Spirituality Therapists in College Station, TX

Living easier begins here. You’ve taken the first step to living with less distress and more ease. Inviting someone to join your journey to fly easy, breaking out of the chains, is a sacred invitation. I’m honored you’re here. I provide counseling and psychotherapy to adult individuals, groups, couples, and other relationships for persons located in Texas.  I can help you not only make sense of what’s going on but see things differently, with some new tools, a deeper understanding, and a fresh perspective so you can define and navigate the future you desire.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate (LPC-A) supervised by Jennifer Madere, LPC-S. I provide counseling for adolescents (14+), parents, and adults and strive to cultivate a safe space for growth and exploration. I have and continue to seek specialized training in working with teens, parents, and trauma-informed practice. I utilize a person-centered, whole-person approach (mind-body-soul) and have experience working with anxiety, depression, life transitions, and vocational/relational discernment.

I enjoy serving individuals and couples braving the tough and rewarding work of therapy. My approach is to provide a safe environment in which my clients cultivate greater personal insight and emotional intelligence that ultimately promotes self-understanding, healing from past/present wounds and growth toward realizing a more whole self and/or relationship. I work with adults and couples with wide-ranging concerns including depression, anxiety, adjustment, identity, unwanted sexual behaviors, marriage & relationship concerns, and issues related to faith. I utilize Gottman Method Couples Therapy concepts in my work with couples.

Quoting David Mathis, "Poor listening diminishes another person, while good listening invites them to exist and matter. Positively, then, good listening requires concentration and means we're in with both ears, and that we hear the other person out till they're done speaking. Rarely will the speaker begin with what's most important, and deepest. We need to hear the whole train of thought, all the way to the caboose, before starting across the tracks." Who then should set up an appointment? Ideal clients are males, couples or families seeking life transformation, relationship growth or reconciliation or spiritual formation for life's journey.

The world is not always an easy place to live. Often our circumstances are beyond our control, but we can learn to change the lens through which we view our circumstances. Through counseling, you and I can work together to help you develop coping strategies, increase personal growth, strengthen your emotional well-being, address unresolved issues, explore patterns of behavior, and improve interpersonal relationships. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental place for clients ages 18 and up to process feelings and navigate the difficult issues of life. If you live in Texas, I would love to support your emotional needs through Telehealth!

Life is full of transitions and sometimes we need help navigating our journey. Sometimes we need a safe nonjudgmental space to explore and work through our concerns, feelings or life issues. Sometimes we just need a quick affirmation that we are on the right path and other times we need help finding the way. My goal is to provide a space where every individual and couple feels heard, accepted and encouraged. I want to provide a personalized approach that helps empower you to have insight, make changes, overcome your life's obstacles and find balance in your life -mind, body and spirit.

I have been in practice for 20 years. I work with many individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, grief, and major life adjustments. I am certified in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for Treatment of anxiety disorders, OCD, social anxiety and phobias.

Relating to people in an authentic, psychological way is my favorite pastime, and lucky for me it’s also my job!

“Life can take you where you least expect it to, and it can throw you for a loop. One of the hardest things to do, is to reach out and ask for help, but it is also the most courageous thing to do. As a therapist, I work collaboratively with people to develop a life plan that will promote their life satisfaction. I believe each individual is unique and it is important to develop a safe therapeutic relationship to work together on your desired life goals" Shelly Coufal, MA, LPC, NCC

When we are faced with difficult situations, we often find ourselves stuck in a spiral of negative, toxic thoughts. These thoughts become feelings and we are left with pain, deep sadness, fear, regret, isolation, frustration, anger, anxiety, embarrassment, and possible physical ailments. Our feelings can keep us from pursuing our goals, our purpose, and from being the person we were created to be. My goal is to meet you where you are, offering an authentic emotional connection focused on solutions and strategies that foster personal healing and desired change.

CSCC's approach to counseling is one that first emphasizes the critical need we all have for our stories to be heard and known. Moving from intellectually sharing the details of our lives to building a sense of knowing one another and being together in the context of relationship is a process for which we rarely make time, but it is the crucible for change. In the context of confidentiality and safety, trust can be shared, hurts can be healed, paths can be explored, and life, in all of its complexity, can be celebrated.

Are you worried that you will never feel better? You want more, but are unsure how to get there. You deserve better! Life is too short to live trapped in anxiety/depression, unhealthy relational patterns, overwhelming fear, and/or trauma wounds from the past. I help you to identify the root cause and be free from those burdens that bog you down to live the life you want, discover peace, find joy & live better. I am here to walk with you each step of the way as together we navigate the path forward. When you take that brave step to reach out, I will contact you back. EMDR trained for survivors of trauma.
