Sam Walker (She/Her) prides herself on being a joyful and devoted helping professional. She earned her BA in Psychology, with a minor in French Language, from University of Texas at Arlington, and went on to complete her MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Amberton University. She has worked with children, teens, parents, and families, and her therapeutic approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to meet the unique needs of each client or family. She has a deep commitment to LGBTQI+, neurodivergent, and multicultural affirming therapy. She brings a unique social collectivist perspective to her counseling approach and integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), play therapy, and narrative techniques within a trauma-informed framework. This allows her to support clients with both evidence-based tools and deeply personal, story-centered healing work in order to honor their past while helping them move toward a more hopeful future.

Seeking therapy can feel vulnerable, and my goal is to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and not judged. I work with clients ages 9 and up, including individuals, couples, and families, who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, emotional overwhelm, or patterns in relationships that feel hard to change. I’m especially passionate about helping people build healthier relationships—with themselves first, and then with others. Whether you’re navigating challenges in intimate relationships, family dynamics, friendships, or simply trying to feel more grounded in who you are, I believe meaningful change is possible with the right support. I offer both virtual and in-person sessions and value meeting clients where they are—emotionally, relationally, and practically.

Hello! I have experience working with adolescents and adults using a variety of therapy techniques in individual and group therapy sessions. I work with a variety of treatment modules including CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, existential therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and mindfulness. I have worked extensively in crisis experience and with clients in crisis partial hospitalization (PHP), intensive out-patient (IOP), and in school settings.

My therapeutic style remains flexible and collaborative, focusing on your individual strengths, needs, and motivation. I consider it a privilege to partner with my clients in this work and to be trusted by them as they share their stories. I strive to create a collaborative space for you to share and examine your own behaviors, feelings, and thoughts; for as Cheryl Richardson has noted, “People start to heal the moment the feel heard.”

Hi, I’m Nicole! I’m passionate about bringing a relatable and contemporary vibe to the mental health space. I hold a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center, and my professional background includes work in psychiatric outpatient hospitals, public schools, and private practice.

I specialize in working with children, teens, and adults navigating the complexities of ADHD, Autism, PTSD, Anxiety, and OCD. My approach is holistic and comprehensive; I believe that while I provide the clinical tools, you remain the expert of your own life. I’m here to act as your partner in bridging the gap between your daily routine and your core values.

If you're a healthcare professional, first responder, pilot, or high-achiever who keeps it together for everyone else — but privately, things feel heavier than you let on — you're exactly who I work with. I'm a clinical psychologist with over 10 years of experience working with adults in medical settings and private practice. I help people navigate anxiety, depression, burnout, trauma, relationship stress, and the particular weight that comes with high-responsibility roles.

I also specialize in the emotional side of significant weight loss — including for people using GLP-1 medications like Wegovy, Zepbound, or Ozempic. Unexpected identity shifts, changes in your relationships, and complicated feelings about your body are a real part of that journey, and I can help you work through them. Whether you're in the middle of a hard season or you just know something needs to shift, my goal is for you to feel understood, respected, and not alone in it.
