I live in Texas and possess an unobstructed Texas professional counseling (LPC) license. I obtained a Master’s degree in Counseling and an undergraduate degree in psychology. I have worked for a mental health facility for six years and obtained experience in crisis, psycho-social rehabilitation, received training and experience in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and received a certification of training in Cognitive Processing Therapy for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). I have worked with people of various ages and development. I have extensive use of the DSM IV and V. I have experience in working with those who have or have had substance abuse problems, and I have worked in two residential, judicial dual diagnosis centers. Dual diagnosis means these individuals not only have a substance abuse problem, but they have a diagnosable mental illness. There is continuous research and study, and I continue to search for arenas to expand and update my experience and knowledge in counseling techniques and in mental health. I have an extreme passion to see improvement, empowerment, support and progress not only in my clients but also in myself. I cannot help my client if I do not have those qualities myself. I am a believer in Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit and do not fear using Biblical principles in my counseling practice when requested. My main clinical approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), but I also adopt other techniques from other approaches such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Gestalt, Person-Centered (Rogerian), and Integrative/Holistic. I am a firm believer that every person is composed of physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual facets, and each facet has an effect on the other aspects of the person. I have counseled individuals who have received such diagnoses as schizophrenia, bipolar, major depressive disorder, borderline personality disorder, narcissistic personality disorder, anxiety adjustment disorder to name a few. My counseling style is down-to-earth, warm, and nonthreatening. However, I will set boundaries, and I can be firm regarding those boundaries. I will correct anything that enhances negativity or the stigma that seems to accompany mental illness. I also believe in treating my clients the way I want to be treated. It is my belief that everyone has the right to a more content and rewarding life. If you are brave enough to face the issues that have kept you from these goals, then I am proud that you have chosen me to stand by your side to help you reach your goals. I look forward to working with you!

Hi! My name is Corinne and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have experience working with both teens and adults in different settings. Most recently, I worked with adults in intensive outpatient care in a psychiatric hospital. I’ve helped people with a wide variety of issues, from depression and anxiety to coping with hallucinations, and everything in between. As a therapist, it is my goal to help people take control of their life, heal from past wounds, and increase their sense of well-being. I completed my Bachelor’s degree at the University of Texas at Austin, with a major in Psychology and a minor in Sociology. After that, I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at South University Austin. Like most therapists, I use different theories and techniques based on what would be most helpful for you. I also have experience recommending resources in the community that may be useful, when needed. Outside of work, I love spending time with my husband and two daughters, playing with my pets, reading, and binging sitcoms on Hulu. I hope this introduction is helpful in getting to know me a little bit, and I look forward to getting to know you as well!

I believe in treating everyone with respect, empathy, and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral therapy, choice theory, and rational-emotive therapy.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas working in private practice. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, PTSD, attachment trauma, LGBTQIA+ population, advocacy, autism, and parent-child interactive therapy. One of my passions is helping patients access their own power, finding solutions that work for the individual person or family, and helping people from a systemic and advocacy-based perspective. My therapy style is warm, kind, and humanistic. I believe that everyone is capable and powerful, and I don't believe everyone should be labeled unless it helps them find explanation or identity for wellness. My approach combines solution-focused, trauma therapy, and belief in the person and the path they choose for their treatment to take. It takes courage to seek solutions for yourself or your family and to take the first steps in a positive direction. If you are ready to rediscover your power, remember that you are capable of hard things, and choose solutions that work for you, I am ready and willing to help you, your children, or your family. I can't wait to meet you, and look forward to working together towards goals that work for you. Just remember how capable you are!
