I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with teens, adults, and children ages 7 and older navigating anxiety, trauma, and relationship challenges. My approach is warm, collaborative, and focused on helping you feel understood and supported. I draw from person-centered therapy, attachment work, mindfulness, and I’m trained in EMDR to help process past experiences. I especially enjoy working with clients who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected.
I am passionate about helping individuals overcome mental and emotional obstacles and believe that therapy should be a collaborative experience. With a focus on sexual trauma, PTSD, LGBTQIA+, and serious and persistent mental illness, I am equipped to provide comprehensive mental health services to adults of any age. In addition to my clinical work, I am an animal lover and avid reader, and I bring these passions into my therapeutic approach. I welcome clients from all walks of life, including those who practice polyamory, open relationships, or other non-traditional relationship dynamics. Kink-friendly.
With a doctorate in developmental psychology, I bring both expertise and a down-to-earth approach to helping people find clarity and direction when life feels overwhelming. Originally from the Midwest, I’ve called Texas home for three decades, where I enjoy family life, yoga, travel, and the challenge of keeping up with too many pets. I bring warmth, experience, and a touch of humor to therapy, walking alongside clients as they navigate growth and change with compassion and perspective.
Hello, I’m Dr Wiesner. I have a PhD in counseling. I was a professor teaching graduate students for seven years. During this time I was the director of a ten room counseling clinic at the university. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor for those new to the field, a Nationally Certified Counselor, and a Certified Clinical Mental Health Counselor.
I strive to be respectful and care about clients achieving their goals as quickly as possible. I taught diagnoses nine semesters at the university. I have published several research papers in peer reviewed journals and have made 7 presentations at the state and national level. I taught research methods and statistics but what really matters to me aren’t my degrees etc..but wanting you to live a zest filled life.
I have a degree in engineering and a MBA but left engineering to focus on assisting clients find and achieve goals that are important to them. Engineering trained me to think logically and to problem solve with an emphasis on practical issues and being practical. Practical and long lasting results is my focus.
I’m a member of Mensa and have been in the American Counseling Association and the Texas Counseling Association. While I have treated a long list of issues my main focus has been working with couples, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and past trauma.
If you choose me I would feel honored to help as best I can. I work with age ranges from six year olds to seniors. I like to say I want difficult and complex cases but you are not a case.
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.
Hi! I'm Amy. From my background in early childhood education, to my master's in counseling from the University of North Texas, from an internship with an addiction-focused residential site to EMDR training to clinical leadership in a partial hospitalization program, I use my wide breadth of experience to inform my practice.
Life can be challenging, and sometimes we all need a safe place to talk, process our experiences, and find a way forward. I believe counseling is a collaborative journey where you can feel heard, understood, and supported without judgment.
My goal is to help you navigate life’s challenges, develop healthy coping skills, strengthen your relationships, and build confidence as you move toward a healthier and more fulfilling life. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, stress, relationships, parenting, life transitions, or simply feel stuck, you don't have to face it alone.
I’m here to walk alongside you as you work toward positive change and greater well-being.

Hello! My name is Marcie and I am a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. My passion is helping individuals find their peace, confidence, and clarity.
