LGBT therapists in Belton, TX

Hello, my name is Shonda Phillips-Young. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Clinical Supervisor. Thank you for taking the time to get to know me better. I am excited to invite you to embark on a transformative journey toward a more balanced and enriched life, where serenity and personal growth await. My passion is fostering a secure, supportive environment where you can express your thoughts and emotions without fear of judgment. Together, we will navigate your challenges and work diligently toward your aspirations. I am dedicated to empowering you throughout the therapeutic process, helping you uncover your inner strengths and resilience. I eagerly look forward to the possibility of joining you on this transformative path toward healing and growth.

You don't have to be in crisis to want therapy. Maybe life is mostly working, but something isn't. You might be dealing with life or work stress, relationship patterns, dating, sexual concerns, anxiety, overthinking, or simply feeling stuck and wanting something to change.

I tend to work best with people who are thoughtful, self-aware, and willing to get curious about themselves. You don't need to know exactly what is wrong or have the right words for it. "Something is bothering me" is enough. What matters more is that you're willing to look honestly at what happens, when it happens, and how you show up in it.

My style is direct, curious, collaborative, and active. We won't just talk about what happened. We'll pay attention to what comes up in session, explore the emotions, needs, and patterns underneath your reactions, and work on responding differently when it matters.

I'm neurodivergent and highly sensitive myself, and my practice is sex-positive, queer-affirming, kink-aware, and welcoming of polyamory and ENM. You don't need to censor or explain who you are here. Come curious and ready to participate. We'll figure out the rest together.

I earned my M.Ed. in Counselor Education from Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, LA. My path into the counseling field has been shaped by a deep passion for both the healing process and holistic wellness. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to work in various levels of care, including residential and intensive outpatient settings, where I gained invaluable clinical experience and a deeper appreciation for mental health care..

I'm Carol Hernandez, a bilingual therapist, mother, and proud Latina woman deeply connected to my culture and community. I grew up between Southern California and the Rio Grande Valley, went to college at UTRGV in South Texas and did my graduate studies at Baylor University. Over the past five years, I've gotten to work in all kinds of settings such as hospitals, inpatient and outpatient programs, and alongside medical teams, which has given me a pretty wide view of how mental health shows up in people's lives. I love working with BIPOC, LGBTQ+, immigrant, and neurodivergent communities. I specialize in issues of anxiety, depression, chronic stress, trauma, big life changes, grief, post partum depression, or just feeling overwhelmed and not feeling like yourself.

Are you struggling with feelings of sadness, inadequacy, or lack of peace? Are you having difficulty coping with life stressors or just day to day circumstances?

Are relationships—whether with family, friends, or yourself—leaving you feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, or disconnected? For more than 13 years, I've worked alongside teens and families in school settings, including 6 years as a mental health counselor and accommodations specialist. I understand the challenges young people face, from anxiety, depression, and ADHD to social pressures, identity development, family conflict, and academic stress. I also work with college students and adults navigating relationships, life transitions, burnout, grief, and anxiety. Therapy can help you feel grounded, understood, and more connected.

I believe therapy should feel like a safe place to be yourself, without judgment or pressure. My goal is to meet you where you are, listen with compassion, and help you feel more understood, confident, and supported along the way.

Challenges shouldn’t just be endured—they should be the catalyst for your breakthrough. My goal is to help you transform life's toughest hurdles into a foundation for lasting resilience and self-discovery, giving you the tools to reclaim your strength and lead a more intentional life.
