Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Denison, TX covered by Aetna

Hi there, and welcome! My name is Rachel, I am a licensed professional counselor using seeing clients of all ages in Texas through video sessions.

If you are inevitably experiencing a life transition and/or any associated grief, loss, anxiety and depression there is no need to continue to suffer. I'm an affirming companion that provides a safe space to help you increase openness to the experience of life, and confront barriers to develop insight-driven movement. We will work to delve into those thoughts and feelings that vex you, identify a diverse understanding and coping skill acquisition that serves you beyond the therapy office.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience working inpatient and outpatient setting with adults and teens. I focus on life transitions we experience at all stages of life, relationship issues, stress, anxiety, depression and all other problems that can be related. My approach is client-centered that puts your unique experience at the center and makes our work very collaborative. I also utilize complimentary tools such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness and many others based on what best suits your own unique experience. I am also Board Certified Grief Counselor (GC-C). This specialization helps me to assist people in working through the 4 tasks of the mourning process as well as helping people navigate the mediators and barriers that lead to complicated mourning. This necessary process works to help alleviate suffering, make meaning in life and to reinvest in life while maintaining connection with who or what you may have lost.

Many symptoms we experience come from our way of perceiving the world and have been learned through any number of good and bad experiences. I believe exploring everyone's unique journey with them has always been one that speaks to my inner sense of purpose. By going down your unique inner world, my role is to be that objective accepting reflection pool that welcomes you to really examine all aspects of yourself and how you exist in your world. To work with someone as they explore any loss of purpose or a sense of isolation from themselves or others and be there to foster their way to meaning making and mastery over their suffering is one of the most uplifting experiences in my personal and professional life.

Compassionate Care for all patients in a therapeutic and safe manner

You may be feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism-related challenges, parenting concerns, or a major life transition. Whatever brings you to therapy, I want to provide a space where you feel understood, supported, and comfortable being yourself.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate with a master’s degree from Lamar University and a bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Texas A&M University. My journey to becoming a therapist began in education, where I worked as both a teacher and school counselor in the Dallas area. Supporting children, adolescents, and families during those years showed me the importance of feeling understood and supported, and those experiences continue to shape the way I practice today.

I work with children, teens, adults, and parents across Texas through virtual therapy. My approach is collaborative, strengths-based, and neurodivergent-affirming, with a focus on helping clients better understand themselves, navigate challenges, and create meaningful change in their lives.

In addition to therapy, I have experience conducting diagnostic evaluations for ADHD, autism, and a range of mental health concerns, as well as immigration evaluations. This work has deepened my appreciation for the unique ways each person experiences the world and reinforced the importance of understanding the whole person rather than focusing solely on a diagnosis.

I have over 24 years of experience working with all different age groups and diagnoses. I have extensive experience working with complex trauma to include military, veteran and first responder related experiences. I have years of experience working with PTSD, moral injury and survivor's guilt.

I am a former educator who specializes in anxiety/depression. I have worked with various populations and enjoy supporting clients from different backgrounds working through stress, anxiety, depression, sleep concerns, and behavior regulation. I take a holistic, personalized approach and enjoy using technology and behavioral insights to support lasting growth.

I am Donna Stribling, and I have worked in health and mental health settings for most of my career, with a primary focus on inpatient medical care and outpatient mental health. I value this work because it allows me to connect with people, listen to their experiences, and support them as they work toward meaningful goals. I want my clients to feel welcomed, respected, and encouraged as they begin their healing journey. I believe my work is a ministry.
