Therapists in The Colony, TX

Hello Fellow Traveler! I believe life is a journey full of bumps and bruises. I am just another travel ready and equipped to guide you through the rough patches. I have worked in education with children for over 20 years, and I have been a licensed professional counselor for 6 years. My style of therapy is open and eclectic based upon the needs of my client. Our goal in therapy is to guide you through whatever obstacle has been placed in your path. I believe in an honest direct approach in which you the client will learn to assume responsibility and take ownership and control over whatever is effecting your life. I am a 42 year old Black American with Latino background. I believe in unity and multiculturalism. When I welcome you into my practice my goal is for you to feel comfortable and not judged. The more you are comfortable, the better the experience and I will provide that safe harbor you may need in times of worry and doubt. I come from a single parent household, and I understand what it is like to struggle. I work very well with young adults and families, but I am also very well versed in other areas such as anxiety, depression, drug addiction with or without dual diagnoses, anger management, work related stressors, as well as parenting and Autism. It is my sincere hope that this small introduction made you feel welcomed! So come on in and lets work together!

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing for more than 20 years and find great satisfaction in watching clients achieve a more personally acceptable quality of life. Though I have worked with a wide variety of populations, for the last 13 years I have been working in a clinical setting with adults experiencing a variety of issues from abandonment, loss of independence, grief and general adjustment to life stressors. I would consider my therapeutic style to be encouraging when necessary but I am also willing to give some firm feedback when necessary. I find that building a therapeutic relationship to be the most reliable tool in ensuring you get the most from your counseling experience. Whether you are dealing with stress, relational issues, debilitating mood problems or simply in need of a sounding board, I believe we can work together to bring you to needed changes or insights. It is my belief that even the bad parts of our lives can be woven together to make a suit of armor that is protective, not necessarily something that drags behind weighing us down. Together, we can make this transition. I look forward to our journey!

I entered the field of counseling and mental health in 2004 based on my love and interest in interacting with people. I felt drawn to a helping profession as I recognized how the course of my life had changed based on the positive influences of others in my life. I am from Oklahoma and graduated from the University of Oklahoma twice (Boomer Sooner!). In 2005, I graduated with my degree in Psychology and a minor in Philosophy. I completed my Master’s in Education with an emphasis in Community Counseling in 2009. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 13 years of experience. I began my career in the reunification of children and families who had been in the foster care system in Oklahoma. I am familiar with the court system and feel passionately about helping families learn to parent effectively together in challenging situations. In 2010, I became a school counselor. This provided me with a great understanding of schools and the struggles that children often face in a group setting. Teens are also one of my favorite populations to work with and I enjoy the unique balance between childhood and adulthood they bring. I have worked in many areas of the counseling field and have truly loved the different dynamics that they offer. I utilize a holistic approach, incorporating the physical, emotional, spiritual, and social well-being. My focus has been children, teens, and families but I enjoy working with a variety of people.

“Counseling is like a journey, it’s your journey, I am only a guide, still I am willing to take this journey with you and walk beside you while providing the support you need”. On this journey if we discover you have a broken heart, we can find and pick up the pieces so you can be free to love, receive love and trust again. Maybe you've been hurt so bad and feel numb, let’s go searching for that person who once cared, and you can take what you can carry, and we’ll leave the rest behind Hello, my name is Daniel Carney, and I am Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas and over the past 25 years I have lead many on a journey of discovering the obstacle/s which are preventing them from living the life they choose to live, plus finding a path which leads to awareness of a true life purpose, and helping each to instill the courage and self-confidence to live the life they choose to live, a life of meaning. My experience with counseling has led to the belief that not only are all unique, but also how each interprets their life experiences. Thus, my approach to counseling is not restricted to a one-size-fits-all perceptive that’s why I have learned to utilize an integrated approach to counseling. This elective approach allows me to draw from a variety of contemporary evidence-based theories/techniques that are proven most effective in addressing each individual concern, while taking into consideration each person’s unique personality characteristics and experiences. Through the means of acceptance, respect, listening, and understanding, I strive in providing a safe and supportive interactive environment; a place where individuals feel safe and free to explore their inner and external worlds. I have experience in helping clients with: Anxiety/Stress Issues, Depressive/Mood Symptoms, Relationship Issues, Trauma, Vocational/Career, Personality Disorders, Bereavement/Grief/Loss, and Spirituality/Religious Issues and work with Couples and ages 12 and beyond. So are you ready to take your journey
