Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Weatherford, TX

I have had the privilege of working with individuals who deal with substance abuse and co-occurring issues for 4+ years. I also have experience treating individuals with depression, anxiety, OCD, body image issues, adjustment disorders, grief, and trauma . I received my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2019. I received my EMDR training in 2020 and integrate this into my counseling as needed.

I am a holistic, trauma-informed psychotherapist, traditional medicine apprentice, and the founder of The Collab. Grounded in values of honesty, deep respect, and genuine connection, my practice views mental health through a multi-dimensional lens—honoring the profound relationship between mind, body, spirit, and community. My mission is to provide culturally responsive, decolonial care that moves away from rigid, one-size-fits-all frameworks and instead centers collective healing, generational resilience, and the unique cultural contexts of every individual I serve.

I hold a Master of Education in Guidance and Counseling from the University of Texas at El Paso. Over my career, I have specialized in serving children, adolescents, adults, and families navigating complex trauma, life transitions, grief, and anxiety. I create an authentic, inclusive space where clients of all backgrounds can safely untangle complex narratives, honor their unique heritage, and discover their innate capacity for self-healing.

My name is Melanie Hunter and I am a licensed professional counselor with over 20 years of experience as a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) practitioner. I hold a Master of Arts degree in Professional Counseling with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy from Texas State University. I began my career working with adolescents through a non-profit organization and then later, adults in employment settings. My work providing telehealth counseling with adults began in 2020.

You say yes when you mean no. You apologize for things that aren’t your fault. You replay conversations afterward, looking for the moment you were too much, not enough, or slightly wrong. You feel responsible for everyone else’s happiness, even when it costs you your own. Maybe it shows up as perfectionism, imposter syndrome, or never quite trusting that you’ve done enough. You’re exhausted, but no one sees the pressure you carry, the guilt you feel when you put your needs first, or how hard it’s become to actually rest. You tell yourself you’re overreacting or being dramatic. You’re not.

Michael M. Zavala, DNP, APRN, FNP-C, PMHNP-BC is a Texas and New Mexico based Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner focused on holistic integrative psychiatry.

I help adults experiencing obesity, anxiety, depression, trauma/PTSD, and burnout/moral injury rediscover their sense of excitement and engagement with work, loved ones, and life by offering a specialized approach for those motivated to uncover the root cause of their symptoms, with medication as an option, NOT the only option.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with 11 years of experience, dedicated to helping individuals find balance, clarity, and confidence in their lives. I primarily work with women who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, weighed down by depression, or stuck in cycles that no longer serve them—whether in relationships, career, or how they view themselves. Many of my clients are navigating the emotional impact of life transitions like menopause, body changes, and weight management, often in silence and without support.

As a trilingual Licensed Professional Counselor (Portuguese, Spanish, English), I offer a compassionate and culturally sensitive space. I understand how culture, language, and generational expectations can shape the way we experience mental health, body image, and self-worth.

I became a therapist to be safe space for people who didn't feel like they had one. I earned my Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy so I could be equipped to help couples navigate their struggles and be that safe space for anyone who needed it. No one should feel like they have to do life alone.
