Therapists in Meridian, TX

Hi There! I'm Kristin and I have served as a Therapist, School Counselor, Child Life Specialist and Parent Educator. I enjoy meeting my clients right where they are in their life journey, exploring how they arrived to that place and then setting goals to achieve through our time together. Upon request, I also provide Christian-Based/Biblical Counseling.

No matter how hard you try, you can’t seem to entirely escape your past. Even during moments of joy and elation, there’s still a darkness that clings to you and casts a shadow over everything you do.Part of you wants to explore these past wounds so that you can finally process and get over them. But you’re terrified to open the floodgates of that pain. Besides, you’ve lived with it for this long, and while it’s not ideal, at least it’s a pain you’re familiar with. However, you’re starting to realize that the longer you allow unresolved issues to fester, the more harmful and complex they become. Something needs to change.

My counseling style is practical and positive. I am passionate and I treat you with respect. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, dialectical-behavioral, reality therapy, and is solution-focused.

I am a firm believer of meeting people where they are in life. My therapeutic process focuses on working collaboratively to address issues and find solutions that work best for the individual. My goal is to establish a safe relationship, instill hope, and empower individuals by emphasizing the power of doing what is in their control.

MY GOAL: to promote mental, physical, & spiritual health for people at each developmental phase of life. Your struggles might include mood disorder or inefficient brain function. My broad-range experience: studied at Ohio State University under top-ranked professors in Counseling Psychology and brain injury. RESIDENCIES: Minneapolis VA hospital; Ohio State's brain injury rehab unit. 17+ years inpatient rehab neuropsychology experience at Baylor Rehab Dallas, Pate Rehab. 1990-95: Christian counseling & neuropsychology at Minirth-Meier Clinic. Adjunct Professor: LPC-level Counseling degree program at Dallas Theological Seminary.

Accepting NEW clients. I feel privileged that you are reading this to potentially help you, a loved one, or someone you know. I would love to join you on your journey of nurturing your emotional health. Are you the one that has been considering counseling, but keep talking yourself out of it because you have lived with many of these symptoms for so long, and think you can just keep going on with them. My philosophy in counseling is to help others be the best version of themselves, promote healing, reach their potential with their goals, guide them on how to get there while overcoming any barriers.

I strive to provide a safe space where you feel supported, accepted, and challenged as you work through your struggles. No matter where you are in your journey, my passion is walking with you as you explore your desired change, how to get there, and what holds you back from it – whether it’s individual, couple’s, or family issues, I would like to be a part of your process.

Sometimes it seems that nothing works. You may feel angry, sad, or out of control and need help to navigate through rough times. I have been there! I was inspired to be a counselor by my own struggles with family codependency. There is hope! Through a combination of therapeutic techniques, cognitive behavioral, solution focused, reality, family systems, feminist, and humanistic therapies, I will help you identify what is holding you back. The goal is to provide you with the insights and tools you need to move past old, limiting beliefs and behaviors. I will provide dedicated, confidential listening to create a bright future.

Welcome my name is Kareem Hicks and I commend anyone that has the desire to grow. Often times, our environments & comfort zones may stagnate or stunt our growth. To me there is no such thing as the ideal client when it comes to therapy. The ideal client to me would be a client who is willing to act and commit on barriers that they are facing currently. The purpose of therapy is to align the individual with the tools to overcome barriers that hinder growth and stability.
