You might look like you're holding it all together on the outside while feeling exhausted, anxious, disconnected, or overwhelmed on the inside. Maybe you've spent so much time taking care of everyone else that you've stopped checking in with yourself. Or maybe life changed unexpectedly, and you're trying to figure out who you are now.

If that sounds familiar, you're not alone.

I work with children, teens, adults, couples, families, veterans, first responders, and LGBTQ+ individuals who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship struggles, major life transitions, and the stress that comes from simply trying to keep up. My goal isn't to tell you how to live your life. It's to help you understand yourself more deeply, quiet the constant mental noise, and feel more confident in the choices you make.

Clients often tell me they appreciate that I'm easy to talk to, calm, honest, and genuine. Therapy with me is a place where you don't have to have it all figured out. You can show up exactly as you are, and we'll take it one step at a time.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Abilene

Searching for therapists in Abilene starts with finding someone whose training and focus match what you want support with. Therapists and counselors may help with concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for specialties listed in each therapist’s profile, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, couples counseling, or experience supporting people through major life changes. These details can help you understand whether a therapist’s approach fits your needs before you book.

In a smaller city like Abilene, local appointment options may vary by schedule, office location, and specialty. Virtual therapy can expand your search while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Texas. Some people prefer in-person sessions, while others choose virtual appointments for easier scheduling. As you narrow your options, review whether each therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can also show how they communicate, structure sessions, and describe their approach to care.

Therapy in Abilene can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your coverage, and view estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. You can browse therapist profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
