Hi, I’m Katerine Lickteig, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with over 15 years of experience. I hold a Master’s degree from Prairie View University and specialize in helping individuals of all ages overcome challenges and achieve their full potential. As a certified EMDR therapist, I have successfully worked with clients to heal from past trauma.
Hi, I'm Jael. I support clients working through anxiety, stress, life transitions, and personal growth, as well as family issues, identity, ADHD, and anger management. I am passionate about helping people feel heard, supported, and empowered. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be yourself and move toward meaningful change at a pace that feels right for you.
I have been practicing for over 15 years with compassion/empathy guiding my efforts. I have extensive experience with 9 populations: Eating Disorders, Anxiety/Depression, Combat Vets, Geriatrics, Sex Offenders, Substance Use Disorder, Co-Occurring Disorders, Clinic environment, Women's issues.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker helping individuals and couples navigate anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm. My approach is warm, collaborative, and evidence-based, creating a supportive space where you can heal, grow, and feel emotionally grounded again.
As a licensed professional counselor, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step! I enjoy working with individuals 15-50 years of age who want to take control of their lives and are struggling with issues such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem, or adjusting to new changes.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to supporting children and adolescents as they navigate depression, anxiety, and life’s challenges. With a background in both outpatient and inpatient care. I bring a compassionate, clinically grounded understanding of the challenges young people face today. I strive to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to build healthier coping skills and move forward with confidence.
My clients are the “overthinkers” in the world...with big feelings that are hard to explain. They feel misunderstood, lonely and isolated while striving to please others at the expense of themselves. They’re exhausted, overworked, and over-stressed, feeling like they’re never enough. They have a vision for life, but aren’t sure how to bring it together, especially after a life-changing event. They're also eager for change.
Does this sound like you? If so, I warmly welcome you to my practice.
I’ve been where you are. As someone in long-term recovery, I understand the challenges firsthand and bring both empathy and 11 years of professional counseling experience to support you in finding your own path and developing your strengths. I work with adolescents, people struggling with substance use, and those facing anxiety, depression, grief, or trauma.
I specialize in working with individuals in recovery and LGBTQ+ clients, helping you build resilience, explore your goals, and discover practical strategies that fit your life.
My approach is collaborative and empowering—you set the pace, and I walk alongside you with understanding, guidance, and support as you create meaningful change and uncover the strengths you already have within.
As a seasoned practitioner (since 2006) with a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology, I have dedicated my career to mastering a diverse range of therapeutic modalities to better serve my clients.
My clinical practice is grounded in extensive training across several specialized frameworks, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Additionally, I incorporate Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Interpersonal Psychotherapy, and Hypnotherapy into my work, allowing for a highly tailored and comprehensive approach to psychological wellness.

Find the right therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Tyler
Searching for therapists in Tyler starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist may fit your needs. People often look for therapy in Tyler, TX for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or major life changes. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties that match your goals. You may also want to review approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, trauma-informed care, couples therapy, or faith-informed counseling when those preferences matter to you.
In a smaller city like Tyler, the number of local in-person appointments may vary by schedule, specialty, and location. Virtual therapy can expand your options across Texas while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in the state. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading therapist bios can help you understand communication style, areas of focus, and what to expect before you book.
Therapy in Tyler can be a significant expense without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see an estimated cost before booking. You can compare therapists in Tyler, review profiles, choose in-person or virtual care, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
