I am Casey , Licensed Professional Counselor. I have been in the mental health field since 1994 and licensed since 2002. My experience ranges from working with the chronically mentally ill in public mental health, private practice, inpatient psychiatric, diagnostics/assessment, crisis intervention, anger management, and employee assistance. My primary approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and the effectiveness it has in pointing out negative thought patterns. I also love to use Solution-Focused Therapy as well. Through CBT I can help you see unconscious schemas that are leading you to do what you do, where they came from, how they developed, and ultimately how to become your own therapist reframing and moving forward on your own. I love working with all individuals but feel that I have a specific skill in understanding people who feel thrown away, bullied, and/or marginalized in society. Historically, I have always done very well with people that no one else seems to be able to help or reach. In your first session you can expect to have me ask questions of you so I can understand who you are, where you come from, what has shaped your beliefs and perceptions, and to ultimately plot a course for something better. Most people are nervous and do not know what to expect so what I will say is we will just talk. While I do happen to be licensed, I am human, equal, and not above anyone. I will make telephonic/televideo therapy every bit as personal as face to face. I am also very analytical and able to see/put together patterns, diagnoses, and have an excellent ability to "turn on the windshield wipers in the rain" for my clients. As a result of surviving my own trauma as well as being a survivor of a disaster, I realize that one event in anyone's lives can reverse the side of the desk they are sitting on. There is always that one event(s) that can put the counselor into the position of the client as well and shows our vulnerability as humans. I make it a point to come across as approachable and not superior and I am VERY responsive to my clients. . Also finally, please note: If you are covered under CVS/Aetna EAP then please choose another therapist as I am unable to accept these clients due to a conflict of interest. Also please note, due to time constraints, that I am only doing individual counseling and not couple's counseling.

My name is Karen Medlock. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in both Texas and Louisiana. I have two Masters' Degrees, one in Social Work and one in Theology. I take a holistic approach with my clients. I have worked with all age groups, from three years old all the way in the eighties. Yes, I have been around awhile. I have teaching certifications in Michigan and taught Kindergarten through twelfth grade. The experiences I had as a teacher were tremendous and very helpful in my therapeutic relationships with adolescents and teenagers. I enjoy working with all age groups and totally enjoy diversity in culture, race and sexual orientation. I ran and did sexual offender treatment with male adult offenders at Norton Correctional Center in Norton, Kansas, which gave me a great magnitude of skills in addiction treatment, running groups and providing psycho-social classes in multitudes of topics. I would have to say working with inmates in state prisons is very rewarding for me because I can now view them as people with problems from the past that have never been dealt with for the most part. Also, I have much experience in helping people work through trauma and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, including the severe panic attacks that occur. I have worked extensively with grief and loss. I am very excited to be a part of Better Help because it is a way for people who need help to access me at various times via text, phone or video. It is a good medium for all those who are a bit shy to meet in person (or aren't ready) or have tight schedules. I am very excited to work with you! I am quite a laid-back therapist, and always respond to where you are in your life-path. We all are on personal life journeys...let's use this time to explore and traverse new worlds and paths! I will help you develop your strengths and accompany you on your journey.

Hello & Welcome! I am very happy that you have found my profile on BetterHelp. I am currently licensed in the state of Texas as an Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I have lived on and off in Texas since high school and my graduation from Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas. My primary training is as an Art Therapist from Southern Illinois University, Edwardsville, Illinois. Since graduating from SIUE, I have worked for over 20 years providing adult, adolescent, and children's therapy to individuals seeking help and support through counseling. I have worked in adult community mental health settings, where I provided both individual and group therapy to those individuals affected by anxiety, depression, mood swings, and other issues related to wanting to live their best life - only needing help and support to recover and grow! I have also worked with individuals affected by trauma such as domestic violence and other types of interpersonal or partner violence. Whether in Illinois, or Texas, I have continued to grow as a professional and have additional training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I continue to focus my continuing education on how trauma, depression, and anxiety, and other mental health issues impact attachment, development, and the brain. This next year of professional education and growth will focus heavily on cultural diversity, awareness of privilege and disparity, and how to best support and help individuals in the LGBTQIA+ community, and Persons of Color (POC). I grew up mostly in Iowa before being transplanted to Texas in my teens. Graduate school took me back to the Midwest in the St. Louis area, where I stayed for 10 years post graduation. It was there that I was introduced to yoga and became interested in meditation and other mindfulness practices. I enjoy spending time with friends and family, and hanging out with my dogs, I believe in having a Wellness Plan for myself that includes time for reflection, reading, exercise, eating good food, and taking trips with my fiancé. I love to go to Big Bend and hike, and to enjoy the people in the vast desert of West Texas. Love the smell of the creosote and wide blue skies. My next state to explore would be Colorado! Not sure that I have a 'bucket list' but enjoy having new experiences, traveling, and learning to appreciate the differences in culture among people and different regions of the United States. My therapeutic framework is heavily influenced by Attachment, Development and the impact of trauma on individuals. As I have grown as professional therapist, I continue to incorporate on going education and learning around Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and more recently Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I feel strongly that counseling should be person-centered, developing a foundation of trust and safety so that the therapeutic relationship starts with what the individual has identified and prioritized to be important to them. Regardless of the therapeutic approach, I believe in helping to challenge and change feelings, thoughts and behaviors that are not currently working for my client. Overall, therapy is about problem solving, improving emotional regulation, and the development of personal coping strategies that support the ability for everyone to Live, Laugh & Love. I look forward to hearing from you and finding out how I can best help and support you through this process using the BetterHelp platform with video, text, and email. BetterHelp is an awesome way to explore the benefits and flexibility of having a therapist who fits into your schedule through the non-traditional growth of telehealth and virtual counseling!

Is mental health care and therapy with a therapist worth it?
Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives.

An experienced clinician can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based licensed clinician in Balch Springs, Texas can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.
Balch Springs has many clinicians who practice person or client-centered individual therapy in-person and through online sessions to assist clients in their healing journey.

Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?
The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you.
