Biography: Welcome! My name is Bobbie Anne and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over six years of experience providing therapy and related services.

Biography: I am in my 22nd year as a psychotherapist. What to expect: Respect and Support - Most people find my straightforward approach helpful and solution-focused. It may not be for you! If you believe you are fairly certain you are "ready" then let's give it a try! Office hours: 8am - 3pm CST Timely responses Expertise - I have seen the impossible happen in person after person - 20,000 client hours! I believe people can achieve incredible things despite impossible odds because I've been there when it happens. Three questions I'm known to ask people in therapy: 1. If you had your financial life at 100% satisfaction, what would be left to do for you to be your ideal self? 2. Why? (no matter what people say, I tend to follow by asking, "why"?) 3. If when you awake in the morning, everything was changed for the better, what is the first thing you'd notice? About 60% of my practice involves work with adult survivors of sexual trauma, addictions (drugs, alcohol, sex) and couples recovering from affairs. I also offer traditional general mental health counseling for depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder, particularly post-hospitalization or adults who are noticing symptoms for the first time. Other services include pre-surgery psych evals and group therapy.

Biography: I am a Cognitive-Behavioral counselor who specializes in working with performing and non-performing creative artists, athletes and ministers. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a minor in Child Development and Family and Consumer Sciences from Baylor University in 1998. I completed a Master of Arts in Counseling from Amberton University in 2002. I was licensed in 2006 and became an LPC supervisor in 2008. I opened my private practice, At the Table Counseling, in 2009 and have been devoted to my clients full time since 2011. My counseling clients are typically those with concerns of anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and work or home-related stressors. I also operate as a mental strength strategist who coaches creatives, athletes, and ministers in building and maintaining the mental capacity to handle their platforms with excellence and to operate in their gifts for Christ. This is a specialized coaching program that is outside of my practice, but it is offered to anyone who is interested. I strongly believe in teaching my clients so, I have also written 5 books to help with several different issues. The main focus with most of my clients is the transition from their jobs to their dreams. Having made this transition myself, I understand the struggle this desire brings with it. Being unhappy in your life is not something you simply have to put up with. I want all of my clients to understand that we can work together to figure out where you want to go and map out how to get there.

Biography: I am Casey , Licensed Professional Counselor. I have been in the mental health field since 1994 and licensed since 2002. My experience ranges from working with the chronically mentally ill in public mental health, private practice, inpatient psychiatric, diagnostics/assessment, crisis intervention, anger management, and employee assistance. My primary approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and the effectiveness it has in pointing out negative thought patterns. I also love to use Solution-Focused Therapy as well. Through CBT I can help you see unconscious schemas that are leading you to do what you do, where they came from, how they developed, and ultimately how to become your own therapist reframing and moving forward on your own. I love working with all individuals but feel that I have a specific skill in understanding people who feel thrown away, bullied, and/or marginalized in society. Historically, I have always done very well with people that no one else seems to be able to help or reach. In your first session you can expect to have me ask questions of you so I can understand who you are, where you come from, what has shaped your beliefs and perceptions, and to ultimately plot a course for something better. Most people are nervous and do not know what to expect so what I will say is we will just talk. While I do happen to be licensed, I am human, equal, and not above anyone. I will make telephonic/televideo therapy every bit as personal as face to face. I am also very analytical and able to see/put together patterns, diagnoses, and have an excellent ability to "turn on the windshield wipers in the rain" for my clients. As a result of surviving my own trauma as well as being a survivor of a disaster, I realize that one event in anyone's lives can reverse the side of the desk they are sitting on. There is always that one event(s) that can put the counselor into the position of the client as well and shows our vulnerability as humans. I make it a point to come across as approachable and not superior and I am VERY responsive to my clients. . Also finally, please note: If you are covered under CVS/Aetna EAP then please choose another therapist as I am unable to accept these clients due to a conflict of interest. Also please note, due to time constraints, that I am only doing individual counseling and not couple's counseling.
