Top therapists in Texas accepting new patients
Life can look perfectly fine on the outside while feeling overwhelming underneath. You don't have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. Whether you're feeling stuck, constantly overthinking, burned out, or repeating patterns you can't seem to break, therapy can be a place to finally make sense of what's going on.
I bring curiosity, honesty, and practical insight into every session. Rather than giving generic advice or simply asking, "How does that make you feel?" we'll work together to understand what's keeping you stuck, identify what's actually changeable, and build strategies that fit your life. I'll challenge you when it's helpful, support you when it's needed, and create a space where you can be completely yourself without worrying about being judged or getting it "right."
I am a Texas Native, who loves being outdoors and traveling to new places. I value a non-judgmental space that promotes authenticity, compassion, collaboration and clarity. I am committed to creating a safe space that is driven by your needs and goals.
I specialize in working with adolescents and adults.
I work with adolescents facing behavioral issues, self-esteem concerns, emotional, social and academic struggles, and stress. I also have a strong focus on supporting justice-involved and at-risk teenagers.
I work with adults in helping provide guidance through relationship challenges, emotional and work-related stress, and significant life transitions.
Across all age groups, I'm committed to helping individuals with a wide range of issues including: anxiety, depression, self-esteem and self-confidence, family conflict, addiction, academic and career conflict, as well as to help process trauma and loss. Together we will work to unlock healing, growth & create a more fulfilling life.
Welcome! Whether you're an athlete, performer, and high-achieving individual seeking to improve both mental wellness and performance or navigating anxiety, relationship concerns, life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, my goal is to provide a supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to create lasting change. I am also a Certified Mental Performance Consultant (CMPC), which has allowed me to work especially well with those who need consistent, high level performance. My clinical experience includes working with adults, adolescents, couples, families, athletes, LGBTQ+ individuals, survivors of sexual assault, and neurodivergent clients.
Life doesn't come with an instruction manual. When emotions feel intense, relationships become difficult, or stress starts affecting everyday life, having the right tools can make a real difference.
For more than 8 years, I’ve helped clients develop practical skills to better manage emotions, cope with difficult situations, improve relationships, and move forward with greater confidence.
My practice specializes in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)—a practical, skills-based approach that focuses on learning how to navigate life's challenges while building a life that feels more manageable and meaningful.
Counseling can help you:
• Understand and manage difficult emotions • Develop healthier ways to cope with stress • Strengthen relationships and communication • Set and maintain healthy boundaries • Increase self-awareness and mindfulness • Navigate transitions and challenges • Build confidence in handling difficult moments

Taking the first step toward change isn’t easy—but you’ve already done it by starting your search for a therapist.

You deserve support, healing, and a space where you can grow. If you’re ready, I’m here to walk alongside you.

I'm Valerie Sewell, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC-S) who works with individuals managing stress, burnout, and the ongoing demands of work, family, caregiving, and everyday life. Many of the people I work with are balancing multiple responsibilities and are looking for practical ways to feel more in control and less overwhelmed.
I am also a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), which brings an additional behavioral lens to my work as a counselor. While our work together is focused on counseling, my behavioral background helps me recognize patterns, understand what may be contributing to them, and develop practical strategies for meaningful change.
I am fairly straightforward in how I work and believe therapy should be useful in your everyday life. You do not have to have everything figured out before coming to therapy. I will meet you where you are, and we will take things one step at a time.
Hello, I’m Travis, and some days it’s hard to know where to start. Other days, it feels like there’s too much to say. Wherever you are, I’m here to listen.
