Therapists in Fair Oaks, TX

ACCELERATED RESOLUTION THERAPY Therapist… If you've decided to seek help and you're entrusting a therapist with your most personal concerns, it is vitally important that the fit be right. Hope and relief come sooner when you find a therapist you feel comfortable with and has the experience you need. I have been in the ministry of helping individuals, families and couples most of my adult life. I balance the concerns you have while also ministering. I strive to meet people where they are, help them understand their strengths, and aid in the empowerment of taking charge of and developing their lives.

Asking for help is a sign of strength. People mistake the feeling of vulnerability for weakness, allowing this feeling to surface means we are facing something painful. This takes courage. Learning to experience feelings without judging them is a foundational part of the healing process. Acceptance is a sign of bravery and leads to developing what is called emotional intelligence. When you engage in the development of your emotional intelligence you are increasing self-awareness and personal freedom by creating choice where there was none before.

I specialize in working with codependent women and men. Codependency is not always related to addiction, it is often referred to as a self-love deficit disorder because most codependent clients have a difficult time identifying and focusing on their own needs. They often spend a lifetime being people-pleasers, but eventually feel anger and resentment for neglecting themselves and not receiving the appreciation/love they desire from others. Breaking free from codependency requires individuals to step away from their denial, to honor themselves, and to set boundaries. Then they can love and nurture others in a healthy manner.

Do you struggle with anxiety, depression, mood, grief, a challenging relationship, loss of a sense of self , or trauma that affects your day-to-day life? Are you unable to do the things to function and have healthy relationships? Do you feel overwhelmed or lost by just getting through the day, or struggle to get launched into your next phase of life? Do you hope that your relationships could be better? Now more than ever, all people are feeling anxiousness and uncertain about their relationships, their wellbeing, and finding themselves after trauma. You want to get unstuck and take the next step to go from existing to fully living.

I completed the following degrees, licenses, & certifications to provide comprehensive care for clients: Registered Nurse, Functional Medicine Practitioner, Board-Certified Faith-Based Therapist, Psychology Graduate, Licensed Minister, & Certified Life/Wellness Coach. I am fundamentally motivated to lead others to overcome challenges & odds as I serve them by offering advice, education, treatment & emotional support helping to make an impact that produces positive substantial changes in their lives. In addition, I utilize labs and licensed pharmaceutical-grade nutraceuticals to help my clients achieve better health.

Do you struggle with feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and uncertain about life? Feeling challenges with trauma, relationships, depression, anxiety or grief? Struggling to maintain a healthy work-life balance? Does your sleep suffer or are you fearful of making the wrong move? You're not alone. Too often, we prioritize our daily duties and neglect our own wellbeing. But taking time for oneself is essential for health and wellbeing

At Evolución, we believe that our journeys in life can leave us all feeling challenged and alone and from time to time it can feel unmanageable. Our hopes at Evolución are to provide support and encouragement for individuals, couples, and families along the path. Our goal at Evolución is your space to discover and EVOLVE without judgment. It is your space in this world to be inspired, supported, and motivated to help you heal, restore and recharge in whatever way you desire. I work with clients as they work their way through social, emotional, identity, and relationship issues that they are faced with in their life journey.

When working with clients I use an integrative approach that combines cognitive behavioral, mindfulness, and humanistic forms of therapy. I believe the foundation of growth and healing starts with an empathetic and present therapeutic rapport. I strive to meet my clients where they are and at the same time help facilitate further exploration of self.

My natural approach to people is very humanistic. A central value of mine is being compassionate, non-judgmental and accepting towards others. I value genuineness, warmth and kindness when connecting with my clients. I believe in the critical role of the relationship between myself and the client, because in my opinion this is the primary mechanism of change. Only in the presence of a caring, safe and trustworthy relationship can we work together towards self-exploration, insight and change.

Are you struggling with recent personal or societal events, past or present traumas or losses, life transitions, or general life stressors? Do you need help navigating how to deal with these things in a productive, meaningful, or healthy way? Then you have come to the right place and I am happy you are here. We can expect to experience at least one or all of the above issues at some point in our lives, but we are not expected to endure them alone. I enjoy helping people who are struggling with grief, anxiety, boundaries, life transitions, & illness to name a few; while providing a warm, safe space for you to be authentic and heard.

Currently Accepting New Clients. I work with people from a variety of different backgrounds and across a broad range of human experiences. I enjoy helping clients find meaning, strength, and growth after surviving difficult, painful, and traumatic experiences. I enjoy working with adults and emerging adults. I feel grateful that I get to play a part in the lives of the clients I work with and share in their experiences.

I am a licensed psychologist and a clinical neuropsychologist. I provide evidence based effective treatment for psychological problems, as well as neuropsychological assessment. I take a humanistic and compassionate approach and work with my clients as partners in a journey. My clients' wellbeing, dignity and progress towards the goals we set are my top priorities. Together with my clients I offer a tailored clinical approach to help you achieve your treatment and life goals. I also draw from both neuroscience as well as from philosophy to help clients get better and experience the profound sense that... its ok to be you!

Whether one seeks relief from anxiety, trauma, relational impasses, or life disillusionment, therapy can help. It is unfortunate that insufficiently engaged approaches to therapy, prohibitive rates, and the unconscionable reluctance of most clinicians to accept insurance fail so many clients, who in good faith seek to discover a healing of heart and mind. As a psychodynamic therapist, I view my role as an empathic change agent employed to help bring about a fuller knowledge of self and a more liberated experience of life and relationship. I also supervise highly promising interns from NWU available for as low as $15-30 per session.

Finding the right therapist can be difficult, maybe you have asked yourself questions like “will they “get” me?”, “do they know what it’s like to feel torn in multiple directions?” Or maybe, if you are anything like me, you have asked yourself “is there something wrong with me?”, “where are the therapists that look, even vaguely, like me?” As a half-Asian, bicultural woman of color, I’m passionate about supporting others who live at the intersection of multiple identities.

My goal is not to treat dysfunction or illness, but rather to promote your emotional and psychological health; help you develop effective communication skills; and encourage you to create a lifestyle that reinforces self-exploration and personal growth. I help you strengthen skills you already possess and develop new ones, so that you can take charge of your life and feel better about yourself. Whether your main concern is your career, relationships, personal growth or spiritual growth, I can help you take the steps that are necessary to start truly enjoying your life. Some evening and weekend appointments are available.

I am currently accepting new clients and I am able to provide telehealth and in person counseling. I am dually licensed as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor (LCDC). I have recently gained EMDR therapy training and I invite you to take your next step towards healing.

My counseling style is collaborative and empowering, with a focus on cultivating a therapeutic environment that invites authenticity, embodiment, trust, insight, creativity, and humor. The core of my work is to help clients tap into their innate ability to grow and heal in order to connect to a life more deeply grounded in meaning and joy. Within a safe, empathetic, and nonjudgmental space, I invite you to examine inner beliefs and how they shape your behaviors, relationships, and emotional wellbeing. I believe that, with compassion and curiosity, sitting in the present with what is can be truly transformational.

Hello! My name is Melissa & I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Associate, Supervised by Diana Garza-Louis, LPC-S, LMFT-S. In my practice I see children & adolescents, and I believe the most important thing is to establish a trusting relationship with clients. I believe that change can’t happen unless safety & security are established first. My goal for each session is to bring authenticity to the playroom & create a safe space for each child to learn how to trust their own inner wisdom, strength, & gain confidence. Through compassion, humor, and encouragement, I create a supportive environment for a therapeutic healing process.
