Trey Russell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I believe meaningful change happens when people feel understood, challenged, and supported at the same time. My approach is practical, evidence-based, and focused on helping you move forward — not just talk about the past, but understand how it shapes your present decisions, relationships, and patterns.
I work with individuals navigating anxiety, relationship stress, life transitions, identity concerns, and the pressure of carrying a lot for everyone else. Together we identify the thinking patterns that keep you stuck, build emotional clarity, and develop concrete strategies that improve daily life. Therapy with me is collaborative and direct — you’ll leave sessions with insight and tools you can actually use.
I value honesty, personal responsibility, and growth. If you’re ready to examine what’s working, what isn’t, and take intentional steps toward something better, I’d be honored to work with you.

Nick Young
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-Associate
I provide trauma-informed counseling for teens and adults in Fort Worth and throughout Texas who are working through trauma, PTSD, anxiety, stress, life transitions, self-doubt, and painful life experiences. Many of the clients I work with feel overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or unsure of how to move forward, even though they are doing their best to keep everything together.
My approach is warm, collaborative, honest, and grounded in Existential-Humanistic, Person-Centered, and trauma-focused counseling. I believe therapy should be a place where you can feel seen, supported, and accepted without judgment. Together, we will explore what has shaped you, what is keeping you stuck, and what kind of life you want to create moving forward.
As a Marine Corps veteran and former coach, I bring a deep respect for resilience, courage, discipline, and the effort it takes to keep going when life feels heavy. My goal is to help you rebuild confidence, strengthen self-trust, reconnect with your values, and take meaningful steps toward healing, growth, and a more grounded and authentic life.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate in Texas, supervised by Jacqueline Maye, LPC-S.

Alanna Preylo
Therapist, LMSW
You may feel worn down in a way that is hard to explain. Not just stressed, but deeply exhausted from carrying Pain, Trauma, Anxiety, Depression, or feeling misunderstood for far too long. Maybe you are questioning your worth, your relationships, or whether things will ever feel real again. When the weight becomes too much to hold by yourself, therapy can be a place where you finally feel seen, supported, and understood. You do not have to explain your pain or face it alone. Healing is possible, and together we can begin making space for relief, connection, and hope. Contact me today to learn more about how I can help.

Zach Ramsey
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC-S, CSAT
You may feel like your life has been turned upside down by addiction, broken trust, sexual behavior, or painful relationship experiences, and many people carry trauma connected to betrayal, emotional wounds, or sexual experiences that continue to shape how they feel and relate to others. You might be living with shame, fear of losing what matters most, unstable relationships, or the constant pressure of trying to hold everything together. Therapy can be a place to slow down, understand what is beneath these struggles, and begin healing not only behaviors, but the trauma and patterns driving them. Recovery and healing are about rebuilding safety, self respect, and connection with yourself and the people you care about. I also provide affirming care for gay and lesbian clients and offer a space where you do not have to hide or explain who you are. If you are ready to begin addressing what has been weighing on you and start creating lasting change in your life and relationships, I invite you to reach out today to schedule a consultation.
