I work with adolescents and adults of all identities who are open to trying new healing modalities. I enjoy using a variety of tools in sessions including oracle cards, tarot cards, journaling, and EFT or tapping. I have experience navigating and understanding for clients and myself what it is like to live with chronic illness and complex medical issues, particularly chronic pelvic conditions including endometriosis and PCOS. I am happy to see clients virtually or in-person for those fully vaccinated for COVID-19.
Elaine G Tuccio
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW, EMDR
Verified
When life and daily stresses pull you down the shame and fear from earlier wounds can wear away tender, hard earned trust in yourself and with others. The result usually is a sense of emotional isolation and loneliness. It takes time but change is possible. Based on advanced neuroscience and better understandings new counseling alternatives are available. My office provides a safe and therapeutic environment to heal and to learn how to leave behind old judgments, frustrations, worries and unhappiness. It is a place to find your true self. To find the purpose and meaning missing in your life, marriage, family, friendships and career.

Rachel Glaser
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Verified
Sometimes anxiety, stress, pain and uncomfortable feelings run our lives. My passion lies in helping you to find freedom and movement from these uncomfortable feelings rather than stagnation and suffering. Together, we will explore how you respond to uncomfortable feelings and find healthier, more productive and more genuine ways of responding that fit with your values and move you closer to your full potential in all areas of your life.
Tyson Davis
Psychologist, PsyD
Verified
I view therapy as a deeply transformative experience where people may discover more of who they are and ultimately find a greater sense of peace. Our suffering is often a result of a complex set of circumstances involving our sense of self, our relationships with others, our thoughts, and our feelings. I believe each person deserves to be understood in all of his or her complexity. It is only within an open and accepting relationship with another that we can begin to experience ourselves and our relationships in a new and healing way.
Esmé Valette
Licensed Professional Counselor Associate, MA, EdM, EMDR
Verified
I strive to create a therapeutic environment where you feel comfortable expressing whatever is on your mind without fear of judgment. I believe that you are the expert in your own healing, and I will work collaboratively with you to identify and reach your treatment goals. I use strengths- based approaches while incorporating evidence based methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to stimulate the brain’s natural ability to heal and address problems stemming from trauma.

Kelly Harold Edwards
Marriage & Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, LPC
Verified
I work with individuals who are struggling with their relationships or feeling stuck in a difficult place in their lives. I support clients in healing from shame and relational wounds towards living authentically in the present. I believe it takes courage to be our true selves, and in our work I encourage clients to stand in their truth and live in a way that feels fulfilling. I work with couples who are experiencing conflict, disconnection, or are recovering from betrayal. I help couples learn relational health by shedding light on dysfunctional patterns, improving communication of needs and feelings, and practicing co-regulation.

Feeling overwhelmed from reading therapist profiles? I understand! Please read this profile if you are looking for a grief and trauma specialist. I primarily work with bereaved adults, and also with adults who have experienced loss of health, serious accidents, loss of relationships, job loss and other recent traumatic experiences. I primarily work with adults individually, and sometimes with couples who are grieving a shared loss. Our work together will be determined by the needs of your nervous system, by our therapeutic relationship, and the specialized therapeutic tools that I bring in support of your healing process.

I specialize in working with stress, anxiety disorders, women's issues, and trauma. I believe that through self-awareness, self-compassion, and self-love we can strengthen and grow the relationships in our lives and within ourselves. You may be struggling with issues related to relationships, confidence, anxiety, or major life changes. I am passionate about helping women navigate the most important relationships in their lives. I understand that the patterns are wired so deep in our nervous system that even when we consciously want to change how we show up it can feel impossible.

Patti Kay McCullar
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Verified
I work with individuals and families who are struggling with difficult issues such as depression, divorce, or mental illness. Conflicts, within and between people, lie at the core of emotional distress. Divorce, depression, substance abuse make setting healthy boundaries difficult, and before the individual knows it, he or she is living in a state of compromise. I focus on people who are wanting to get out of a compromised state and build healthy relationships that protect personal space and are conducive to reciprocity.
Elise Sillers
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Verified
I am a therapist trained to listen, nurture and work with you. This might be repairing relationships, healing from trauma, recovering from addiction, managing anxiety or depression. I see clients both face to face in my office as well as online within the state of Texas through HIPAA-compliant confidential video. Clients come to therapy when life is not working. Joining with a therapist allows patterns to be investigated and altered, insight to be gained and distress to be tolerated. With guidance, clients set goals for therapy and I work to meet those goals. They are a benchmark for progress.
