Therapy Session in Texas

Dianne Dabney, NCC, M.A., Th.D., LPC I am passionate about helping people become the best version of themselves. With a strong foundation in practical therapeutic approaches and a deep commitment to compassionate care, I bring experience and insight to every session. I specialize in working with children, young adults, older adults, and couples navigating relationship challenges. My background includes a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health, National Certified Counselor (NCC) certification, and a Doctorate in Theology. My approach to therapy is rooted in creating a safe, calming environment where clients feel comfortable sharing their story. I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to provide effective tools that empower individuals to manage life’s challenges. Clients can expect to feel heard, supported, and equipped with actionable insights. My goal is for every person I work with to leave feeling hopeful, encouraged, and confident in their journey toward a healthier, more fulfilling life.

Hi, I’m Laura, a Licensed Professional Counselor-Associate! I practice compassionate and nonjudgmental therapy, providing a safe and supportive space for kids, teens, and adults to explore their experiences and work toward healing.I graduated from St. Edward’s University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology and earned my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Houston. Over the past 3 years, I’ve worked with clients from diverse backgrounds, helping them navigate anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, OCD and relational conflict or bullying. I also have extensive experience working with neurodivergent individuals, helping them gain tools to better understand themselves and build meaningful skills for daily life. My goal as a therapist is to offer understanding and support as you build self-awareness, strengthen emotional resilience, and move toward a more balanced and fulfilling life. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process, and I want to meet you where you are with empathy & curiosity!

Frank has a lot of successful encounters with adolescents, young and older adults in different settings which include at home, prison, outpatient and in schools. Due to his compassionate and goal-oriented approach to therapy, his clients notice his positive regard, person-centered philosophy in the initial session.

Frank is a certified Counselor by National Board of Certified Counselors (NCC), Licensed Professional counselor (LPC) by Texas Board of Examiners of Professional Counselors, Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor by Texas Health and Human Services and Licensed Sex Offender Treatment Provider by Council of Sex Offender Treatment (CSOT) of Texas Health and Human Services. In pursuit of his clients' goals in therapy, Frank understands that there is no "one-size-fit-all" in therapy. He diversifies his approach according to the life situation of his clients. He utilizes cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), DBT, mindfulness, IFS, positive psychology, person-centered, motivational and solution focus therapy in his work with clients. Since Frank understands that everyone carries a "life-backpack" of personal history and experiences, he believes it's possible to find triggers for current situations within both the individual's past and present. Therefore, he deeply explores these aspects using psychoanalysis and CBT to find solutions to present situations. Frank believes that people are the actors in their lives' movies; therefore, he uses person-centered philosophy of positive regard in the journey toward therapeutic goals. Lastly, due to Frank's exposure to multicultural settings, he creates a culturally sensitive environment that enables his clients to freely express themselves.

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist that uses a client-centered approach to meet you where you are at and address your specific individualized needs to help you get to where you want to be. I work with individuals, couples, children, teens, and families. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is the most common therapeutic approach that I use when working with clients. However, I pride myself on being able to use an overall more "eclectic" approach with a blend of many different approaches to address individualized needs from several different angles and methods to ensure a well-rounded treatment experience with positive outcomes and increased happiness. I have a very kind and gentle, yet direct, communication style. I value having a genuinely safe and non-judgmental therapeutic environment to allow you to unapologetically be yourself so that I can truly get to know you and help you more accurately and effectively.

What don't you like about right now? What is missing in your life? What does happiness mean to you and what does that look like? Let's map out the baby steps and make it happen together!
