Counseling is a self-exploratory journey toward inner peace. It is an opportunity to grow emotionally. Emotional growth and maturity is a life work. What is emotional maturity? It includes the ability to be honest, open, genuine, transparent, and loving. It means you don't change you, to be a version of you, that you think someone else wants you to be. You display the ability to be kind to others, but you will set boundaries so you are not compromised. You live in your heart and experience and not in your small mind. We all face challenging times and need an enlightened witness to guide us through. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Texas. I have a Master’s degree in Counseling. I incorporate many therapeutic modalities, these include: • Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) • Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) • My approach is from an Existential and Transpersonal perspective I am compassionate, empathic, and intuitive. Those are tools I will use to connect with you. I will guide you through this unique but powerful therapeutic process that is BetterHelp. Thank you for taking this opportunity for your emotional growth. I’m glad that you are here.

Hello! I'm Kim Ferren and I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 20 years experience, licensed in the state of Texas. I have a Master's in Counseling and have extensive experience working with individuals, couples, and families. I've worked in the clinical setting, in private practice, and in the in-patient hospital setting. My therapeutic approach can best be described as client-focused, with an emphasis on cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, and family systems. It's important to me to provide a calm and safe environment where you know you will be listened to and not judged. The client/therapist relationship is a key component in successful therapy, so I strive to establish a good rapport, then we will work as a team to establish goals and move forward. Life presents many challenges, most of which we can confidently deal with; but there are times when we get stuck, or we've been deeply wounded, and we just don't know what to do. Asking for help is a great first step in finding your way through the tough moments.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), I specialize in providing couples counseling to help partners navigate relationship challenges, improve communication, and strengthen their emotional connection. With a compassionate, non-judgmental approach, I work alongside couples to explore the underlying dynamics that contribute to conflict, stress, and dissatisfaction in their relationship. My goal is to guide couples in building healthier communication patterns, resolving misunderstandings, and addressing unresolved issues that may be hindering their connection.

Every challenge presents an opportunity for growth, and together, we can work to turn difficult times into a foundation for deeper understanding, respect, and intimacy. I utilize evidence-based techniques such as Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution Focused to support couples in improving their relationship dynamics. By fostering mutual respect, understanding, and empathy, I help couples cultivate deeper trust and intimacy. Whether you're navigating conflict, adjusting to life changes, or working on rebuilding your relationship, I’m here to provide the support and guidance you need to foster a healthier, more fulfilling partnership. In addition to working with couples, I also offer individual counseling for those looking to explore personal growth, manage stress, or address underlying issues that impact their relationships.
