Are you feeling stuck and not sure where to go next? Do you feel like you are not being heard? Life brings many ups and downs, challenges, and transitions. These experiences can be confusing, from adolescence to adulthood, rebuilding your life after divorce, retirement, or significant loss. We can look at how patterns of thinking influence feelings and behaviors and work to learn new behaviors and skills to approach future life experiences more effectively. I seek to build a therapeutic relationship of trust and safety to provide you with the support needed to grow in your journey.

My role is to provide a safe, confidential, and enabling environment for my clients to grow from life issues to a place of strength and knowledge. I partner with my clients to identify their strengths and remove obstacles to living a healthy drug-free life and maximizing their potentials

In my perspective, therapy is an investment in your personal growth and a dedication to your overall well-being. I take a cognitive behavioral approach to therapy and help individuals explore and identify strengths and personal successes. I believe that understanding our past and our current life patterns helps to foster internal growth.

I understand it may be difficult to open up and trust someone with your most precious inner thoughts and feelings. You may have experienced hurt and trauma in your past and maybe currently in your present. If you're looking to start your journey and prioritize your mental health, I would love to support you on your journey to achieving your goals.

I am a Spanish speaker and multicultural Licensed Professional Counselor. I have solid experience working with adults who have difficulty coping with life transitions, depression, anxiety, domestic violence, sexual assault, trauma, parenting, couples therapy, career performance, personal growth, and other behavioral and relational matters.

Change can be difficult but it can also create an opening for a more fulfilling life. I would welcome the opportunity to join you in this journey of self-discovery, insight, and new possibilities. My experience as a counselor and pastor have provided me with a broad background with which to walk this path with you in a warm, accepting and non-judgmental environment.

Imagine taking a step towards making your mental health stability as equally important as you do your physical health. Society has indirectly taught us "to be strong", "pray about it", or "it's okay not to be okay". But, what if I was here to tell you that your mental needs have a direct effect to your overall physical health. There's this misconception about seeking therapeutic services and my primary goal is to bridge the gap of mental health stigmas.

My name is Frances Jewell Jordan. I am a Licensed Master Social Worker in the state of Texas. I am a United States Army Veteran and Johnson C. Smith two- time Alumna from the School of Social Work. I assist clients with various mental and behavioral health concerns and helping them reach their goals as well as coping with experiences by encouraging them to make changes to improve their health and thinking, when they are ready.

I work with depression and anxiety related issues, particularly men dealing with stresses and pressures of life related to relationships and work. Men can find themselves feeling trapped, with family and coworkers depending on them. Men usually try harder, doing what they have already tried (such as more work), but that has worsened the problem. I help men address these problems in a safe, private venue that seeks new solutions to problems and resolution of unhappiness. My goal is to restore a sense of vitality and joy in living life with family and friends.

Growing up in a large, blended family, I learned firsthand how to deal with relationships of all kinds. I counseled veterans and civilians suffering from PTSD and childhood trauma. This led me to EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) which can yield remarkable results in processing and healing trauma responses. In addition to EMDR I also use Psychodynamic Therapy, CBT and DBT. There is a solution to end the cycle of suffering. We can be free of emotional pain caused by trauma and childhood experiences to live our best lives now.

While it is common to feel "unraveled" when daily stressors or various traumas occur, everyone has the ability to find meaningful solutions. I believe that everyone is unique, so the solution will be different for each person. My desire is to assist clients (ages 10-90), including adolescents, adults and couples, find a balance between a healthy need for relationship and possible psychological, social or spiritual factors within a framework of personal responsibility. After teaching English and Art for 23 years, I experienced the power of expressive arts to unlock inner voices that help students/clients achieve hope and confidence.

Sometimes life takes a turn that we did not expect and the way we used to cope and survive no longer works for us. I am excited to join you on this path towards self-exploration while holding a safe place for you to discover, grow, and heal. I believe the therapeutic relationship is a critical component to making counseling work. I value the importance of hearing your unique story and the struggles you are experiencing. I work with clients 18 and older with specific various presenting concerns including: family of origin & attachment issues, adjustment to life changes, communication struggles, and boundary setting in relationships.
