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

I have a Ph.D in Counseling. I've been a therapist since 1984 and I listen very well. I help clients with anxiety, depression and relationship issues and more.

Clients describe me as someone who’s compassionate, but who will “tell it like it is.” I believe that most problems in our relationships and well-being come from unmet needs in childhood. I help my clients learn to heal through mindfulness, reparenting, and finding a sense of safety through Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) or somatic therapy. At the same time, we need to identify and challenge negative beliefs that we have about ourselves and the world. This is a process called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Through therapy, we can develop self-awareness, healthy boundaries, and assertive communication. These are skills we can all learn to help us feel better and work towards the life and healthy relationships we want.

My name is Mysti and I have been a therapist for almost 15 years. I have worked in hosptial settings, agency settings, and private practice. Along with working with clients, I also supervise LPC-Associates who are working on their hours toward full licenure. I have a Master's in Counseling from Dallas Baptist University which was very infuential in recieving my intership at The Samaritan Inn years ago, a homeless shelter in Collin County. I then returned to the INN years later as their Counseling Team Lead and just recently finished my shelter career there as their Chief Program Officer. Treatment areas I love to walk along side are: depression, anxiety, grief/ loss, unexpected life transitions, self identity, faith transitions, cancer journeys, and women's issues.

LIFE be LIFING...You’ve been carrying a lot for a long time. Maybe anxiety, depression, past experiences, or high-stress situations are starting to catch up with you, and it’s getting harder to manage on your own. You might feel stuck in patterns you don’t fully understand or unsure how to move forward. If you’re ready to feel more in control, break unhealthy cycles, and finally have space to focus on yourself, we can work together to help you create clarity, stability, and real, lasting change.

If you are carrying the weight of anxiety, burnout, or a major life transition, I offer a warm, non-judgmental space to help you find yourself again. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over a decade of experience specializing in maternal mental health and student life transitions. I completed my Master of Science in Counseling at Southern Methodist University and focus on providing flexible, deeply personalized care tailored to your unique journey.

If you're the one everyone else leans on, welcome. You've found a space where you don't have to perform.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 13 years of experience, I help adolescents (12+) and adults navigate anxiety, burnout, life transitions, and the lasting weight of trauma. My approach is warm, collaborative, trauma-informed, and I'm trained in Brainspotting, integrating music and creative practices when they fit. Sessions with me feel like real conversation, clinically grounded, never clinical-feeling.

You are not broken, and you were never meant to be fixed. Whenever you're ready, I'd be honored to begin.
