I am Elizabeth GeorgAnn Meyer and I go by Georgie. I am a native Texan where I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate supervised by Allison Cornell, LPC-S. I have a Bachelor of Science from Tarleton State University and a Masters of Education in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Lamar University. I started my journey in the engineering field because I love to learn how things work. I love to create and build. My path then led me to learn how people work, how I work, and how to create and problem solve for healthy growth within ourselves. We all have our own journey. I would be honored to explore your journey with you.

Life stressors and painful experiences can be debilitating for children, teens and young adults. The constant feeling of impending doom and being paralyzed by fear can be crippling after traumatic experiences, as well as grief and loss, often leading to seasons of anxiety and/or depression. This dark cloud in the back of your head can foster feelings of low self-esteem, impair judgement leading to poor choices and destructive behavior, cause self-doubt and distorted self-image, inhibit academic and employment goals and disrupt relationships.
