Tamara C. Taylor
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC, MCHC, ASDCS
As a Licensed Professional Counselor with board certification, Master Certified Health Coach and Autism Spectrum Disorder Clinical Specialist with 18+ years of experience, I want to hear your story. Why? Because it is your story and you deserve to tell it. Your story could be about happiness, love, hurt, anger, stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions and grief just to name a few. Sometimes all anyone wants to do is tell someone caring and compassionate their perspective regarding their story. As a therapist, I believe in giving everyone I meet a clean, unbiased slate. No judgment here. I will use a holistic (mind and body), open-minded and solution-focused approach in assisting anyone in telling their story, processing the events and moving forward with their life goals. I will support and at times coach you on practical ways to build tools to help you navigate this thing we call life.

Jessica Hope Murph
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LMFT-S
I’m Jess, MS, LMFT-S, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Supervisor committed to making therapy a real, human experience. I know what it’s like to feel unheard, judged, and let down by the mental health system—and I also know the profound impact of a therapist who truly listens, sees you, and helps you heal. My mission is to create that space for others, where they feel safe, valued, and supported.
My therapeutic approach is eclectic and person-centered, rooted in respect, inclusivity, and integrity. I believe in meeting my clients where they are, honoring their unique experiences, and holding space for whatever they need that day. I laugh, I cuss, and I show up as my authentic self—a highly trained professional, but first and foremost, a human. Therapy should feel like a space where you can be real, explore difficult emotions, and work through the things you’d rather avoid. This is your time, and I work for you.
I specialize in working with queer and neurodivergent individuals (ADHD, ASD), trauma survivors, couples seeking deeper intimacy, survivors of abuse, and those healing their relationship with food and body image. I am kink- and sex-positive, affirming of polycules and ethical non-monogamy, and committed to fostering a safe, judgment-free space where all identities, expressions, and relationships are respected.
I offer online therapy across Texas from my home in the Rio Grande Valley, near the Mexico border. Outside of therapy, I love gaming, animals, gardening, and cooking. I’m a total geek and proudly neurospicy (ADHD). I’m also passionate about public speaking at universities, organizations, and schools on a range of topics—from parenting and attachment styles to kink, BDSM, and ethical non-monogamy in clinical practice.
I am queer, cis, white, able-bodied, and privileged, and I work to remain aware of the spaces I take up. I believe in loving myself well and teaching others to embrace their needs without guilt. Setting boundaries, prioritizing mental health, and building self-worth are all acts of self-care that I encourage in my clients.
I hold a Master of Science in Marriage & Family Therapy and Counseling from Capella University and a degree in Psychology and Behavioral Sciences with a minor in Biology from the University of Texas-Pan American. In addition to being an LMFT-S, I have specialized training in trauma and a variety of addictions.
If you’re looking for a therapist who brings warmth, honesty, and expertise while keeping therapy real—let’s connect.

Kevin Brown, Therapy in Mindfulness
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
You're here because you're feeling stressed, stuck, or simply wanting to grow—and I’m here to help. Together, we will navigate the internal and external challenges you’re facing, so you can move through them with greater ease and clarity. In our work, your feelings, process, and perspective will be validated and supported in a safe, compassionate space. And sometimes, we don’t always see or understand what we truly need. My approach to therapy helps you develop the skills to navigate relational and emotional challenges while deepening your understanding of what may be missing and how to meet those needs. Life is already hard enough—you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to offer you a safe, skillful, and supportive space so you don’t have to.

Jennifer Pinkerton
Therapist, M.S., LMFT, CTP, C-PD
If you have unresolved trauma it can prevent you from having connections with others and inhibit your ability to function optimally in relationships. Trauma responses can force you into adaptive functions that leave you feeling stuck. In therapy, the emotional healing work can be done on your inner child to create new narratives and establish positive self-regard. Often people are driven by unprocessed emotions that keep you in a reactive cycle when you are merely seeking secure and loving connections. We can work together to resolve the pain you are feeling and address what you want and need out of your life, your relationships, and yourself. It is never too late to develop resiliency and transform your life. I provide a non-judgmental space to share with safety and compassion and consider it I privilege to understand your experience.

Edward J. Wilson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MEd, LPC, CHt
My life mission has been to understand the many ways in which our unconscious mind controls our lives, most often without our even being aware of it. And, most importantly, to help my clients take back their power.

Sara Pesic
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC, CCTP
In years of practicing counseling and doing my own training and research, I have learned that besides knowing "Why" it is also important to know "How." I find many people knowing where their trauma or problem is coming from, but they are still not able to move forward and resolve the issue. My focus is on understanding the client's challenges and then helping them move forward with practical and manageable steps.

Matthew Jones
Licensed Professional Counselor, MSCC, LPC
I began to pursue being a therapist because it is a source of healing and understanding and I want to help nurture that in others. I believe in paying it forward. There is a need to provide affordable and accessible mental health care. Therapy is a tool by which people can grow in the understanding of themselves and the world around them. IT is important to provide ethical and reliable care to those who want and need it. I try to guide the patient through the therapeutic experience by providing REST (Respect, Equality, Safety, and Trust.) This is one of the basic principles that I believe creates a healthy relationship. Come join me a safe space.

Sage Blackbird Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, NCC, LPC, CEDS
At the center of Sage Blackbird Therapy is a space for building wisdom through and healing conversation and reflection.
You have something to contribute to this world. Oftentimes, however, the society we live in tells us we need to shed those elements - do better, be better, and “have it all together.”
So often we are caught up in the hustle of what others want for us that we reach the end of the day and feel empty. Like we tried to live out the best version of ourselves and there’s a disconnect. The drive to pursue being someone you’re not can leave you feeling lonely.
And it’s the perfect storm of hiding our authentic selves.

Wade Maggert, Dragonfly Psychotherapy, LLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, PhD, LCSW-S
My path to becoming a therapist has been anything but conventional—and that’s what makes my work so deeply personal and meaningful. Before I was a clinician, I was an international club DJ, spinning tracks in nightclubs around the world. That life, though vibrant on the surface, masked deep wounds from an anti-gay upbringing and the emotional toll of living disconnected from my true self. Therapy changed my life. It helped me reclaim my story, reconnect with my body, and find a sense of inner peace I never thought possible. Now, as a PhD-level therapist, EMDR-certified clinician, and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, I offer others the same opportunity for transformation.
I specialize in working with LGBTQ+ adults who carry the weight of trauma, shame, and the search for identity. My approach is integrative—blending neuroscience-based techniques with depth psychology, mindfulness, and compassion. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply longing for more authenticity in your life, I’m here to help you make sense of your past and create a future that feels like home. Healing isn’t just about feeling better—it’s about becoming more fully yourself. Let’s take that journey together.

Dr. Andrew Bingman
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, PsyD
Many people struggle with the belief that they are not good enough, and they subsequently conceal or suppress parts of themselves that they fear will alienate them from others. My primary task as a therapist is to create a safe and validating environment in which you can feel free to be your whole self, without fear of rejection or judgment. My goal is to recognize, understand, and honor each part of you, especially the parts that feel most vulnerable.

Christine Fatherree @ Unwritten In Stone Psychotherapy PLLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker
I believe I have 2 superpowers. One is listening and the other is being curious. These create a powerful amalgam for change when used with proven therapeutic tools. Change can be scary, but sometimes we take a step into the unknown in spite of our fear. I believe this is being brave. That is the step that can move you toward the change and understanding you want.

Jeffrey Coira
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MA, LCDC, LCSW, CST
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor (LCDC) and Certified Sex Therapist (CST). I have experience working with diverse populations, and as a gay man, my personal struggles with addiction inspired me to pursue a career in therapy to help our community develop healthier coping strategies. My personal experiences have helped develop a deeper understanding of the struggles and obstacles individuals encounter in the LGBTQIA+ community, as well as the areas where psychotherapy can be most impactful for the clients that walk through our door. As a therapist, it is important to be able to find a space where people feel welcome and supported. At Severance Therapy, clients are welcomed no matter their background, experiences, race, ethnicity gender, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status.

Michelle Wolf
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.A., LPC-S
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and have spent over 18 years collaborating therapeutically with individuals, families, and schools. My passion is to help people learn ways to capitalize on their strengths, to help create an openness to gain improved skills, and to provide support as clients set a path towards improved day-to-day functioning. My experience has allowed me to help children, adolescents, and adults in private practice, juvenile justice settings, community settings, and school settings.
I now work exclusively in private practice and specialize in working with adults. I have treated a wide variety of conditions and have developed specialties in supporting those affected by depression, anxiety, trauma, bipolar disorder, parenting concerns, coping difficulties, and chronic illness.
I have a wealth of respect for those who choose to enter counseling. My goal is to provide a supportive and collaborative counseling environment so that you can use your strengths as a spring board to help achieve healing and growth.
