I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 20+ years of experience in mental health and education. I have worked with clients from many walks of life and with a wide variety of issues such as depression, anger management, autism, sexual identity, relationship issues, and parenting issues just to name a few. I would say my "style" is to the point. Building a relationship is of the upmost importance but I believe it is also important to identify what the issues are. When it comes to working on those issues I like to be straight forward about them. I draw from several theoretical approaches (cognitive, behavioral, humanistic and psychoanalytic) but also consider myself, overall, an integrative therapist. My core values, when it comes to counseling, begin with confidentiality. I believe everyone should have access to counseling and that it should be no concern of others considering one’s therapy (within the limits of confidentiality). I believe that at some point in time, in any of our lives, counseling may help. I also believe that people should be able to be who they are and pursue their dreams without judgment or persecution from others. I hope to offer my services to someone that can benefit from our interactions. I look forward to meeting you.

Hello! My name is Alicia and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who has been in the helping profession for over 17 years. I received my Master of Arts in Counseling from West Texas A&M University in 2007. I also acquired my license in Chemical Dependency in 2008 and have specialized in several areas that includes anxiety, depression, self-worth, behavioral problems, relationship conflict, communication, trauma, addiction, and other underlying issues that get in the way of living a fully satisfying life. From a young age, I have had a unique way of connecting with people that allowed them to feel comfortable, at ease, accepted and not judged. Intuitive thinking has always been one of my core strengths. I’m able to hear what a person is really saying even if he or she lacks the words to articulate their hopes or fears. I strongly believe that each person has a unique collection of strengths and resources within themselves. My goal as a therapist is not to solve someone’s problems or give a quick fix but to build a connection and a relationship built on trust, where vulnerability can occur and the learning process can begin. Being understood, being heard and validation of our feelings and emotions is something that we all strive for. The methods I may use with you include psychodynamic (to understand the unconscious forces that underlie your thoughts and behaviors which come from early childhood), mindfulness (awareness of paying attention, on purpose and in the present moment, without judgment), dialectical behavioral therapy (living in the moment, while accepting the contradiction between self-acceptance and change), and cognitive behavioral therapy (which counteracts the negative thinking of depression, identifies the problem and brainstorm solutions, etc.). I have also been trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and TF-CBT (Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) to assist client in working through trauma and relieving symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress. Know that I bring unique understanding of certain issues, coupled with excellent training and experience, to provide a non-shaming, non-judgmental, very affirming and safe place for clients to express themselves, gain a better understanding of the patterns in their lives, and work towards their goals. I look forward to meeting you and working with you!

My name is Amberlyn Keller, M.A., M. Edu., LPC. My education background includes: I have a bachelor’s of science degree in psychology from York College in Nebraska, a master’s of arts degree in Applied Research Psychology from The University of Texas of the Permian Basin in Odessa, Texas, a second master’s of art degree in School Counseling from University of St. Thomas in Houston, Texas and I completed my License Professional Counselor (LPC) classes through Lamar University through online education. I have 13 years teaching/coaching experience at all levels of education including special education as well as teaching experience at the college level teaching psychology courses online for five years for Midland College from 2005-2010 as a part-time adjunct teacher. As a former coach, I know how important mindfulness and mental skills can play a role in the success of an athlete. I have been counseling since 2015 when I started to complete practicum and internship hours for certification in school counseling followed by hours needed for LPC, respectively. I am fully licensed in the state of Texas as a LPC and have experience working in private practice as well as in a behavioral psychiatric hospital. I like to focus on client centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and have a realist approach to counseling. I also believe working through grief and trauma is important in moving forward in life. Mindfulness and yoga practices along with the use of essential oils can help with this. I believe each meeting with a client is a conversation that serves a purpose where the client can talk things out, think things through and grow. I love to work with children, adolescents and adults, and enjoy incorporating physical activity, yoga, deep breathing and mindfulness meditation into counseling sessions as necessary and at the comfort level of the client/subscriber. I am also able to work with people who have experienced a traumatic brain injury as well as other medical conditions due to my own experience with surviving a stroke in 2020. I am also willing and able to counsel individuals dealing with the loss of a beloved pet or impending loss. Within each of these specific situations there can be grief, loss, depression, guilt, shame and lots of other emotions that need to be processed to work through those things and to be able to move forward and manage life as it changed. One other area of common practice for me to counsel on is job loss or career management. I look forward to working with others and hope to provide a service of counseling that can make a person feel better. hopeful, or at least gain some perspective each time there is a visit and for them to be able to apply the new perspective to their daily life situations.

You’re looking for someone who can understand what you’re going through, what you’ve been through. You want someone you can trust to tell the things you tell no one else. You need someone to guide through what you’re going through and help you get to the other side; a side you probably can’t even see because you’re currently in the middle of it. Don’t lose hope. Never lose hope. Nothing is permanent and change is inevitable. Change can be scary. Don’t let that little voice inside your head tell you you’re not good enough, or you don’t deserve to find happiness. Don’t let the change that needs to happen be for the worst. I can help teach you some ways to cope with your depression; to help you get out of bed everyday and do what you need to do. I can work with you through your anxiety and teach you the best way to handle it as it occurs in your daily life. If you’re feeling stuck and unhappy, I can help guide you through it. I know it sounds corny but it’s true. I can also teach you the skills you need to keep your addiction at bay; if that’s what you need. If you have trauma you need to work through; I’m here for that as well. My name is Kelly and I am a Licensed Counselor in Texas. I’ve worked with parents who’ve had their children removed by CPS. I’ve worked with those in crisis and connected them to services on a mobile crisis team in Georgia. I’ve worked in the foster care system in Texas for a CPA. And right now I’m balancing my own private practice as well as working with the most difficult population I’ve come into contact with as of yet, teenagers with substance abuse and addiction in a treatment facility in Houston, TX. I’ve been practicing for over 5 years and have expertise ranging from: depression, anxiety, substance use, transition and adjustment issues, life changes, and ADHD symptom management among others. I take what I’ve learned and meet you where you currently are in your life. I use your strengths and build upon them to develop the skills you need to get through what you’re going through. I take the time to get to know you before beginning the necessary work on what brought you to therapy. You are not your problems, nor should you be treated like that. Therapy is driven by you and the modality used also depends on what best fits for you. I use motivational interviewing to get to know you, your though processes, and how you see the world before choosing between a solution focused method with cognitive behavioral techniques to help you form the necessary connections between your thoughts and your actions. Once that connection is established we can change your thinking, which will change the behavior you see as mal-adaptive. It's your life and it should be your therapy too.
