Getting professional help through counseling services with a qualified therapist can help you work through many challenges, but barriers to treatment, like a lack of available providers, can make it challenging to find in-person care. An online platform like BetterHelp can provide an eclectic approach to treatment, making it more accessible and flexible.
While BetterHelp does not provide family counseling at this time, the providers on the platform have extensive experience providing mental health care to individuals. You can work collaboratively with a social worker, psychologist, or bilingual licensed professional counselor from the comfort of home at a time that works for you.
Every provider on the platform has at least a master's degree and extensive professional experience creating a supportive environment while using a client centered approach. Your therapist will get to know your unique needs and tailor your treatment to help you feel comfortable and meet your goals.
Whether you want to learn to manage anxiety, work through the psychological effects of domestic violence, learn to resolve personal conflicts, or get treatment for personality disorders, therapy can help. If you’re looking for a therapist, Mission, TX has many online options available. Connect with one of the providers below to learn more.

Jamie Wells
Hello! My name is Jamie and I am a National Certified Counselor and a Licensed Professional Counselor in the states of Louisiana and Texas. I have been working in the mental health field for 4 years. I have worked with individuals experiencing a variety of issues including addiction, trauma, autism and/or Aspergers, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, self-esteem, LGBTQIA, and borderline personality disorder. I have worked with clients aged 4 to 65. In my third year as an elementary school teacher, I observed that my students needed more than just a capable teacher...several of them were demonstrating struggles with anxiety, thoughts of harm, and more. It is then when I decided to apply to my graduate program. I attended Louisiana Tech University, where I earned a master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I would describe myself as open-minded and relatable. I truly believe that we are all on different paths, but with communication and empathy, we can work together to help each other grow. I would love to help you grow in whatever area you may feel you need. In order to do so, I will utilize a thoughtful combination of Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. I look forward to working with you!

I retired from the Air Force in 1988, and began working in community mental health until 1999, when I started private practice, specializing in severe mental illness for individuals with developmental disorders. I spent a good part of my military career working with individuals with chemical dependency issues. In the past twenty two years, I have experienced significant medical issues; open heart surgery, with ongoing vascular issues, and a two time cancer survivor, with Kidney cancer, and recurring Kidney cancer. I have been cancer free for ten years, but live with that reality. I retired from my private practice over a year ago, but still want to help others, especially those who have issues similar to mine.

Welcome my friends. It's a battle in the heart, so I live by the adage that I will be in my own battle or someone else’s battle for the rest of my life. Our days are like the weather and so are emotions. Many days the sun shines, but the rains do come and sometimes a destructive storm hits hard (a divorce, the loss of a loved one, cancer, suicidal thoughts, et cetera). I have been honored to be in the field of psychology for 21 years since 2004. Through the years, more than half of my time was in the Army where I primarily worked with soldiers enduring anxiety, depression, trauma, Traumatic Brain Injury, and all the other usual suspects of psychological distress such as guilt, fear, worry, shame, pain, heartbreak, addiction, identity conflicts, and sorrow. I’ve also worked in the prisons for many years with extreme situations (i.e., murder, severe mental illness, rape, child molestation, drug kingpins, gang leaders). I have seen many miracles. So, no matter what your circumstances are, never quit and never give up! I’m a combat veteran and retired Army officer, a devout Christian, husband, father, grandfather, and experienced clinical psychologist. Let’s get into the root causes of your battle and find ways to overcome, change, forgive, accept, and move upward toward the light. The darkness will eventually lift, and the light will surely shine again.
