I love to be the non-judgmental, curious, and client-centered person that is there to lift you up and make sense of how things are going in your life. Seeing lives change and people fall in love with themselves and their life again is my absolute favorite thing. We all need a helping hand at times. Don't hesitate to reach out and make your life what you want it to be.

My name is Ms. Cherica Allen, but you can call me “Cher.” I am a licensed professional therapist and licensed family therapist associate in the State of Texas. I have over 15 years of experience in working with adolescents, relationship issues, family conflict, depression/anxiety disorders, traumatic experiences, and substance use disorders. The best therapeutic approach is the relationship that I have with you, there are many modalities, but I believe that you have the “tools” necessary to transform your “struggles into triumphs.” My therapeutic approach is uniquely tailored to your needs.

You're tired, frustrated and just want peace at home! What works for one of your children doesn't work for the other and that's frustrating. Wish your teen girl came with an instruction manual? Your teen seems lonely, withdrawn, struggling with social issues, or can't control their anger and you feel hopeless because you don't know what to do to help. As parents we want our children to be healthy and happy yet sometimes we can't fix the situation for them and that makes us feel a failure as a parent.

My goal is to help my clients find health and healing through introspection and understanding of their history and making active change in their lives.

I offer counseling services and professional supervision for individuals in Tyler, TX and surrounding areas. I offer services both in person and via telehealth. For more information about me and my practice go to my website rosecitycounselingetx.com

Sometimes life can become stressful and challenging. Occasionally, people make choices to try to correct their problems, when in turn, it can make their issues more difficult. Whether these issues stem from a unhealthy marriage/relationship, career/job unhappiness, family problems, or just feeling "stuck", there are answers. My job is to help clients learn more effective methods of dealing with these stressors, assist clients to see the pattern that has been created, and guide them in a different direction. I see clients from age 12-elderly. I take most insurance. Call for an appointment today at (903) 939-2287.

Everyone goes through trying times at some point in life. There is no single person in life that has never experienced obstacles, trials, and difficulties in their life journey. Some are small and some are big. During these experiences we often feel hopeless, lost, scared, frustrated or worried. You may even feel alone and believe there is no one who understands.

I like to define trauma as "a natural response to an event that has overwhelmed a person's capacity to cope". An individual's capacity varies considerably, making the nature of trauma very personal and often hard to spot. Fortunately though, the underlying mechanism of the condition is fairly universal, affecting people similarly, which is what makes it identifiable and treatable. It's clear that a war veteran, a 4th grade student, and a career politician have very different hardships in their lives, but the experience of a traumatic event remains the same for all of them - their respective abilities to cope have been overwhelmed.

There are so many reasons people seek out a therapists. Whatever your reason is and no matter how many times you may have tried to resolve it on your own, I hope you know how strong you are for not giving up! Resilience can be a strength but it doesn't have to be your only armor in your battles. Counseling can provide you more options. A great thing about counseling - it's for everyone because we all have needs and we could all use some support and/or help from time to time!

What's up! I'm Troy Thomason and I'm one of the top providers of mental health counseling for veterans in east TX, though I also work with just about every community out there. I've had success working with nearly every type of person, with mild diagnoses all the way to severe clinical diagnoses. Each person is unique, so the support I provide is specifically tailored to each individual. Some clients just need someone to talk to, while others would really benefit from learning psychological life hacks or need better coping skills. Whatever your problem is, I'll do what I can to help!

I am so happy that you're taking some time to explore psychotherapy. I offer online and in person sessions. Deciding to start therapy can be hard. But, continuing to struggle with the challenges, a life that hasn't quite gone the way it should, and hurts in life is so much harder. Together we will work to make sense of the emotional, spiritual and physical struggles that are going on.

There is wisdom in seeking biblical guidance in order to sort through and resolve life's challenges. At times, we place our trust in others to meet our needs or in our own ability to control our circumstances, only to find them insufficient. Yet meaningful change is a work of God through Christ as we submit our lives to him. God has provided believers a Helper, the Holy Spirit, who empowers, comforts, and guides us through each step of the way. Ultimately, God is interested in changing our hearts, for out of the heart flows all the issues of life.

I and a licensed professional counselor in Texas and I have worked for about 48 years with those struggling with trauma, anxiety and /or depression. In today's hectic world, many people struggle to cope with those symptoms and they can at times be overwhelming. There is help and hope!
