Annie Severide
Licensed Professional Counselor Associate, MA, LPC-A
Hurst, TX 76054
I use a person-centered, faith-informed approach integrating CBT, ACT, CPT, IFS, and NVC to build resilience and insight.
I provide therapy for adolescents, teens, and young adults navigating anxiety, OCD, relational trauma, identity struggles, life transitions, and self-worth challenges. I am especially passionate about supporting athletes and students facing the emotional pressures of performance, competition, injury recovery, and expectations from others. Many clients feel overwhelmed by toxic relationships, people-pleasing, intrusive thoughts, perfectionism, or feeling stuck in unhealthy patterns. My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate space where clients feel supported, understood, and empowered to heal and grow.

Do you come from a family that just "didn't do emotions"? Have you gone to a therapist in the past only to have your fears come true, feel disregarded, or feel like therapy just isn't for you? I specialize in meeting people where they are and introducing positive mental health to those who have been skeptical to see a therapist in the past. Whether assisting a teenager in defining what they want their future to look like, processing trauma with a veteran/first responder, or guiding an individual to break the chains of addiction, I am confident in our ability to work collaboratively towards accomplishing your therapy goals!

Sessions with me are client-centered and I integrate various evidenced based modalities of therapy, such as CBT, ACT, DBT and Motivational Interviewing based on your needs and goals.
You are navigating the wild world of adulting, and let's be real, it's A LOT. Maybe you thought you had it all figured out in high school, but now you're staring down college, or a new job, or just trying to discover who you are, and it feels like everyone can see that you have no clue what you are doing. You're bombarded with classes, or trying to pay rent, maintain relationships, and still keep up with what life throws at you. Maybe you're feeling totally isolated, just going through the motions of what you imagine a “real grown up” should be. You're feeling directionless, but the pressure to have it all together is everywhere.

I want you to know that you’re not alone, and you don’t have to sort through it all on your own. The people I work with are often in seasons of transition. They may feel overwhelmed by anxiety, stuck in recurring patterns, or uncertain about who they’re becoming. Some are working through relationship challenges, grief, identity questions, or just trying to understand why life feels harder than it should.

Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) Therapists
How does acceptance and commitment therapy work?
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages a person to listen to their self-talk. A person’s inner dialog can be indicative of how they treat themselves. ACT also encourages self-compassion; this can lead to a better understanding of negative thought patterns and emotional states. This understanding can then lead the individual to needed behavior change.

What are the goals of acceptance and commitment therapy?
The goal of acceptance and commitment is to expand a person’s psychological flexibility, a trait that encourages an individual to live in the present moment and to accept all their thoughts, feelings, and emotions, even ones that are difficult such as sadness and anxiety. In ACT, this acceptance is congruent with the individual’s values and beliefs.

Does acceptance and commitment therapy work for depression?
Acceptance and commitment therapy is effective for depression because it allows the individual to view their discomfort and suffering differently. Depressive feelings about relationship heartaches, for example, are a part of life. A despondent person learns to let go of their struggles and instead view their painful thoughts and feelings with compassion. This will lead the individual toward positive change.

How long are people typically in acceptance and commitment therapy?
A typical acceptance and commitment therapy session is 50 minutes long with one session per week. Treatment for common problems such as anxiety, depression, or relationship difficulties can last between eight weeks to four months. However, more severe cases may require more than one session a week and/or a longer time frame for treatment.
