UnitedHealthcare UHC | UBH Therapists in Georgetown, TX

Accepting new patients and most insurances! I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 25 years of experience helping individuals, couples, and families with adjustment, marriage and family, and mental health issues. I enjoy helping couples make adjustments to marriage, stages of parenting, empty nest, retirement, chronic illnesses, and hospice care. As a Cognitive-Behavioral therapist, I teach patients a variety of coping skills where they learn how to change their thoughts and behaviors in order to change their mood (i.e. depressed, anxious, frustrated, or angry).

We could all use a little help finding clarity, focus, resolve from time to time. My desire is to work alongside you to do just that. I love to help people find joy and pleasure in life; to find freedom from the life circumstances, thought-patterns, and traumatic events that can plague us and keep us stuck.

Life can be beautiful and wonderful! It can also be overwhelming and painful at times. Feeling understood, cared about & listened to are profound human needs that are often neglected. Starting therapy can be intimidating; however, having a supportive, safe & comfortable outlet can be helpful in working toward healing, growing and thriving. I am here to listen and help you process what is weighing on you with EMDR & other evidence-based approaches. I will encourage your strengths, offer information (knowledge is power) to help you grow, collaborate with you to form your goals and help you with practical steps to achieve those goals.

Do you feel stressed, overwhelmed, or stuck? Sometimes we get trapped in the same patterns that give the same results and we become unmotivated. Having someone walk alongside us through these difficult times can be invaluable. My passion is to do just that. I specialize in helping people find clarity, balance, and solutions, while embracing individualism and even laughter/humor to promote healing. I help work through struggles such as life transitions, relational challenges, self-worth, trauma and PTSD, anxiety and depression. I aim for counseling to be a soft place to land no matter your background or current situation.

Having trouble adjusting to all the changes in the world today? Feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or just struggling with transitions that everyday life sometimes presents? My passion is helping people process through everyday but also some of the most difficult situations life can throw at them. I believe each person has the strength within them to work through these things. Sometimes it just takes finding the right tools and knowledge to access that strength. I work with adults and youth to move smoothly through life's changes, to offer the support and tools to help each individual meet the goals they want to achieve.

Navigating through life during changes and challenges can be overwhelming. You may feel stress, anxiety, depression, or anger. You may not know how to balance the responsibilities of relationships. If you are struggling, I will join with you wherever you are on your life journey to help you sort through these issues. We will explore what a richer, fuller, more meaningful life means to you. We will decide what you need to let go of and what you need to embrace. It takes courage to begin therapy and I am always honored when someone shares their story with me.

When you reach out for guidance and support, you need a safe environment where you are free to speak, feel, and process what matters most. Essentially, you deserve to be heard. I take my role in this process very seriously, and I love what I do! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 15 years of professional work experience.

I work with adults, adolescents, and children in the private setting and have worked with children and adolescents in the school setting.

Are you experiencing anxiety, grief, and/or depression? Do you need help and encouragement to explore, decide and put into place life choices that fit you? Are you ready to take steps toward feeling peaceful, happier and healthier?

The highly sensitive person (HSP) faces unique problems. Even if (like many) you have a sense you were born to help others, their emotions wear you out, depleting your energy. Most of your emotional life may be coping with others' unresolved emotions you've been carrying around, which do little but drain you. Seeking to rid yourself of those emotions, you have developed any of a range of emotional or psychological problems, including anxiety, depression, a personality disorder, or compulsive emotional numbing behavior (like perfectionism, people pleasing, overeating, substance use, or compulsive sexual behavior).

Hi, my name is Cara. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Texas, certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, with more than 20 years experience providing individual and couples therapy. I received a bachelors degree in psychology and a masters degree in counseling and educational psychology from Texas A & M University-Corpus Christi, 1997.

I am able to see clients, all over the State of Texas, through a HIPAA compliant confidential video link, a very convenient way to get therapy.

Mask usage: I will NOT be wearing a mask and ask that you do not either. Your whole face is essential for effective communication. I do have a clear face shield that is sanitized after every use, if you require a mask. Telehealth is always an option. Whether you are experiencing marital issues, emotional, social, or psychic issues, or having trouble getting your own brain to function properly, you are feeling pain and distress. If you are looking to save your marriage, in spite of infidelity, I am here to tell you there is hope.

While each client has unique needs, my approach is Person-centered and Humanistic. I typically use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing techniques; however, I have an eclectic approach overall. I sometimes draw interventions from Brief Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I also believe it is important to be multifaceted since therapy is not one-size-fits-all, so therapy will be an assimilation of different techniques that are catered to client needs.
