About me

Feeling stuck, anxious, or burned out? You’re not broken—you’re on a quest. Whether you're navigating trauma, chronic pain, performance blocks, or the weight of caregiving, I offer therapy that helps you reconnect with your inner strength and direction. I believe healing starts with being seen and understood—not pathologized. Together, we’ll make sense of your story, uncover what’s holding you back, and build toward clarity and momentum.
I’m Chad Starrak, LCSW and founder of Questline Counseling in Kyle, TX. I work with teens, adults, creatives, and caregivers using a trauma-informed, neuroscience-backed approach. My sessions weave together EMDR, CBT, Narrative Therapy, IFS, and parts work—offering a structured yet compassionate space to address root causes, not just symptoms.
