Therapists in Texas

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I hold a Baccalaureate degree (BA) in Humanities and a Master’s degree (MS) in Counseling. My formal education and professional experience have prepared me to counsel individuals, couples, families and groups My primary theoretical approach is cognitive behavior therapy. This is a short-term, goal-oriented psychotherapy treatment that takes a hands-on, practical approach to problem-solving. My goal is to change patterns of thinking or behavior that are behind client’s difficulties, and so change the way they feel. I am committed to helping all individuals. I understand asking for help can be challenging and uncomfortable for some. My goal is to create a space where the client can be open, vulnerable, and communicate their feelings without judgment. I work with clients from all backgrounds and cultural settings. I personally invite you to experience finding hope within yourself to navigate through life. I invite clients to my office. It’s warm and welcoming. Our first session is a Consultation. During this session we will discuss why you have chosen to seek counseling as a solution to your needs. The next few sessions will involve an evaluation of your needs. I will be able to offer you some first impressions of what our work will include and a treatment plan to follow, if you decide to continue with therapy. Therapy involves a large commitment of time and resources such as money and mental and emotional energy, so it is important to select the right therapist to work with you and your family.

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.

In the era of Covid 19, social unrest, and financial strain people are more stressed than they have been in recent history. Life can change us for the better, or for the worse. We can become stuck. While we have labels for these things, the bottom-line is we get stuck and we can become unstuck. I am s seasoned helper who has been in the mental health field for over 30 years. I have worked with all age groups and diagnoses. I have worked in hospitals, clinics and in the community. I have a strong background in addiction, trauma and life transitions. I have made a life of breaking out of the boxes and labels, professionally and personally. I am well versed in clinical and professional approaches; but my strengths are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing/Change Theory, Solution-Focused Therapy and EMDR. But, I believe there are many ways to getting unstuck found in ones own personal curiosity, creativity, and experiences. I am interested in those I serve being able to describe their experiences in the own words, through their own expression, and though their own lived experience. I believe a person's history is social, cultural, spiritual, and emotional. I believe healing comes from a personal journey and making sense of things. Let's work together as collaborators!

I am licensed in Texas and Arizona with over 40 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with coping with addictions, LGBTQ-related issues, health care issues, disability, aging, self esteem, and confidence, & career difficulties. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

As a professional counselor, I approach therapy with a trauma-informed perspective, guided by the belief that every individual possesses the innate capacity to heal themselves. I view therapy as a collaborative process, honoring your unique history, values, and aspirations for the future. Together, we will identify your goals and work towards creating lasting change. Finding an anchoring point, searching for meaning, or determining the next steps in your life can seem daunting. However, therapy can provide a space where one can venture into the unknown, fostering understanding and paving the way for self directed change. Together, we will explore your experiences both in the present moment and from the past as they come up in session. Through the power of language and mindful awareness, we will seek meaning, make sense of behaviors and emotions, and create new possibilities for growth and healing. It would be an honor to join you on this path towards self-discovery, healing, and growth. You are not alone; I am here to offer my support and guidance in a safe and healing space. Thank you for considering me as your counselor. I look forward to embarking on this journey with you.

Hello, My name is Melody LeVane. I have been a licensed therapist in Texas for over 15 years. I graduated from the University of Mary Hardin Baylor with an MA in Counseling Psychology. I have worked with adults, couples, and adolescents, as well as traditional and non-traditional families. At this time, I work mostly with adults. When I’m not working, I enjoy cooking, arts and crafts, and spending time with my family, friends, and our four rescue pups, Monkey, Panda, Roxy, and Zoey. My approach is trauma-informed, strength-based, collaborative, and holistic, blending mind and body. While I use elements from various therapeutic modalities, my primary focus is on providing Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. However, I also use elements from Somatic Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Positive Psychology, the Gottman Method, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. I provide a safe, accepting space where clients can explore their perspectives and experiment with shifting identifying habits that may be holding them back. My goal is to guide clients on a journey of self-discovery, offering realistic hope and the tools they need to move forward with grace and grit. My hope is that clients leave sessions feeling empowered, seen, and equipped to face the challenges ahead. Life is like a roller coaster. Sometimes, the ups and downs happen so fast that it's easy to get caught up in the ride and lose track of where we want to go. Sometimes, there doesn't seem to be enough time to figure out how to slow down, and at other times, all you can do is hang on for dear life. Every person's roller coaster is as unique as they are. If you are not satisfied with the way your life is going, therapy can help.
