David Houston Murphy
Psychologist, PhD, LP, PSYPACT
As an autistic psychologist in Colorado, I personally understand many of the personal challenges my neurodivergent (ASD/autism, ADHD, learning abilities) clients are facing. I excel by helping you get clarity about your current challenges through psychological testing and what next steps and recommendations may be helpful after testing is completed. Through therapy, I often help clients come to terms with a new diagnosis, unmask, understand differences between neurotypical and neurodivergent approaches, and come to accept your identity as a neurodivergent person.

Alan Jacobson, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, Nationally Registered Health Service Provider
I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years of experience working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families to create meaningful, measurable change in how they feel, function, and relate to others. My approach is evidence-based, empathic, and solution-focused, with therapy centered on helping you achieve clear goals so that progress is noticeable in daily life. I work with a wide range of concerns—including anxiety, low mood, loss, self-doubt, and life transitions—and have particular expertise in performance psychology, public speaking anxiety, panic attacks, fear of flying, and questions of purpose or meaning. If you’re unsure whether therapy is the right next step, I also offer a one-time consultation assessment to help clarify what may be contributing to your current stress and identify effective pathways forward, whether through therapy or other strategies.

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.

Sauna Therapy | A Boutique Mental Health Studio | Paige Swanson
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LPC
What the Caterpillar Calls the End of Life, the Master Calls the Butterfly. – Richard Bach This was the first sentence of my personal statement which got me into Northwestern University where I got my graduate degree. Psychotherapy changes hearts and ignites transformation in an individual; the same way that the caterpillar transforms into a butterfly. In therapy, I get to watch people grow into magical, beautiful, bright-winged butterflies. I hope that Sauna can be a place for us to be human together. To self-inquire and get curious about ourselves. To know that even in the darkness – you’re not alone.

McAllen is the largest city in the Rio Grande Valley, a predominantly Spanish-speaking border region where the daily realities of life on the US-Mexico border—immigration, family separation, cross-border economic uncertainty, and the psychological stress of living in a highly scrutinized border community—shape the mental health landscape in ways that are unlike those of any other part of Texas. Spanish-language therapy is not merely preferred but essential in McAllen, and the demand for bilingual practitioners far outpaces supply in a region that is chronically underserved for mental health professionals per capita. The Rio Grande Valley ranks among the most underserved regions in the country for mental health care, and while health systems like DHR Health and South Texas Health System provide some behavioral health services, many residents go without needed support. Common therapy concerns include immigration-related anxiety and trauma, family separation stress, economic uncertainty, and the complex identity challenges of life in a bicultural, binational border community.
