Therapists in Winnsboro, TX

As a graduate of UTSW and Lead Counselor at a Neuro Transitional Center in Dallas, I specialize in adjustment to disability and recovery from Traumatic Brain Injury, Post-Concussive Disorder, Acquired Brain Injury, Stroke and Spinal Cord Injury. Not only adjustment for the survivor but for their families and caregivers. I am passionate about helping individuals work toward having as much control over their lives as possible while providing the tools to do so. I will help them accomplish this through the use of methods that work best for them since therapy is not a “one-size-fits-all” process.

If you are having trouble dealing with relationship issues, or need a little help defining your direction in life, or balancing the seemingly overwhelming and endless daily stressors that lead to depression and anxiety, then I am the right person for you.

My goal is to enable clients to cope with life changes, learning differences, difficulties in thinking (cognitive deficits) and emotional instability in a supportive environment by learning self-management (mindfulness) and coping skills.

Integra Psychological Services, PLLC is owned by clinical neuropsychologist Dr. Levi Armstrong. We provide compassionate psychological and neuropsychological testing / evaluation services for children, adolescents, and adults. We also provide individual, couples, and marriage/family therapy.

I know that you or a family member having TBI, spinal cord injury, other bodily injuries, and or chronic illness may be experiencing drastic life changes which may have caused you to feel depression, anxiety, isolation etc. I offer individual & group therapy/support groups to provide coping skills & emotional support. Committed relationships can be a very exciting time but can also be a very nerve wrecking time because its one of the biggest decisions of your life if you decide to marry this person. I want to be an objective therapist that can help guide you through this process with Christian pre enagagement counseling.

My greatest strength is empathy, the ability to put myself in the shoes of my client to understand what they are feeling. Every brain is as unique as DNA, which means problems can present differently in people and can be triggered by different issues. I work with all ages, from children with ADHD to senior citizens with cognitive decline. Sometimes the client needs to build a toolbox, and other times, we can teach the brain new ways of processing information. It all depends on what issues you are dealing with in order to determine what solutions are available. I will guide you through what options are available for you to decide.

My ideal client is someone looking for greater self-exploration and seeking inner harmony. They want to be mentally and physically balanced while striving to be their best self. They want growth and maturation and to align with their greater purpose. They're looking for guidance by getting back connected with their inner source through the process of therapy and exploring their experiences. My ideal client is looking to be heard, understood, and attended to assuage emotional disturbances, life difficulties, and cognitive dissonances. I work with teens, young adults, adults, couples, and athletes.

Welcome! I specialize in providing a safe and confidential space where clients can process and talk about issues that they are facing.

My ultimate goal is to foster resilience and empower my clients to overcome obstacles to improve their overall well-being. I take pleasure in collaborating with individuals from diverse backgrounds and professions, particularly witnessing the remarkable personal growth that therapy can facilitate.

Although I use the traditional methods of counseling, I believe in the Holistic Brain and treating many conditions with EMDR, Hypnosis, Neuro-feedback, Nutrition, Exercise and re-training the brain to function optimally. Get on a positive path for growth and well being. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life.

I remain passionate about making a difference in the lives of others and believe that genuine caring is an essential element to an effective counseling relationship. Over the years I have worked with clients with significant trauma and loss. I consider it a privilege to stand with another individual as he or she resolves great pain. I am currently seeing clients exclusively via telemedicine (secure video platform). I am able to see clients in Texas, Kansas, Alabama, and California.

I work with individuals, children, teens,couples, and families. Your treatment would be specific to your needs and goals. My approach to counseling is primarily cognitive behavioral therapy, holistic, and trauma focused. I would like to offer you an opportunity for treatments that change problematic thought and behavior patterns, while building on your particular strengths. I would be honored to walk with you through this time in your life.

Sometimes, our mind can stop us from taking necessary steps in our day to day lives or in making big decisions. You might find yourselves feeling really stuck or you might notice difficulty sleeping or excess tension in your body. You might find that your thoughts go back to the same worry over and over again while you’re trying to enjoy time with friends, family, or even watching TV. You’re not alone in this feeling; I am here to help. Asking for help can be challenging, and there may be a myriad of reasons that keep us from reaching out. Some of us fear stigma, while others believe that needing support is a sign of weakness.

As you take this step towards achieving wellness, we are honored to walk with you on your personal journey while providing a safe place, healing, hope, restoration, and quality of care.

I am qualified and experienced to help adults cope with or resolve a wide range of challenges, including depression or anxiety, relationship issues, making decisions or transitions, recovering from injury or illness, working through current or past trauma, as well as diagnosing and treating various psychiatric and cognitive disorders.

I love helping individuals grow to their fullest potential, as they utilize tools that reside within. My experience includes working in Private Practice settings and Veteran Mental Health/Rehabilitation facility. Additional experience has been gained by working in adolescent residential treatment, and intensive outpatient.

My clients would describe me as compassionate, creative, and understanding. For therapy to work, it’s important the client truly feels heard trusts the process. I believe in empowering my clients through evidenced based approaches like Art Therapy, Attachment Theory, Somatic Experiencing, Person-Centered Therapy. My clients and I form genuine relationships and respect for each other, which yields really great results. I take a holistic, trauma informed approach in my work. I enjoy using the creative process alongside clients as they create fulfilling lives. I strongly believe that clients have the answers to their own healing.

Do you want a fresh perspective on how your brain works and work with it rather than against it? Are you in a marginalized community that you feel is not heard through traditional therapy? I may be the right therapist for you! I am a LPC-A under the supervision of Melinda Porter and I am passionate about treating the LGBTQIA+ community. I believe in treating the person and their needs rather than pathologizing the client's state and approaching every client individually. Whether you are struggling with a large change in your life or want to improve your overall mental health, we can work on it together!

Nothing in life is one size fits all; therapy is no exception. My first priority is to establish a trusting relationship with you, then together create goals tailored to your individual needs. As humans, we tend to shy away from uncomfortable, unwanted, or overwhelming feelings/thoughts. We all develop habits to cope; sometimes those habits may no longer be helpful. In a non-judgmental and safe environment, we will work together, unlock your potential and create the change you desire. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor and fully trained in EMDR in Texas.
