Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Abilene, TX

My clinical style is warm, structured, and collaborative. I emphasize clear communication and shared decision-making with my patients. I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental environment where people feel heard and respected.

I have an AGACNP background, which supports my ability to assess medical comorbidity and understand complex medical/psychiatric overlap. I am also DOT-certified, which reflects my knowledge of safety-sensitive considerations and careful medication risk assessment.

• My approach to therapy is interactive and collaborative, focused on your self discovery and growth. I see our work as a partnership where your voice, values, and goals matter. Together, we will explore what is bringing you to therapy and clarify the changes you hope to see in your life, relationships, and overall sense of well being.
• I prefer to join in with my clients rather than sit back and simply observe. We will actively work together to identify patterns, build insight, and develop practical tools that enhance your quality of life. I will offer gentle guidance, ask thoughtful questions, and invite your feedback so our sessions feel useful and relevant to you.
• I believe the therapy relationship is designed to support the change you are seeking. Our work will help you move toward those desired shifts at a pace that feels right, while honoring what is most important to you. If you are ready to explore your next steps in a collaborative, supportive space, I would be honored to walk alongside you.

Hi there, I’m Patrice Noel, a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing tele-health care across Texas. I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults, and I support people navigating anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, psychosis, ADHD, OCD, trauma, substance use, grief, sleep concerns, eating disorders, and major life transitions. I believe asking for help is a real act of strength, and I’m proud to create an inclusive space for a wide range of individuals, including LGBTQ+ clients and military veterans.

I take a fresh, integrative approach to individualized psychotherapy, tailoring treatment to each client's unique needs and goals. My work is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps clients better understand and regulate their thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and reactions.

I also incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), helping clients develop greater acceptance of difficult emotions and circumstances that may be outside of their control while taking meaningful action aligned with their personal values. With seven years of experience as both a Group Facilitator and Individual Therapist in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I utilize evidence-based skills and mindfulness practices to help clients improve emotional regulation, increase self-awareness, and build resilience.

Hi! I’m Jennifer Wilson. I’ve been a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) for over 15 years. I received my Bachelor’s in Psychology and Master’s in Social Work from The University of Texas at Austin.

I believe the heart of effective therapy is a genuine human connection. I am Gottman and EMDR trained and have certifications in several other modalities, but above technique, I believe in safe, authentic and agile connection to find healing.

I specialize in assessing and treating depression, anxiety, trauma, child welfare, adoption, family of origin complications, relationship concerns, attachment issues, and parenting concerns. I enjoy counseling individuals across the lifespan. I am in the process of becoming trained in EMDR for treatment of trauma and PTSD. I am also working on a Yoga Teacher certification as well.

I specialize in addiction, anxiety, grief, anger, depression, and coping issues. I utilize a variety of Cognitive Behavioral, Solution-Focused, Narrative, and other therapy techniques.

Are you wondering if you need rehab? I have done over 7000 substance abuse assessments in my career. I can provide experienced clinical input. I’m a versatile, practical therapist who can help with a variety of mood, coping, and adjustment issues.
