I am Andrea Ryan, a licensed professional counselor with a master's level education in the state of Texas. In addition to my professional degree, I have studied and become certified in Traumatic Stress Studies with The Trauma Center at JRI through Bessel Van der Kolk. I have worked both in a behavioral hospital with inpatient and outpatient clients, and as an independent counselor in private practice for years. If it is a part of the human experience in mental health, I have most likely addressed it. I offer you an empathic, supportive, in-the-moment, and non-judgmental style of therapy to help with depression, anxiety, stress management, traumatic experiences, mood swings, women's concerns, interpersonal relationship issues, personal or professional growth, as well as grief and loss. I have vast experience in assisting with the development of the necessary coping skills, relaxation techniques, yoga/body integration, and self-regulation techniques to positively improve your relationships at home and work. I help you utilize your strengths and develop new skills to integrate the struggles you are experiencing. I bring scientifically supported techniques to bear on your individual situation to discover ways to work through any challenge you meet. I recognize that a person is not a collection of problems to be addressed, but rather a whole, complex, and beautiful individual expression of life. Therefore, I prefer to work collaboratively with your whole self. Feel free to express yourself in a safe, confidential session with me. I look forward to walking this path with you. I see myself as a fellow traveler alongside you on your life journey. I believe that all experiences make us who we are; and that the point is the journey not the destination. As J. R. R. Tolkien noted, "Not all those who wander are lost." I am honored in your decision to allow me to assist you as you grow and develop through the challenges that prompted you to seek therapy.
Otis Mann
I have worked with populations that have substance problems and who have been incarcerated, on probation, or parole. Very familiar with the military and aerospace industries. Although, I am extremely familiar with Christianity, secular counseling is important. Solution Focused Brief Therapy is my main interest because I feel the client knows him or herself better than any counselor. In this light, I become a helper rather than a therapist. I have used Written Exposure Therapy for Complex PTSD.

I see counseling as a process in which you and I having come to understand and trust one another, work as a team to explore and define present problem situations, develop future goals for an improved life, and work in a systematic fashion toward realizing those goals.

I work with clients in a variety of formats, including individually, as couples and as families. I also conduct group therapy. I have counseled clients of varying ages and in both school and clinical settings working together toward a desired positive outcome. I have worked to improve the lives of people since 2002, first as a teacher, later as a counselor. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Louisiana and Texas.
