Therapists in Texas

Hello. My name is Taylor, and I am an LPC in Texas. I was able to obtain a undergraduate degree in psychology from TCU, and then my masters in psychology at Western Kentucky University. I have experience of 3+ years working at an inpatient hospital setting where I floated around between units working with Children, Adolescents, Adults, Geriatrics, and Persons in the Military. Ever since then I have been working exclusively with adolescents and children teaching them CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) skills for 5 years. Around the start of the pandemic (June 2020) I started seeing Adults through tele-med, and have been doing one-on-one sessions since then with adults struggling with anxiety towards COVID-19, relationship stress from quarantine, and restructuring their anxious thoughts to feel more in control. I do almost exclusively CBT skills, and my strengths are in educating what mental illness is, how is it expressed, and the difference ways CBT can help. I also am good a teaching relaxation skills, and identifying the thoughts that lead to more extreme, unhealthy emotions. My goal is to help you understand yourself, and your mind, and with that understanding help you be able to help yourself. Non-therapy: I have a cat that turns 7 and a dog that turns 2 this summer. I enjoy going on walks, bird watching, reading, and playing FIFA when I'm not working. Unfortunately, I root for the Cowboys. I look forwarded to working with you, Taylor

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor licensed in Texas with experience working children, teens and adults. I have experience working with survivors of abuse, youth in juvenile facilities and individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. With this experience, I have worked with individuals with a wide range of issues such as trauma, anxiety, depression, family conflict, family violence and stress. My counseling style is warm, empathetic, and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion during their counseling journey. With my experience, I have found that it’s best to meet people where they’re at and what they’re comfortable with. My hope as a therapist is to help you get where you want to be, feel what you want to feel and find the spark that was missing. I will adapt my approach to meet your unique needs in hopes of achieving the outcome you desire. My approach combines strength-based, solution-focused and client centered therapy. We will work together to create a treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I look forward to working with you!

Hi! My name is Liliana Palacios, and I want to tell you that I've spent the last 18 years helping people from all walks of life through their troubles and successes, being their cheerleader and advisor through thick and thin alike. I am originally from Mexico City and lived there until I was 24. There, I went to college and earned a BS in Organizational Psychology. Moving to the United States as a young mother, I decided to focus my energy and efforts on being a mother to my two girls, but that didn't stop me from pursuing and earning my MA in Professional Counseling. While being a stay-at-home mom, I volunteered for several years at the local Mental Health Mental Retardation agency and as a crisis line phone volunteer with Contact Crisis Line. After finishing my education and becoming independently licensed, I started working with parents and children who had suffered abuse and women victims of domestic violence. Some of the issues that I have expertise in are relationship violence, childhood sexual abuse, sexual abuse, depression, anxiety, drug and alcohol abuse, marital problems, parenting coaching and training, delinquency in youth, and problems of childhood and adolescence. I have also facilitated domestic violence support groups for Hispanic victims and parenting classes in Spanish for parents of children and adolescents. Over the past 14 years, I have focused my work on advocating, assisting, and guiding parents of children on the autism spectrum in looking for services and support for themselves or their children. Previously, I worked closely with caregivers of elderly or ill loved ones during all the stages of caregiving and end-of-life concerns. I am a nationally certified counselor and clinical trauma professional, and I have trained extensively in grief counseling and therapeutics. Now, I believe that no matter how many fancy titles and certificates one might have, the success of a therapeutic relationship depends a lot on finding the right person for your current situation. I like to be warm, supportive, friendly, and open. Still, I will not sugarcoat or hesitate to tell my clients when I feel they are doing something that can bring them trouble or hurt them more than help. Therapy is a process of self-discovery, finding our inner strengths, and learning how to be happy, fulfilled, whole, and fully present for ourselves and our loved ones. I hope we have a chance to get to work together to get you to where you want and deserve to be! In good health, Liliana "It's not the load that breaks you down. It's how you carry it". Lena Thorne

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 14 years of experience in the mental health field. In my private practice, I help my clients find their spark and passion back into their lives by helping them to develop tools that will lead to greater self-awareness, awareness of others, and mindfulness practices. After overcoming my own struggle with anxiety through yoga and mindfulness practices, I decided to pursue further training as a yoga teacher and incorporate holistic healing practices in therapy. Now, I teach clients how to practice yoga, breathing exercises, and mindfulness during our sessions together so they can live the life they were meant to without holding themselves back. My ultimate goal is to assist people in finding their life purpose and living it fully!

I am here to help! When I counsel, my style is energetic, compassionate, and supportive.
