My name is Jessie Hall, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I received my bachelor’s degrees in psychology and education from Southern Methodist University and my master's degree in counseling from Dallas Theological Seminary. I have extensive experience working with adolescents, adults, and families at the outpatient and residential levels of care. I believe that everyone has a story. My goal is to build a meaningful relationship with you and create a safe space where we can work through the painful and uncomfortable parts of your story together.

Welcome! I’m a Louisiana native that now practices exclusively in both, Louisiana and Texas. This is a collaborative therapeutic process that allows processing symptoms of grief (inclusive of loss of self) and trauma, modifying negative cognitions and narratives, managing symptoms anxiety, mood disorders and depression, decreasing emotion dysregulation, dissociating, and fostering one's sense of self etc.

Listening, empowering, and being present with my clients is what I am passionate about. I have about 7 years of counseling and clinical experience. I received my Masters in Social Work in 2014 from Hunter College in NYC. My clinical experience includes working with children, adolescents, and individuals all ages including geriatrics. I will help guide you and assist you in coming up with strategies to help conquer your life goals and overcome challenges. Creating a safe space and being non-judgmental is extremely important to me when working with my clients.

You have some ideas of what you want & what your life could be like but your body struggles to let you have it. Your past whisper doubts to you so decision making becomes an endless narrative of what if’s, doom and if you’re doing the right thing. The fear of the unknown imprisons your voice and most of your true self never gets seen. You want the confidence to trust your own knowing & have a peaceful life but sometimes this even scares you. Life has mostly shown you that you can only rely on yourself & it can get lonely, especially in childhood but now you're ready for healthy relationships and a chance to thrive.

I specialize in treating trauma, attachment, and anxiety using somatic, body-brain techniques for transformative healing. As a brain-wise therapist, I'll help you understand the intricate flow between brain, body, mind, and relationships. My approach is grounded in neuroscience, blending mindfulness and relational therapy to help you process your experiences, move forward, and restore resilience. My goal is to take you from simply surviving to thriving with confidence, ease, and health, empowering you to overcome helplessness and access your innate wholeness. Because every journey is unique, I give individualized care and support.

Healing is a journey that is unique to each person’s individual lived experiences. Maybe you've experienced discrimination, trauma, or unhealthy relationship patterns that cause you to feel disconnected, unsure about yourself or life trajectory, or develop unhealthy coping mechanisms. Maybe you're feeling stuck or wondering if healing is even possible. In therapy I provide a safe open space that allows for growth, exploration, and healing tailored to your individual needs.

You matter and what you have been through matters. The pain is deep and the reality is often too difficult to face let alone overcome.

My clients come from diverse backgrounds but all have one thing in common: they are bound by past traumas that continue to control their present day. My primary theoretical approach is one of interpersonal and holistic psychology that draws from acceptance and commitment therapy, psychodynamic, existential, feminist, and multicultural counseling work. I use meditative practice and applied mindfulness as well as a holistic trauma model to allow my clients to find peace within themselves while also equipping them with the skills needed to continue their personal growth after therapy is complete.

As a therapist, I get excited about the opportunity for change in a person's life. My goal is to connect with the client and to help them achieve healing, gain hope, and thrive individually. There are many reasons to seek therapy, and I consider it an honor to support clients during this courageous journey. I work hard to provide a nurturing, non-judgmental space where it is safe to be vulnerable, and I help my clients feel empowered to make changes towards growth and healing. It can feel scary to open up, and I can support you by collaborating with you throughout the process.

I am a licensed psychologist who has worked with mental health disorders in settings such as residential substance abuse treatment centers, community mental health, intimate partner violence shelters, and private practice. My areas of interest include healthy relationships, intimate partner violence, sexual assault, depression, anxiety, grief, and trauma. I am currently conducting therapy with adolescents, adults, and couples.

I'm honored to work with children and adults who are struggling with anxiety, trauma, life transitions and grief. I combine play therapy with art, mindfulness, movement, EMDR, and sand tray therapy for children ages 4-10 to help them understand their thoughts and feelings, grow their emotional awareness, and learn to identify and express their needs. Creative healing isn't just for children. I also help adults who are struggling with relationships, anxiety and trauma.

You deserve healing. Depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, and/or everyday stressors, can create obstacles along the way. My goal is to help you process emotions, develop a variety of coping strategies, identify roadblocks, and empower you to recognize your inner worth and purpose. At the end of our journey together, you will walk away with increase self-awareness and insight, and an ability to handle challenging situations with confidence.

Your story doesn't end here. You are more than your experiences. I believe that everyone has the ability to heal, and it is my goal to help you find your way back to wellness. Let's start the next chapter together. My therapy approach is that of "Mind, Body, Soul" and believe that all three will influence someone's quality of life. Whether it be someone needing psychotherapy to address past traumatic events or someone who is holding their trauma in their body, everything revolves around alignment. I offer a variety of modalities that address the whole person, not just their mental needs.

I really don't have an ideal client. However, I prefer to work with people who are motivated to address their issues. I have experience in working with depression and anxiety. Issues of crisis intervention, post-traumatic stress, veterans concerns, and sexual abuse are all part of my skill set. Most people need support and compassion. The presenting problem may be related to other issues. Family of origin circumstances are frequently an issue. I work in conjunction with the client to develop a treatment plan. We devise goals and define what they hope to accomplish.

Have you been holding onto some painful secrets, that you have never shared with another soul? Are you struggling with unwanted and/or negative thoughts and don’t know how to change the narrative? Have you ever felt so low and hopeless that you contemplated if you should live or die? Are you struggling to maintain relationships due to not being able to find the right words? Do you self medicate with substances, so that you can forget about what is causing you pain? If you said yes to any of the questions above, you are now free to take a deep breath because there is hope... Peace is possible. You can live the life that you deserve.

Have you ever lost hope for the possibility of healing or genuine understanding from others? It’s human to want to feel seen for who we are, but often the risk or lived experience of harm and rejection can cause us to hide the most vulnerable (and connecting) parts of ourselves. Imagine for a moment what it would be like to feel authentically seen and embraced—to practice self-compassion and celebrate every part of yourself.

When we feel overwhelmed, we get out of alignment emotionally, mentally, spiritually, and physically. This affects our nervous system and can show up as stress, lack of energy, overthinking, addictive behaviors, anxiety, and depression, etc. Trauma can be anything that overwhelmed us. Unresolved trauma drains our system of energy. As a holistic therapist, we address body, mind, and spirit to discover and heal what holds us back. My hope is to provide a safe space for you to access your internal healing wisdom, so that you can be present for what is difficult or painful, make the changes you want, and find greater energy.
