Therapists in Livingston, TX

There are basic truths of human psychology that most people understand intuitively. We do not fully know ourselves; the things we do not know can cause suffering. There is a benefit to self-awareness. I will support you as you develop your innate capacity to be with your own life, just as it is, and assist as you develop more effective strategies for living joyfully and with compassion for yourself as well as others. As we bring together your sense of yourself in past, present and future states, feelings of organization and coherence develop. Choice is restored.

I see children ages 3 and up, as well as families. I have a passion for helping individuals of all ages who are dealing with anxiety, depression, infertility, grief, stress, trauma, life transitions, and relationship issues. I use my teaching background in public education when working with children, adolescents, and their families. In addition, I offer play therapy, family therapy, and ADHD testing.

Life can be hard and sometimes have some twists and turns that weren't planned. Maybe you just found out that having a child the way you envision is not going to happen. Or maybe you feel alone and sad with this new baby in your home, almost like you don't know who you are anymore. I understand that taking the first step to come to a therapy session can be nerve wracking and uncomfortable since you don't know me yet, but I hope that in time you can feel that this is a safe space for you to open up and share.

If you are on the fence about starting therapy, we completely understand, and that is why we are committed to providing a positive and comfortable experience here. Whether you are seeking therapy for yourself, your relationship, your child, or your family, coming in to start therapy can be a vulnerable experience. Therefore, therapy always goes at your pace, and we value interactive feedback while setting goals and coming up with a plan. Every single person, child, couple and family is unique; therefore, we design a custom treatment plan based on your unique needs and desires.

Are you searching to find happiness in the midst of life's unpredictability? Navigating challenges, picking up the pieces, and moving forward can be overwhelming. At times, it may even impact our connections with family and friends. While we are the experts of our own lives, a little support can make a significant difference. I'm here to extend my commitment to support you on your journey toward greater self-awareness. Together, we can manage the challenges that have arisen and will continue to surface. This effort will empower you to make healthier decisions, improving your life and helping you reach your goals. You've got this!

Hello and welcome! My name is Angela and I LOVE getting to work as a counselor. Getting to spend time with my clients, getting to know them, and encouraging them is one of my absolute greatest joys! My experience includes working with college students and adults who struggle with anxiety, stress, depression, and trauma, as well as women who are survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault. At Ellie Mental Health I see individuals, ages fourteen and older, and couples. I am supervised by Julia Ayraud, LPC-S, CGRS.

You are a woman who has been devastated by grief over pregnancy loss, infertility, or postpartum depression or anxiety. You desperately want to find someone to talk to about how alone and sad you feel. You feel heartbroken, ashamed, and angry lately. Your world has stopped while everyone else seems to be moving on without you. You find yourself having the same fights with your partner over and over again. Society glamorizes pregnancy and motherhood which can make you feel even more alone and misunderstood. If you see one more pregnancy announcement or social media post about the happiness of motherhood, you might lose it!

Are you feeling tired, anxious, depressed, overwhelmed, burnt out or feeling impacted by past trauma? Therapy can be a life changing experience that leads to significant healing, and wholeness. As a licensed psychologist, Dr. Glover uses a trauma informed lens to understand how societal factors, like oppression and injustice, impact mental health. She actively works to create safe therapeutic spaces where clients can be their authentic selves, claim radical hope, and have improved qualities of life. Dr. Glover specializes in working with BIPOC moms, professionals, graduate students, therapist and many others.

Through my counseling practice, I desire to empower others to achieve a balanced state of wellbeing, discover their self-worth, reach their fullest potential, and live joyfully. I provide a safe, welcoming, and non-judgmental space for my client’s voice to be heard. Past trauma and current life transitions can be painful and difficult; however, I believe that each of us has the ability to heal and grow stronger. Counseling is a tool that helps us recognize harmful beliefs and behavior patterns, learn new skills with which to resolve problems, and facilitate lasting positive change in our lives.

The life transition into becoming a parent is often not quite what we expected. Sometimes that means a struggle in the beginning, such as infertility, infant loss, traumatic birth, NICU trauma, post-partum anxiety/depression. Sometimes the struggle is when the baby comes home. Then they get even older and have different needs and you are not sure how to connect with them. It often takes a toll on your relationships, with your child or partner or extended family. You are just trying to be the best parent you can, while dealing with all that life has/is throwing at you. You are often doing this with little to no emotional support.

Do you struggle with PTSD, an eating disorder or infertility? Is this interfering with your relationships and day-to-day life? Do you feel exhausted just getting through the day, or worried by the thought “there’s no light at the end of the tunnel”? Do you hope that you could be more present with your loved one? Now more than ever, people are feeling betrayed by their body as they work on healing from abuse, infertility or an eating disorder. We believe it’s possible to find peace and feel whole.

Your experience is unique, and I'm here to provide a safe and understanding space. Together, we'll navigate the complexities, heal from within, and uncover your inner strength. With over 12 years of therapy experience, I provide a blend of warmth, humor, and sensitivity. You don't have to have it all together in my office.

The world has gotten a bit crazy, right? Some days, it can feel like you're burnt out, barely making it by on fumes. You deserve a grounded and nonjudgmental place to come to for relief from the chaos, where you no longer have to suffer in silence. Together, we can work to help you process unresolved trauma, help you navigate a new chapter in life, learn how to better regulate emotions, help you build your confidence to handle what's next, and start to feel better again.

Therapy should be a safe place where you can open up and speak freely and honestly. My goal is to provide you with the best mental health care possible in a courteous and efficient manner. I understand your need for confidentiality, trust and respect. My therapeutic approach is solution focused and cognitive behavior therapy. I work extensively with women issues, depression (including postpartum depression), anxiety, infertility, miscarriage and self-esteem. I provide help for marriage counseling and individuals with relationship problems.

I enjoy working and partnering with individuals who seek to enhance their well-being. Dealing with life's many trials can create a confusing environment for us and processing through those emotions can be difficult. I am here to walk with you and assist you through your journey. I am considered a trauma therapist through the life span and particularly work with adults and children struggling with complex PTSD and the effects of trauma. The specific traumas I work with are sexual trauma and childhood trauma. I also have a strong passion for individuals walking through the painful valley of infertility/reproductive trauma.

Brene Brown once said, "The truth is that falling hurts. The dare is to keep being brave and feel your way back up." Sometimes, this can be a daunting realization, but you don't have to do it alone! My own experiences with grief, loss, infertility, anxiety and other life changes have shown me a level of familiarity and connection that cannot be taught, allowing me to connect with others in need of support. I received my Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2022, am an LPC-Associate, supervised by Lisa Salazar, DMFT, LPC-S and it would be an honor to walk alongside in your journey to peace and healing!
