SOME WEEKEND AND EVENING AVAILABILITY.
Hello, and thank you so much for reaching out. I am a Texas Licensed Professional Counselor and have practiced mental health counseling for 6 years with a Master of Arts degree in Counseling. I specialize in helping those with anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, and help learning self-care methods. People tend to see me as direct, compassionate, and insightful. Please reach out for any questions or information. I look forward to serving you. :)
I believe healing and growth happen best when people feel safe, accepted, and genuinely cared for. I love working with children, teens, and families, and I strive to create a warm, supportive space where clients can feel comfortable being themselves.
For children, I have advanced training in Child-Centered Play Therapy, which allows them to express feelings, work through challenges, and build confidence through the natural language of play. Often, children communicate much more through play than they can with words, and I enjoy helping them feel understood and supported in ways that fit their developmental needs.
Hi, I’m Shakira, a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with individuals and romantic partners dealing with anxiety, relationship struggles, and the impact of past trauma. I use practical tools mixed with deeper healing approaches to help you feel more at ease and confident in yourself. Therapy with me is about having a safe space where you don’t have to carry it all alone.
Therapy should be a place where you can talk honestly about the things that are difficult to say out loud without being judged or reduced to a diagnosis—or to the hardest chapter of your life.
I work with adults and couples experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, suicidal thoughts, sexual trauma, intimacy and sexual-health concerns, grief, life transitions, military and veteran concerns, first-responder stress, and relational distress. Relational distress can include communication breakdown, recurring conflict, loss of trust, emotional distance, intimacy concerns, separation or divorce-related stress, changes within a family, parenting-related strain, or simply reaching a point where you are unsure how to move forward.
My role in therapy is to help you understand what is happening, identify what you want to change, strengthen your ability to respond differently, and work toward healthier functioning and relationships. My clinical style is direct, collaborative, trauma-informed, practical, and shame-free.
I am independently licensed for clinical social-work practice in Washington, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, and Florida; EMDR-trained; a Certified Psychosexual Assessment Specialist (CPAS); a Board-Certified Forensic Mental Health Evaluator (CFMHE); a Board-Certified Forensic Psychometrist (CFP); and a U.S. Army veteran.
My broader professional practice includes forensic mental-health evaluation and consultation. Those services are separate from psychotherapy. Once I am retained as your treating therapist and a clinical treatment relationship has been established, I cannot also serve as your forensic evaluator, expert witness, or child-custody evaluator in the same matter. Therapy is treatment-focused and is intended to support your clinical needs—not to generate an independent forensic opinion for litigation.
I believe every person is created in the image of God and carries a dignity that circumstances cannot erase. Life can change around us quickly. Roles end. Relationships shift. Children leave. Careers come to a close. We lose people we love, and sometimes we lose versions of ourselves we thought would always be there. Yet even in these moments, we are still becoming.
Much of my work is with adults navigating the later chapters of life—retirement, the empty nest, caregiving, changing relationships, and the question that sometimes quietly follows: Who am I now? I also work with couples trying to find their way back to one another and with individuals healing from addiction or the aftermath of an unhealthy relationship.
I believe growth remains possible at every age. We may not get to choose everything that happens to us, but we can examine how we will meet what has happened and what kind of life we want to create from here.
Clients often tell me that I listen closely, including to what is not being said. I believe every person brings a story that deserves to be understood before it is interpreted. My work begins there—with curiosity, careful attention, and respect for the life you have lived and the life you still have ahead of you.
I’m a trauma‐focused therapist who helps clients heal in a safe, gentle, and effective way. My approach goes beyond talk therapy to include experiential methods that support deep nervous‐system healing while you remain fully in control. I draw from psychodynamic, somatic, and humanistic traditions to help you reconnect with yourself and move forward with confidence
I'm Brook Myers, LCMHC/LPC, and I own and operate Umberger Wellness Solutions, a telehealth practice serving clients in North Carolina and Texas. My approach to therapy is built around a simple belief: meaningful change happens when you feel genuinely supported, understood, and appropriately challenged—not when someone simply listens and sends you on your way. I work with children ages 6+, teens, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, OCD, PTSD, trauma, grief, ADD/ADHD, learning challenges, relationship concerns, and major life transitions. Before moving into clinical mental health counseling, I spent eight years working in education and school counseling, which continues to shape my work with children, adolescents, young adults, and families. Therapy with me isn't one-size-fits-all. I adapt my approach to the person in front of me because what works for one client may not work for another. I believe you're the expert on your own life, while my role is to help you recognize patterns, develop practical skills, work through difficult experiences, and sometimes challenge you to look at things differently. The goal is for therapy to feel like something we're doing together—not something being done to you.
I believe meaningful therapy begins with feeling genuinely seen, heard, and understood. My approach is Humanistic and Existential, grounded in empathy, authenticity, and respect for your unique story. While my credentials reflect my dedication to the field, my greatest strength is the genuine care and seasoned clinical experience I bring to each person I serve.
I am a Doctor of Psychology with an Ed.D. in Counseling Psychology from Argosy University, a Texas Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), and a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC), with more than 15 years of experience in mental health and education. My academic journey began at Virginia State University, a proud HBCU, where I earned a B.S. in Psychology with minors in English and Modern Dance. I later earned an M.A. in School Counseling, with a focus on Psychology and Marriage & Family Therapy, from Phillips Graduate Institute (now Phillips Graduate University).
My clinical and professional experience spans diverse settings and communities. I have worked in every jail in Los Angeles County and served for several years as a Consulting Psychologist at one of Philadelphia’s largest rehabilitation hospitals. As a native New Jerseyan who has spent much of my adult life in Los Angeles, my work as an educator and professor in multiple states, along with decades as a professional dancer and choreographer, has shaped a deeply nuanced understanding of creativity, self-expression, and the mind-body connection.
As a professor, I explore the psychological impact of media on women’s self-esteem, helping clients navigate comparison, societal expectations, and the pressures of modern life.
Therapy with me is collaborative. I will meet you where you are, listen deeply, and help you develop greater self-understanding, resilience, and a life that feels more authentic, purposeful, and your own.
Hi, I'm Brittany — a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with seven years of experience helping adults navigate some of life's hardest chapters. I believe every person deserves care that's as unique as they are. I work with adults who are struggling with anxiety, stress, unresolved trauma, depression, grief, low self-esteem, and relationship or family conflict. My approach draws on evidence-based tools — including DBT, mindfulness, and trauma-focused techniques — woven together with a genuine belief in your capacity to grow. I hold a Master's degree in Rehabilitation & Mental Health Counseling from the University of South Florida and went on to practice therapy in three different states where I’ve worked with people from many different walks of life and cultural backgrounds. I offer telehealth sessions, so you can access quality care from wherever you feel most comfortable. Let me help you make the changes that you want to see!

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 Texas
Searching for therapists in Texas starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. Across a state as large and varied as Texas, therapy needs and available therapists can differ across urban, suburban, and rural areas. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or major life changes. Review each therapist’s listed specialties, approach, and experience to see whether their background matches your needs. Some therapists may use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, while others may focus on specific populations or concerns.
Location and format also matter when comparing Texas therapists. In larger areas like Houston, Dallas, and Austin, you may have many choices, while other parts of the state may have fewer local options. Some people prefer meeting in person, while others choose virtual sessions for scheduling flexibility or easier access from home. As you narrow your search, look at appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you understand how they describe their style, what sessions may feel like, and whether their communication approach fits your preferences.
The cost of therapy in Texas can vary, and using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for Texas therapists who match your preferences, accept your insurance, and are ready to take new patients. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans, and you can enter your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. From there, you can compare therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
