To say "things aren't always easy" is often an understatement. Sometimes things are more than hard, and may have been piling up for a while. Whether you're battling depression, anxiety, grief, or changes in life, I'm here to help. I've worked with children, teens and adults in an inpatient psychiatric hospital, where they work to sort out their struggles. I have seen the damage trauma can do to relationships, but have also seen the power in connecting with others.

I’m a Doctor of Social Work, Licensed Professional Counselor, National Certified Counselor, and Army combat veteran with degrees in Sociology, Clinical Mental Health Counseling, and Social Work. My approach to therapy is humanistic, compassionate, honest, and practical. I believe that life’s stressors, whether they come from work, relationships, major life changes, past experiences, or simply feeling overwhelmed by everything at once, can affect us in ways that are difficult to manage alone.

I strive to create a space where you feel respected, heard, and understood without judgment.

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 a seasoned psychotherapist who helps individuals and couples create healthy, fulfilling relationships—starting from within. My approach is warm, empathic, and solutions-focused, combining mindful insight with practical strategies for real-life change. Whether you’re healing from past wounds, navigating conflict, or seeking deeper connection, I offer a safe and nonjudgmental space to explore what’s holding you back and build the skills for lasting growth. Clients describe me as calm, grounding, and genuinely invested in their progress—someone who helps them feel seen, supported, and empowered to love with confidence and clarity.

You don't have to fit a certain mold to feel at home in therapy. I'm a secular, non-religious therapist who works primarily with adults and older adolescents who are choosing to be in therapy and ready to make a change. I work with anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, identity, relationships, and life's challenges, with a particular appreciation for clients who consider themselves a little nerdier or outside the mainstream.
