I'm so happy you're here and so happy that you're taking an important step towards positive change in your life. Nothing brings me more joy than to be able to be a part of your journey while we work towards your goals. I've been partnering with adults for the past 8 years in private practice as a licensed therapist and 3 years as a life coach working with college-aged adults. Former and current clients appreciate my honest straightforward approach to counseling as well as my ability to patiently and compassionately hold space for answers to emerge. The struggles of life are not meant to be all-consuming or overwhelming and as self-sufficient as most of us are, we all need help at some point. I know I've benefitted from being able to talk through my worries and concerns with the help of a trained therapist and know what the experience is like in either seat. I was trained in pastoral counseling and at Loyola University in Chicago and can assist if your concerns are more spiritual in nature and when they are not take a more traditional approach. I draw from relational schools of thought- psychodynamic, humanistic and Adlerian but apply them in a straightforward pragmatic fashion to keep the process brief and effective. Having been trained and educated in diverse settings, I have experience working with many different types of people with many different concerns. In particular, spiritual and religious questions, LGBT issues, anxiety and coping with grief and loss are areas that I can support you the most. I look forward to working with you as we take the next steps in your journey together.

Danielle Bryant
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Affiliate Sex Offender Treatment Provider in Texas with 8 years of professional work experience. I am a graduate of a Texas-based Christian university, and began my early years of counseling/therapy throughout my collegiate experience as a college campus Residence Life Assistant and Assistant Director. The experiences I have had throughout my professional journey has given me insight into lives that have been enlightened and enriched by connection and community. My hope is that you'll see yourself as special for the uniqueness you possess, and that you bring into the world. My personality is one that's light and a little quirky. I am someone who enjoys laughing and making others laugh, and I love food. I believe in the power of music and the color purple. My therapeutic style is one that is encouraging and collaborative, and I don't like to tell you what to do. I believe that as we talk and interact together, you can learn many things about yourself, and answer questions that have the ability to create a path for you that you can appreciate and ultimately get excited about. I believe therapy continues in your daily life outside of the "therapeutic space" as you learn to create a space that enriches you. I have helped clients cope with and overcome addictions, family conflicts, life transitions, & trauma and abuse. I also have experience helping clients with depression, anxiety, self-esteem development, couple's counseling, adolescents in CPS care and on juvenile probation, and much more. I believe that as the expert of your story, you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things, and making peace with what challenges you. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life, and to take the first steps towards change. As your therapist, I am here to support and empower you in that journey, and I'm excited to see you elevate along the way.

Dorian Turner
Hello! Welcome to the BetterHelp community! My name is Dorian Turner and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Chicago, IL. I have been providing psychotherapy for a wide variety of issues and populations for 5 + years. I graduated from Chicago State University with a Master in Social Work. I have spent most of my career working with youth in the school setting, seniors and the disabled in the community mental health setting as well as in the hospital setting. I would describe my approach as goal oriented, and client centered. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). Both modalities are hands-on, practical approaches to problem-solving. CBT treatment usually involves efforts to change thinking patterns and or behaviors. The goals are to change patterns of thinking or behavior that are behind difficult situations, and so change the way they feel. This helps people identify faulty or unhelpful ways of thinking and learn better ways of coping with life's full variety of stressors.

Janell Myers
Hi! I am a Texas licensed Doctor of therapy (PhD, LPC) with decades of experience, and I still continue to enjoy working with clients to help them reach their goals. I am interactive, personable, and stay focused on YOU. My academic and professional training has focused on marriage/relationship issues and all addictive behaviors and caring for those with addiction problems. Relationship problems we can work on can be between family members, friendships, romantic relationships, or any other connections in your world. Whether you need to discuss problems from your past, or concerns about your future, I believe it is often productive to stay in the present. What do you need TODAY? I want to help you build on what is right in your life, not just what is wrong with you and others in your life. If you are concerned for yourself or someone in your family who is aged 10 or above and you think I would be a good fit for you, let's talk!
