I can show you how to walk through grief, pain, depression with grace, integrity, humility and be a better person for embracing change. I became a therapist because: I have always been fascinated by others and their thinking and behaviors. The ability to impact change within personal lives is a privilege. Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is: Teletherapy allows you to be in the comfort of your own home and offers flexibility in scheduling. When I’m not at work, I like to: Exercise (training for a full marathon), cooking, taking "Day Trips" and hanging out with friends, family and pets and creative outlets (writing, podcasts, community projects).

Andrea Mitchell
Hi, I’m Andie. I believe there is a powerful connection between what we believe about ourselves and how we respond to life’s challenges. My role is to create a safe, collaborative space where you can explore your story and develop practical tools for change. I focus on helping you build your sense of self so you can more easily identify what works best for you and communicate those needs effectively. I know firsthand how early experiences shape our relationships and self-worth. Growing up in an alcoholic home taught me both the cost of unmet needs and the healing power of support. Today, my passion is helping others move from surviving to thriving. I work with adults facing depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, addiction, parenting challenges, and the lingering effects of childhood trauma. My style is conversational, interactive, and tailored to each client. Whoever you choose to work with, keep reaching for the version of yourself you deserve—healing is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone. Warm regards, Andie

Find a therapist near you in Impact, Texas
Finding a therapist near you in Impact, Texas starts with matching to a licensed professional who fits your needs, schedule, and goals. Texas is home to people with diverse mental health needs across urban, suburban, and rural communities, which can make it challenging to find care. BetterHelp connects you with a licensed therapist through tailored matching, so you can begin care from home or wherever works for you.
The network includes over 30,000 licensed therapists globally, and over 4 million people have used BetterHelp to find support through online therapy. During matching, 93% of user preferences are met, which helps you connect with a therapist suited to what you are looking for. Whether you are searching for help with anxiety, trauma, affordable or insurance covered therapy, weekend or flexible scheduling, or virtual sessions, you can find a therapist and get started when you are ready.
Why work with a licensed therapist near you?
Working with a licensed therapist near you gives you access to professional mental health support from someone trained to help you understand and manage what you are going through. A licensed therapist can offer evidence-based approaches, a steady space to talk, and guidance tailored to your situation. In Texas, online therapy can make that care more accessible, since sessions happen from home or wherever you are, without the need to travel to an office. This can help if your schedule is full, if travel is difficult, or if you simply prefer a more discreet setting. You can learn more about what a therapist does on the therapist role page.
Online therapy can be especially helpful for people living across Texas, where access to in-person mental health care may vary by location.
What concerns can therapists help with?
Therapists can help with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety and stress, depression, trauma and PTSD, self-esteem and identity, people-pleasing and fear of rejection, insomnia and racing thoughts, workplace stress and burnout, substance use, parenting and co-parenting stress, grief and loss, and relationship and family challenges. Therapists on BetterHelp may draw on approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), depending on your needs and goals. You can explore support for specific concerns on pages such as generalized anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, and eating disorders.

In-person therapy takes place at an office and may involve travel and set appointment windows.
