Therapists for college students near Houston, TX

Hi, my name is Keaton Soileau, Licensed Professional Counselor-Associate (LPC-A), and at Houston OCD and Anxiety, under the supervision of Saharah Shrout, Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor, I specialize in helping adolescents and young adults with OCD and anxiety improve their overall quality of life and functioning. My ideal client is simply one that is committed to treatment and willing to work collaboratively towards their own unique goals. I provide individual one on one sessions in person and online, as well as intensive outpatient therapy (multiple or extended sessions per week) for those seeking a higher level of care. Specializing in treating OCD and anxiety disorders, I use gold standard anxiety treatments, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with Exposure Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Mindfulness-CBT. I also provide SPACE training to help parents implement symptom-reduction skills for their child's anxiety and OCD. I believe that each individual brings their own unique experiences to counseling and that you are much more than your symptoms, even though it may not seem this way right now. Collaboratively, I will work towards helping you obtain your goals, meet you with genuine care, and help challenge your fears when fear stands in the way of your best quality of life.

Do you ever feel like no matter how hard you try, you are unable to see yourself as more than a body? That diet culture is so deeply ingrained in our society that it feels impossible to escape? You are not alone. We live in a world that has convinced us that pursuing an unrealistic thin ideal is the key to happiness. That if we "work hard enough," that void we constantly feel, will eventually go away. That's why my goal is to help you reach a place of acceptance so that you can experience a more fulfilling life, free from diet culture and the toxicity that ensues. I specialize in treating children (as young as 10), adolescents, and adults struggling with eating disorders, disordered eating, body dysmorphia, and other related disorders. As a bilingual therapist, I am able to conduct therapy sessions in Spanish. While my primary specialty is eating disorders, I also help individuals better cope with anxiety, manage life transitions, and develop a healthier sense of self. I believe that in order to fully heal, we must get to the root cause - exploring childhood trauma and interpersonal relationships is a big part of the work I do with my clients.

Hi there, I'm Gabriela! I would describe myself as a warm, supportive, and relational therapist, ensuring to build a strong connection with those I work with. I am dedicated to helping young adults find their footing in a world that often feels unstable. I have a passion for working with complex trauma, anxiety, depression, borderline personality disorder (BPD), self-esteem, and suicidal ideation. I offer a collaborative space where you don't have to face life's challenges alone.

My name is Jessica Carnesi Peterson and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Houston, Texas. I have a private practice in the Memorial-area of Houston and love working with clients, especially those who are college-aged and young adults. Prior to my private practice experience for the past 20 years, I worked at Menninger Clinic on the young adult unit. Presently, I work with clients who may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety, depression, other mood-related disorders, transition into college, and any phase of life challenges.

I work with women of all ages struggling with life transitions, depression, anxiety, PTSD, attachment issues, and codependency. In the therapy world, a big focus is often on the client learning to trust the therapist and building a strong therapeutic relationship. While I agree this is an essential catalyst for growth, I also believe it is equally important for the client to learn to trust themselves. I focus on empowering my clients to understand how their past experiences have impacted their current relationships, with self and others, and how they can change these patterns. I am a trained EMDR therapist and I utilize this evidence-based treatment to help my clients heal from emotional distress caused by trauma and adverse life experiences. I also specialize in Client Centered Therapy, Attachment Therapy, The Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. My clients and I collaborate on which approach is best for them and their goals. This work includes examining past experiences to make sense of current maladaptive patterns, practicing mindfulness, learning new skills, and examining client values and goals for future relationships. My goal is for my clients to feel empowered and able to view themselves with self-compassion and trust they have the capacity for change.
