I have experience working with military families and children going through reintegration processes, and understanding new family dynamics. I have experience working with children and youth who are facing social, academic, and identity concerns. I have experience working with foster and adopted youth.

I’m Shelly Hughes, LCSW, a therapist and the owner of Wonder Works Counseling. I earned my Master of Social Work from the University of Oklahoma in 2022 and my Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice from Oklahoma City University. My approach to therapy is warm, practical, trauma-informed, and focused on helping clients understand themselves rather than simply trying to “fix” symptoms.
I work with children, adolescents, and adults experiencing anxiety, ADHD, trauma, PTSD, emotional dysregulation, life transitions, relationship difficulties, and challenges related to self-esteem and coping. I have specialized training in EMDR, Play Therapy, Sand Tray Therapy, Somatic Therapy, CBT, and DBT. With children, I often use play-based approaches to help them communicate and process experiences in ways that feel natural and developmentally appropriate. With adults, I integrate evidence-based approaches with trauma-focused and somatic techniques to help clients develop greater emotional awareness, regulation, and resilience.
I believe therapy should be a place where you can be honest without feeling judged. Many of the people I work with have spent years feeling misunderstood, overwhelmed, or like they are somehow “too much” or “not enough.” My goal is to create a space where you can slow down, understand what is happening beneath the surface, and develop tools that actually fit your life.
I especially enjoy working with clients who are navigating ADHD, trauma, anxiety, emotional regulation difficulties, and relationship or family stress. I also work with parents who are trying to better understand and support their children.
My goal is not to tell you who you should be. It is to help you understand yourself, heal from what you have experienced, and build a life that feels more manageable and authentic to you.
Hello, I’m Tracy, a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 25 years of experience walking alongside children, teens, and families.
In our sessions, you’ll find a calm, welcoming space where you can exhale, feel heard, and begin to make sense of what’s going on. I work especially with teens and young adults facing anxiety, mild depression, low self-esteem, school pressures, or life transitions like divorce or moving. Together, we process what's been going on, build practical coping skills, and create a path forward so you can feel more confident, steady, and in control again.
Before becoming a therapist, I spent decades as a teacher, school counselor, and administrator, so I understand what it feels like when school stress, family changes, or big emotions start to feel overwhelming.
You might feel stuck between who you thought you’d be by now and where life has actually taken you. Maybe you’re navigating a new diagnosis, old patterns that won’t let go, or relationships that feel like the same argument on repeat. As someone in long‐term recovery who once struggled to launch into adulthood, I understand how overwhelming it can be to rebuild your life from the inside out. I work with adults 17+ of all genders, and I have specific experience supporting people living with bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, and men who are exploring identity, emotions, and connection.
Hi, I'm Tina Simmons, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and founder of Sharon Davis Counseling PLLC. I provide a supportive, judgment-free space where adults can navigate life's challenges, build resilience, and move forward with hope. I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use and recovery concerns, life transitions, and the unique challenges faced by veterans and military spouses. I believe healing remains possible—even during life's hardest moments.
You don’t have to carry it all alone! I strive to create a safe space for you to share your concerns, hopes, and goals. I work with adult clients struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, career, relationships, addictions, compulsions, among other issues. I received my Master of Science in Counseling from Southern Methodist University. The majority of my career has been in finance, where I have worked as a financial advisor. I was born and raised in Texas and I have a deep understanding of various cultures and religions. I enjoy sports, music, and spending time with loved ones.
I want to hear your story and how your beliefs shape your thoughts which lead to your actions. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help you break unwanted loops. I also find value in Adlerian principles of finding one's place and creating valuable social connections and relationships.
Greetings! I am Terrance S. Tufts, M.A., LPC. I have experience working with clients with anxiety, depression, and men's issues just to name a few. Life can be hard sometimes and in those trying times, we all need someone who is willing to listen and it is my pleasure to be someone who will listen to you and help you navigate life's challenges!

In my practice, I work with clients experiencing adjustment disorders, anxiety, depression, and family challenges. I strive to create a compassionate, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and empowered to make meaningful changes in their lives.
Choosing to begin therapy is a meaningful step, and I'm honored to support clients as they navigate life's challenges. As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas, I bring more than 20 years of experience working with adolescents, adults, seniors, and families. I provide therapy in both English and Spanish, making it easier for clients to express themselves in the language in which they feel most comfortable. My background includes over two decades as a school counselor and the past five years in private practice, giving me a deep understanding of the emotional, relational, and life challenges people face across different stages of life.
I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship concerns, and major life transitions. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, struggling with difficult emotions, or simply looking for a safe space to grow, I strive to provide a supportive and nonjudgmental environment where you can feel heard and understood.
