmed and hopeless until we find a way to integrate them, not "get over" them. I offer telehealth visits to adults and older adults in Texas and am accepting new clients.

My priority is to create a therapeutic environment in which clients feel comfortable and accepted. I am here to support your desire to feel better and together we will tend to the root causes of whatever is bringing you to therapy. I’m also a Registered Dance/Movement Therapist, which means that I pay attention to the whole person- mind/body/spirit. In session, we will take time to “be with”emotional discomfort which is much more manageable with support. I hope to create space for your unique process of expression via non-judgement, while simultaneously helping you to identify coping tools that are already stored in your body.
