Life can feel overwhelming when stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship challenges, or major transitions start to pile up. Therapy can be a space where you slow down, feel understood, and begin making sense of what you’re experiencing. For over a decade, I’ve worked alongside individuals navigating some of life’s hardest moments, including trauma, substance use recovery, mental health struggles, family stress, and major life changes. I became a therapist because I genuinely care about people and believe everyone deserves support, hope, and the opportunity to heal. No matter where you're starting from, we'll work together to help you build on your strengths and create meaningful change one step at a time.

Jesica Hill

Jesica Hill

Therapist

Virtual • Texas


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.

Brandi Mizell

Therapist

Virtual • Texas


I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely safe, heard, and understood. My goal is to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can openly process your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and life experiences without feeling rushed or criticized. I understand that starting therapy can feel vulnerable, so I approach each client with compassion, curiosity, and respect for their unique story and lived experience.

My style is warm, relational, and conversational while still grounded in evidence-based practices. I work collaboratively with clients to help them better understand emotional patterns, increase self-awareness, strengthen communication, and develop practical tools they can use outside of sessions. I value creating a therapeutic relationship that feels authentic and empowering, where clients can feel comfortable being honest, asking questions, and moving at a pace that feels manageable for them.

I work with individuals navigating stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, self-esteem concerns, emotional overwhelm, and patterns that may leave them feeling stuck or disconnected from themselves. Together, we focus on creating meaningful and sustainable change while also making space for reflection, healing, and personal growth.

Hi, I’m Sasheen, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a unique background in both mental health and nursing. Since 2022, I’ve worked with individuals and families navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, life transitions, and complex stressors. I believe therapy should feel supportive, collaborative, and tailored to you — not one-size-fits-all.

I earned my Master of Social Work with a concentration in Mental Health and Substance Misuse from University of Texas at Arlington, and I’ve also been a Licensed Vocational Nurse since 2012. With over a decade of healthcare experience, I bring a holistic perspective to therapy — understanding both the emotional and physical aspects of well-being.

When surviving isn't enough anymore.

Life can get complicated, painful, and downright exhausting. Sometimes the things you've survived become the very things keeping you stuck. You may be functioning, showing up for everyone else, and doing what needs to be done, but somewhere along the way, you've lost sight of yourself.

I'm Sandy Crisp, a Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor, Certified Rehabilitation Counselor, and nationally certified trauma specialist. I bring more than 20 years of professional experience helping people navigate trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, addiction, chronic illness, disability, grief, and major life changes.

I work with people who are tired of feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves. Whether you're struggling with something that happened years ago or trying to make sense of what's happening right now, we'll work on understanding the patterns, emotions, and experiences affecting your life.

You don't need to have a diagnosis or know exactly what's wrong. We can figure that out together.

Hi, I'm Jack. I'm a licensed clinical social worker with eight years of experience helping adults and adolescents in Texas navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, and substance use.

I would love to speak with you and help you figure this all out!
