Therapists for Teens in Highland Village, TX

Adolescence and young adulthood is a time of great transition both mentally and physically. At NextGen Counseling, support is provided for teens and adults to help navigate the seemingly overwhelming emotions they are experiencing from the world around them. In a society where teens and adults are bombarded with contradictory messages on how they should act, think, and feel, therapy provides a "safe zone" for them to voice their concerns and be understood.

I am dedicated to providing support to individuals, couples, and adolescents on their journey towards improved mental and emotional well-being. My approach to therapy is grounded in a family systems perspective, which means I understand the connections between personal relationships, behavioral patterns, and life choices. I believe in the power of identifying and addressing the systemic factors that influence our lives and the relationships we navigate.

I CAN DO THIS! These four words seem easy to say but can be difficult for many to believe. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, my approach to counseling places you in the driver's seat of your life, giving you the tools necessary for success. Whether a child, teen or adult, we all need to feel capable and courageous. I believe the flaws in how we view ourselves and the world around us can be deconstructed through the evaluation and elimination of false thinking. As your advocate and ally, together WE CAN DO THIS!

Hi, I am Thomas. I specialize in Christian counseling while working with preteens, adolescents, and young adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, and other mental health issues. I believe that true healing comes from the entire family, and therefore I work not just with your adolescent or preteen but with the entire family who may be having difficulty interacting and need help finding the healing they deserve. I received my master’s in professional counseling from Liberty University and have experience working with people of all ages who are having a difficult time and need some trusted help.

I help people who have experienced a loss. Maybe at first your friends and family were all there for you but now it feels like they have moved on and you haven’t. You don’t want to burden your loved ones with these heavy feelings but you just can’t seem to get past feeling like the loss just happened. You may also be still having flashbacks or nightmares about what happened. These feelings are overwhelming and you feel like if you stop feeling them it would be a betrayal to the person you lost. These emotions and thoughts are common and I can help. Not “get over it” or “move on” but to move through this difficult time.

Along our journey in life every choice we make has a ripple effect to it, and the decision to seek out counseling is no different.

I am a licensed clinician who has experience working with trauma, anxiety, depression, stress, OCD, and bipolar. I believe that from our birth we begin building an image of who we are, how relationships should function, and how the world works around us. For many of us, adverse experiences in life can lead to difficulty managing stress or daily functioning as we get older. We may need help processing our lived experiences and understanding how they have effected our decision making and the struggles we face today. I believe that, by focusing on the present and applying the past, we can discover both our goals and our strengths.
