Therapists in Hackberry, TX

I finished my Master in Counseling degree in 1997. I opened my own practice, Passionately Ever after Counseling, in 1999 in Collin County, Texas. As I grew my practice I did contract work with major outplacement firms, an alcohol treatment center and a methadone clinic. In my private practice, I have worked with individual adults, couples and teenagers and/or their families. In addition, I have supervised many counseling interns. Through my own individual counseling and training, I have mastered the art of helping clients identify, respect and honor their free child, viewed as the soul and essence of who they really are. Allowing that "spirit" or "energy" to inspire their life and choices will transform their life into an exciting and passionate adventure. It is this "free spirit" in me that led to the genesis of Passionately Ever After Counseling.

I am a marriage and family therapist licensed in Texas with over 19 years of experience. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and parenting problems. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. I work with individuals and couples who are struggling with relationship concerns. As a trained therapist in Europe, South America and the United states I am comfortable working with individuals in both Spanish and English. My approach is informed by my eclectic experiences. Specifically, I see treatment as a co-created process, drawing from state-of-the-art interventions and individual needs. Within the therapeutic relationship, I empower clients to gain insight and make lasting change. Attending therapy for relationship issues can be scary. I know choosing the right therapist can be a difficult and frustrating process. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Just visiting this site and looking through profiles represents a major step towards improvement. Because I approach the work of psychotherapy from a systemic perspective, I am fortunate to work with children and teens in tandem with parent support work. I look forward to working with you!

My name is Michael Atwood and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas. I have been fully licensed since 2018 but have been working in the mental health field since 2012. I have worked in a large variety of treatment setting including residential rehab, prison, hospitals, partial hospitalization, and traditional outpatient. I have worked with groups, individuals and couples with clients of varying age, ethnicity and background. I enjoy the Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy view of mental health but have studied a variety of other views to be flexible with clients needs. Outside of therapy I enjoy playing games with my friends and family. My experience with a variety of video games, board games and role playing games such as Dungeons and Dragons has helped me be able to connect with young adults and the young at heart as well as equipped me with a different set of problem solving skills that couldn't be learned in a classroom. I enjoy breaking down a problem and finding different tools and skills for solving those problems. If that sounds like something you would be interested in too then I would be happy to get to know you; and work with you to improve things.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and have been working in the mental health field for about eight years. I have worked with adolescents, adults, and the elderly. I have helped individuals adjust to major life changes such as grief and loss, depression, anxiety, chronic illness, anger management, pain management, and other issues individuals experience. I provide an empathetic, compassionate and nonjudgmental space for my clients to be accepted and feel safe. I utilize person-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and a strength-based approach to meet each individual's needs while also being culturally competent. During the initial visit, we will begin discussing what brought you to therapy and what you would like to receive from our sessions together.

I have been providing counseling for the past 40 years. I began my career at MHMR, gaining experience in individual and family therapy. I moved on to private practice focusing on abuse issues and trauma, depression, anxiety, anger management and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). I have seen over 100 Vietnam Veterans and 10 Desert Storm Veterans for diagnosis and treatment of PTSD. I have also worked with adult and child victims of physical/sexual/emotional abuse. I currently provide counseling services to the local public school system, working with students with an Emotional Disability, Autism and Other Health Impairment (OHI). My approach to counseling is based on trust and communication. Without a healthy therapeutic relationship, counseling is usually non-effective. I believe, broadly, in a Cognitive-Behavioral approach. However, processing of emotional issues is sometimes necessary for an individual to move forward in their life. I have found that clients do best when they see that someone is "in their corner." I have been married for 40 years and have a blended family. My wife is Mexican-American, so I have experience in multi-cultural issues. As a parent and grandparent, I am aware of the tremendous issues facing parents of today.
