Clinical Supervision and Licensed Supervisors Therapists in Georgetown, TX

Hi. My name is Robert and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC-S). I earned my Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology from Texas A&M International University in 1999 and a Master of Arts degree in Community Counseling from Texas State University in 2013. Since 1999, I have been working with many different populations and all ages in the mental health field, honing my skills as a clinician. It can be difficult to ask for support sometimes. I get that and strive to limit barriers to accessing therapy. Call me and let's chat.

The hardest step sometime can be to reach out and actually ask for help. By working together, I can be part of your support team to help you create actions and thoughts to be your best self. By focusing on your good habits and strengths, I can help you to take the next steps to build the steps you need to create the life you want for you, your child, your family or your marriage. I also provide supervision for counselors working on their LPC.

Should you ever encounter a therapist that tells you they have the answers for you . . . Run Away!!! Therapy is a deeply personal process that is not about fixing an issue, but rather creating a safe place for growth, insight, and healing. I will never claim to have answers or magical solutions to another's unique story or experience. What I can offer is years of experience with creating safety and warmth for those who have difficulty finding those environments. I have a genuine affection, curiosity, and appreciation for the rich and inspiring life stories that clients share with me.

I have been working with adolescents and parents in the school system for over 19 years as a school counselor, and have held my LPC license for over 14 years. I am an LPC supervisor. I enjoy working with adolescents, helping them to work through their issues, ranging from underachieving to relationship conflict (and everything in between). I also enjoy working with adults, helping them to understand their roles as parents so that they are better able to help support their children in a positive, healthy manner. In addition to parenting, I also provide marriage and family counseling.

I specialize in working with people who are concerned about their sex life and/or relationships. I've helped many clients dealing with a difficult breakup or struggling to stay together find hope and strength in a time of pain. If you feel your relationship is stuck in a rut or perhaps you'd like to find and keep a great partner, I can help. A reluctant partner doesn't have to be a barrier to change. I am happy to work with all who want to improve their quality of life and foster fulfilling relationships. When reaching out, please specify if you are private pay or plan to use insurance and if so, which one!

As a counselor I create a warm and supportive environment in which my clients can move from feeling stuck, isolated, and conflicted in some area of life to feeling more connected, motivated and successful. I specialize in working with adolescents, adults and couples who are experiencing relationship issues, grief and loss, depression, anxiety and self-esteem issues. I believe in defining goals with my clients, exploring new ways of thinking about yourself and others and learning better coping strategies. My goal is to help my clients heal from past wounds and achieve their own definition of success.

My passion as a therapist is to encourage, empower and challenge my clients: I encourage my clients to accept and embrace their unique set of strengths and weaknesses. From this framework, we are able to nurture our strengths, accommodate our challenges and concretely strengthen areas of need. It is a privilege to be entrusted with the care of others

Have you felt stuck in patterns of stress, trauma and burnout? Or are you going through a major change in your life? The lovely and brave folks I see tend to come in for support in navigating major life change with intention and purpose. You may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, angry and disconnected from others as you are facing this. And you don't have to do it alone. We can work together to understand what you have experienced in your story so far. We can explore patterns you have learned in a compassionate and nonjudgmental way. Then, together, we can discover new ways for you to create the life you want moving forward.

Everyone is different and need to get some guidance, support and set new goals. I am here to provide support and encouragement from an non-judgemental position. I am here the help build meaningful social connections. When human beings experience trauma or severe life stressors, it is not uncommon for their lives to unravel. My great passion is bringing healing to people who have been through a trauma.

My ideal client is committed to the process and work that is required in counseling. They are transparent, motivated, and willing to accept different points of view. A heart change is required for true peace.

It takes a great deal of courage to reach out and ask for help. Sometimes our life path is different than expected. You may be uncertain of your future, feel lost, or lack hope. Maybe you are looking for closure or finding a new way to see life. You may be experiencing challenges at home, in relationships, or at work. I am here to work with you to set and achieve personal goals and nurture positive changes in your life. I provide counseling to individuals to promote healing and personal growth.

I am passionate about helping those struggling with trauma and grief across the lifespan, including perinatal loss (whether from infertility/miscarriage/infant loss), and postpartum difficulties. Our life journey is often filled with many unexpected twists and turns, with some surpassing our natural abilities to cope well. Our American culture openly avoids acknowledging the profound depth of our human experiences. Tolerance for trauma and grief is time-limited and short-lived, because "this happens all the time". But what if we can learn to acknowledge the pain without shame, guilt, or judgement?

The highly sensitive person (HSP) faces unique problems. Even if (like many) you have a sense you were born to help others, their emotions wear you out, depleting your energy. Most of your emotional life may be coping with others' unresolved emotions you've been carrying around, which do little but drain you. Seeking to rid yourself of those emotions, you have developed any of a range of emotional or psychological problems, including anxiety, depression, a personality disorder, or compulsive emotional numbing behavior (like perfectionism, people pleasing, overeating, substance use, or compulsive sexual behavior).

Our therapists at Georgetown Counseling and Wellness will partner with you to help you reach your optimal mental health and relationship goals. Our clients often struggle with communicating with partners, parents or children. We help our clients learn new skills and tools to feel more confident in their relationships. We also help our clients resolve past trauma, learn to cope with anxiety and depression and process grief and loss. We help our clients move from feeling stuck and uncertain in a relationship, career or difficult life situation to feeling a new sense of purpose, well-being, confidence and clarity.

Personal experiences can mold and transform us every bit of the way in our life journey. Here at M.P.C. we understand that many life experiences will enhance us, however, there are also challenging experiences that could trigger and mobilize a vicious cycle in our behaviors and attitudes towards life and others. At the end of the day, everyone deserves an opportunity to be wholesome and be able to breathe in their own skin. As therapists, our goal is to work towards partnering with you in your journey in learning healthy ways to cope, healing, self love, self actualization and wellbeing.
