Self-Harming Therapists in Tarrant County, TX

As individuals, we experience influences, temptations, trials and tribulations in different times in our lives, which can leave you feeling hopeless, helpless, out of control or like you have failed. I understand how life and environments can become a routine, a pattern, and sometimes an unhealthy cycle. I am here to help you identify and make steps toward being the kind of person or family you want to be.

Our mission is to help individuals, families, and groups explore the issues keeping them from a satisfying and fulfilling life. FWCAI's clinically trained therapists offer a variety of therapeutic approaches, seeking the best solution for each client. We offer an integrated approach to counseling, using a biblical worldview and our skills and experience to offer counseling from a Christian perspective, although we also use traditional and cutting edge therapeutic approaches and integrate them into our practice where helpful. Not every client shares our worldview, and this integrated approach allows us to serve clients not seeking distinctly Christian counseling.

I enjoy working with individuals, couples and families who struggle with poor communication, boundary issues, behavioral problems, depression, anxiety, and self harming behaviors. I specialize in treating teens and adults by incorporating Reality Therapy with Art Therapy techniques. By using creative expression clients are able to get in touch with what they feel, learn what they want, evaluate their behavior and make a plan for achieving the outcomes they desire. By choosing healthy thoughts and behaviors the client chooses a more fulfilling life.

I am here to help you find your purpose again and start living! All it takes is you taking the first steps in wanting something different for yourself to get different results. Change can be hard, but simply surviving the day is harder.

Hi, I'm Genniffer with a G. Do you struggle with stress, anxiety, mental health, or trying to get your life together?

Sometimes life's challenges can leave you feeling defeated. The trauma you've experienced, the troubles you encounter, or even the major life changes that you go through can have you in a dark place. Regardless of what you have been through, there is always light at the end of the darkest tunnels. Sometimes, we may just need a little help getting out of that tunnel or seeing the light. My goal is to collaborate with you to help you get through whatever challenges you are struggling with overcoming and help you see that light in your life. I truly believe that there is no challenge that you can not overcome.

I believe people are put in front of one another for a specific reason, whether it be good or bad. If you're seeking me out, you must need help in some way and just can't figure it out on your own. I can help you get to a point where you are strong and making healthy choices to better your life. My goal is to get you to a point where you don't need me...because you will receive the coping tools you need to succeed in life on your own. Remember...this is for you.

Therapy is for you! So, I want to truly hear you, make you feel valued, and empathetically empower you to embrace and express your most authentic self as we collaboratively nurture a full and meaningful life—whatever this means for you. I not only believe you possess the capacity for positive transformation, but I also believe you are worthy of genuine loving-kindness, inner tranquility, and the opportunity to grow and go whichever direction fills your soul’s cup. As such, I cultivate a safe and validating space in which you can heal, change, unwind, vent, self-care, or whatever else you may need.

Maybe you struggle with waking up, feeling a sense of dread or panic almost everyday. You may wonder why others seem happy and you feel intensely unhappy. Or you may not believe you are worthy of love, and it’s confusing when others tell you how great you are. You may not have treasured childhood memories, because you had to be the adult to survive as a kid; being carefree as a kid was never an option for you. You may use a substance of choice to help you take the edge off daily life or stressful events where you may choose to pretend in place of being yourself. Or maybe you feel tired and uninterested in life All. The. Time.

Sometimes life feels heavy, and we are not meant to go through it alone. As a counselor, I hope to provide a safe space for my clients to explore their feelings, discover their purpose, and make lasting improvements to their overall health. I strive to work in collaboration with clients to achieve their goals and encourage growth and congruence.

Treatment plans involve both your vital input and my input putting together the most effective plan for helping you achieve the changes you're looking for using combination of cognitive behavioral and solution-orientated therapy and positive psychology.
