I have immense passion for helping people navigate through life's hardships. Everyone struggles in one way or another and sometimes we just need a little guidance and support. I am here for you. Engaging in therapy is a courageous, commendable task and I have enormous respect for the individuals I work with. My goal is to form a solid base of trust and a collaborative relationship with each person. My approach to counseling is based upon person-centered, solution-focused, and cognitive-behavioral theoretical approaches. I guide clients through the explorations of solutions already present within their lives in order to solve current challenges. I work with clients to explore how certain thoughts can produce negative or painful feelings and maladaptive behaviors. My overall approach is holistic in nature, with emphasis on clients’ feelings, behaviors, thoughts, and beliefs. I am committed to assisting each individual to build on their existing strengths to live their best possible life. My counseling style is warm, accepting, challenging and empowering. I provide therapy to individuals concerned with low mood/depression, anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, relationship issues, adjustment issues, intimacy concerns, disordered eating, body image, life transitions and life satisfaction. I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Texas with over four years of experience. I have worked in a variety of settings, including a residential, IOP and PHP treatment facility for eating disorders, school-based program, outpatient clinic and private practice. I enjoy awakening awareness and insight, encouraging action, fostering healing and cultivating joy in the lives of others. I hope to have the privilege of working with you to this end!

“Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen.” - - Brene’ Brown Hello there!! You have made a courageous step towards positive change and growth!! I sincerely believe that all beings have an innate need for connection. A connection not only to others but to yourself is necessary for optimal living. The therapeutic relationship is a space where exploration and curiosity can support your journey of reconnecting with self and others. As a counselor, I believe that every person is unique and worthy of unconditional acceptance. Providing support towards a client’s sense of wholeness is my goal. Authenticity and trust can prove to be a caveat in aiding you as you increase self-awareness, process feelings, identify and practice new approaches to existing problems or concerns, gain insight and to find healing and empowerment. You will find me to be passionate about helping people work through barriers to create the relationships and lives that they desire and to develop a sense of personal strength and self-acceptance. I celebrate and welcome the diversity of all clients and strive to create an affirming, inclusive and non-judgmental space in which you can explore your individual needs and therapeutic goals. I am KaShunda (Shun) Davis, a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas. I've been a mental health therapist for 6 years serving in community counseling centers and private counseling serving teens, adults, and couples. Examples of concerns/issues that I’ve supported clients through include anxiety & stress management, depression, self-esteem & self-acceptance, coping skills; sexuality, gender identity and LGBTQIA+ concerns; relationship issues and career transitions My therapeutic style is integrative in nature and provides an emotionally safe space that supports insight, self-exploration, concerns, emotions and achieve healthy goals. Our work together will involve exploring the connections between your thoughts, emotions and behaviors; open dialogue, focusing on your strengths and values, integrating mindfulness techniques and implementing effective coping skills and practices both during and in between sessions that can better equip you to handle life’s challenges as they arise.

Hi, I'm Patrick. I'm the father of two, so when I'm not counseling I'm either spending time with my kids or I'm engaging in one of several hobbies that provide enjoyment or help me cope with stress. Besides being a book and movie nerd, I like to write essays, stories and poetry, play guitar, train for 5K runs and occasionally travel or go camping. I've practiced counseling as a therapist, as an educator and as a crisis specialist. Although my degree is from the University of North Texas, I've learned much of my current set of skills from the experience of counseling clients and through specific training and workshops aimed at improving myself professionally. As a therapist, I tend to be very relaxed, coming alongside clients to help them at situations that feel like dead ends or like they are in a fog with no clear direction in sight. With people, one size usually does not fit all, so I like to have a variety of techniques available to assist them. Sometimes a path can be made clear simply by sorting through thoughts with someone, but often situatons are more complex with more variables in play, such as with addiction, feelings of uncontrollable anger, trauma that seems to overwhelm or something that feels more physical like sexual dysfunction. My starting point is usually listening to try to wrap my mind around a client's story and then I work alongside my client to see if our combined efforts and experience can help them go forward. I bring to the table training in anxiety and depression, bipolar disorder, anger management, communication, boundaries, sexual issues, spiritual abuse, grief and consciousness growth.

Hello, and thanks for visiting my profile! My top specialties as a clinician include PTSD and Trauma, Addiction (both chemical and behavioral), along with Depression and other mood disorders. My therapeutic approaches involve pulling from many counseling techniques to find an approach that best fits the individual client. Some of those techniques include Cognitive Behavioral, Person Centered, Reality, and Narrative type therapies. I use an informed consent model, as knowledge equals empowerment. A little about me - Counseling was something I had always wanted to do, but I didn't pursue it until later in life. Years ago, I lost a spouse to suicide, and the grief was consuming. Once I was able to see more clearly, I enrolled in a Master of Counseling program in hopes of being able to ease the grief of others in similar situations. I did get my degree and My LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) license, and also accumulated significant life experience which, in short, has helped me become the therapist I want to be. For example, I am a recovering addict, going on fourteen years' clean time, and am active in twelve step recovery. Also, I am a proud member of the LGBTQIA community. Before making my decision to become a remote-based therapist, I accumulated significant on-site work experience. Some of that includes working with domestic violence survivors, addiction (men's and women's, both out patient and residential), plus children's residential, and crisis stabilization. I look forward to working with you!

When we face emotional distress, it is common for us to feel hopeless and "stuck". My passion is helping people break free from emotional anguish -- such as depression, anxiety, and past trauma -- to find peace, wellness, and the ability to move forward in life. In a nonjudgmental environment, I help my clients develop effective coping skills and healthy perceptions of themselves. In addition to three years in private practice, my background includes 10 years working with children, teens, and their families as a School Counselor. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Positive Psychology, and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) for trauma.
