Grief Therapists in Temple, TX

Hi! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Associate, under the supervision of Dwayne Frei, LPC-S. I work with adolescents, adults and couples that are struggling with anxiety, depression, grief/loss, or other life transitions. My hope is that throughout our time together on this healing journey, you gain the tools and skills necessary to cope with and to manage the inevitable ups and downs of life.

I have been a counselor for more than 30 years. I remain passionate about making a difference in the lives of others and believe that genuine caring is an essential element to an effective counseling relationship. Over the years I have worked with clients with significant trauma and loss.

A problem solving approach is used to assist clients in exploring factors that may contribute to the identified issues. A whole person approach is used that encompasses one's emotional, mental, physical and spiritual circumstances. Respect and understanding is paramount to the development of a productive, healing clinical relationship. Ms. Travis offers a variety of techniques to help clients achieve insights, make changes, overcome obstacles, and gain balance in their lives. Ms. Travis has a background in medical social work which adds to the whole person approach.

Change is inevitable, and with it emerges multiple experiences that shape your course as you transition through life. But know this, you have a choice in who is writing your story and what it says to you and those around you. I am Latisha Wilson and I find that it takes a bold and courageous person to ask for help. Let me take this time to welcome and congratulate you on taking the first step towards taking control of your life. You may be facing internal struggles, dysfunctional relationships, unhealthy thoughts, anxiety, stress, depression, grief, trauma, or misleading behavioral patterns.

We have therapists (Licensed, Associates and Graduate Students Interns) who specialize in different age groups (teens, young adults, middle age, and elderly), constellations (individual therapy, couples therapy, family therapy), and targets (pastors & missionaries, EMDR, affair recovery, blended families, veterans, grief & loss, etc.). If a client requests to incorporate Christian spirituality into counseling, our therapists are well trained to do so. However, we are incredibly respectful of our clients’ faith beliefs, including those who profess faith and those who do not.

Accepting new clients! Life is full of unexpected challenges. You deserve to feel heard, supported, and validated in your experiences.

As a spouse to a first responder and veteran, I know the challenges and joys that come with these roles. Through the years, I have grown a passion for helping first responders/veterans and their families as they navigate through those unique waters.

Have you or your child been experiencing anxiety, grief, or change in mood and behavior? Was there any past trauma to address? If you answered yes and are looking to create change and live a balanced emotional and behavioral life it can be achieved. You can live a healthy balanced life and feel the control that you are looking for. Your life has multiple ups and downs throughout your story. At times it can feel like you are not in control of things that you believe "should come easy". You have already taken the first two steps. First recognizing things are not the way you want them to be and secondly searching for answers and help.

Life can often be unpredictable and more dynamic than we are sometimes able to handle on our own. It is very easy to feel stuck, lost, hopeless, and even overwhelmed if we believe that we lack the resources and know how to approach our adversities. In the face of our challenges it is sometimes difficult to identify helpful solutions. This is how I may be helpful to you. Together we could explore what's possible and investigate solutions that work.
