Starting this journey—whether it feels overwhelming, hopeful, or somewhere in between—takes courage, and I’m here to support you every step of the way. I work with adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, low self-worth, and the lasting impact of early family dynamics.
If you've been struggling with anxiety, depression, addiction, anger, or behaviors that keep getting in the way of the life you want, you don't have to figure it out alone. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor (LCDC) with 18 years of experience helping people rebuild their lives through criminal reentry. Today, I work with children, teens, adults, and couples who are looking for real change. Over the years, I've learned that no one is defined by their past, and I believe every person is capable of growth when they're given the right support.
I believe everyone can improve their quality of life
Hello! My name is Jesica and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Social Work in 2016, my master’s degree in 2019, and became an LCSW in 2025. My experience includes inpatient behavioral health, supporting individuals with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, religious trauma, relationship challenges, and eating disorders. I'm currently a social worker at the VA hospital with a primary focus in substance use and homelessness.
My passion for mental health is deeply personal. I once experienced my own struggles and had a therapist help me find hope and healing when I needed it most. That experience inspired me to become a therapist who helps others feel seen, supported, and empowered through life’s challenges.
I believe therapy should be a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be your authentic self. My goal is to walk alongside you as you navigate challenges, discover your strengths, and create a life that feels meaningful and fulfilling.
Outside of my work, I’m a wife and a proud mom of three children. I enjoy spending time with my family exploring our community through outdoor activities, local events, concerts, and farmers markets. I also love traveling, experiencing different cultures, cooking, reading, and gardening.
I believe connection, curiosity, and finding joy in everyday moments are important parts of a balanced life, and those values guide both who I am and how I support my clients. If you’re ready to begin your therapy journey, I would be honored to walk alongside you.
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.
Are you in the blame game? Do you blame yourself for events and circumstances beyond your circle of control and influence? You’re one of the millions of people so trapped!
Counseling help is available for you- as a parent, a teenager, young adult, couple, or whatever category that defines your person. As your counselor, your mental health journey is mine. You have POWER within YOU. Utilizing your past experience as a steppingstone to overcome all obstacles.
