Hello! I'm Kim Ferren and I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 20 years experience, licensed in the state of Texas. I have a Master's in Counseling and have extensive experience working with individuals, couples, and families. I've worked in the clinical setting, in private practice, and in the in-patient hospital setting. My therapeutic approach can best be described as client-focused, with an emphasis on cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, and family systems. It's important to me to provide a calm and safe environment where you know you will be listened to and not judged. The client/therapist relationship is a key component in successful therapy, so I strive to establish a good rapport, then we will work as a team to establish goals and move forward. Life presents many challenges, most of which we can confidently deal with; but there are times when we get stuck, or we've been deeply wounded, and we just don't know what to do. Asking for help is a great first step in finding your way through the tough moments.

Hi -My name is Sharon Blanchard and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas. Since 1995, I have been counseling in K-12 school settings and teaching counseling courses at the graduate level as well as working with individuals through their mental health concerns. I have supported parents as they navigate the demands of parenting challenging children/teens. I have counseled young adults as they embark on a journey into the professional world or new relationship and are conflicted about who they are emotionally and/or spiritually. I also have counseled with middle-age adults as they make some tough life decisions and are seeking guidance in their circumstances. I, too, have been through the counseling process as an adult and it was such a meaningful experience! Most of my experience revolves around depression, anxiety, interpersonal relationships, parenting issues, career counseling, and self-understanding. Although my experiences and clients are varied, I believe that all adults (and children) do the best they can with what they know. I think it's important to LISTEN and HEAR what you are saying as you share your situation(s) and emotions. I believe that I can help you sift through all of the "junk" and facilitate new revelations that can change your outlook and your life. I am a Christian and we can explore that influence as little or as much as you desire. I want to be whatever you need as you explore and develop a refreshed sense of YOU as you are healing. You are beautifully and wonderfully made and you deserve to live life to the fullest! I've been a therapist with BetterHelp since 2021 and I'm excited that you are taking the first step to a more peaceful life as you seek support! If you think I could be of help to you, please reach out and let's get started on your journey to healing.

There is no roadmap to guide us through life. When things happen, there is no set of instructions on how to emotionally navigate various situations. Let’s face it: adulting is not easy, no matter what age you are! Life can get overwhelming sometimes. Having someone to talk to during these difficult times of life’s stressors and transitions means you don’t have to carry the weight alone. Whether you are experiencing stress, emotional pain, relational struggles, or just need support, I am here to help. I also offer femininity coaching. My history of being a pageant girl and loving all things class and etiquette led me to incorporate a component of femininity coaching into my practice. I understand the struggles of being a woman, wife, daughter, aunt, and sister and all the hats we wear in those roles. I want to empower women to live a more vibrant life! I look forward to hearing from you!

42 years offering treatment
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.

Life can get overwhelming at times. Sometimes we face challenges in our careers that leave us feeling unfulfilled, or we experience friction in our relationships that leave us feeling isolated, while at other times we may struggle to love ourselves for the unique and wonderful beings that we are. My goal as your therapist is to allow you to be heard and validated, while working toward the changes you would like to see occur in your own life. Through a collaborative therapeutic relationship, we will identify solutions and practice skills that will allow you to resolve any challenges that you face. I have been a licensed social worker in the state of Texas since 2018. I received my Master of Social Work (MSW) with specialization in Mental health and substance use, from University of Texas at Arlington. I have worked in behavioral health throughout my career, although I have taken a brief adventure outside the field in 2020 to teach English language to high school students in Myanmar, Southeast Asia. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, bipolar disorder, and depression. I am also a LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist and support diversity, inclusion, and equality. You are the author of your story and you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you in life. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. I am here to support and empower you in that journey!
