Shele Lillis
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, CFRC
Taking the step to begin therapy is an act of profound courage, and I deeply respect the vulnerability it requires. I want you to know that the space we create together will be a sanctuary—one defined by unwavering trust, safety, and non-judgment. My intention is for you to feel truly seen and heard from our very first interaction. I am motivated by the desire to support clients through personal reflection and insight; to empower clients as they walk through their life journey. I am passionate about creating a strong connection to support the therapeutic alliance needed to achieve healing, growth, or, any other therapeutic goal.
With 15+ years of experience, I am skilled in working with individuals, couples, young adults, veterans, and the first responder community. Shele has worked in all treatment levels, and currently private practice. She enjoys all areas of mental health and specializes in treating PTSD/trauma, resiliency training, couples counseling, and eating disorders.

Renew Restoration
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S
I became a therapist because I understood, early on, what it felt like to keep moving when something underneath wasn't right. That experience shaped how I see people, not as problems to fix, but as individuals who adapted to what life asked of them.
For over seven years, I've worked with people who are capable, driven, and often very good at holding things together, while quietly carrying something heavier beneath the surface. Burnout. Disconnection. A persistent sense that the life they've built doesn't quite fit who they are anymore.
That's the work I care most about. Not just helping people feel better, but helping them understand themselves, the patterns, the adaptations, the survival strategies that made sense once and may be costing them now.
I wrote The Secret Life of Silent Suffering because I wanted to name what so many people experience but rarely say out loud. That same thread runs through everything I do: therapy, training, speaking, and education for other clinicians.
I believe healing is possible. Not as a return to who you were before, but as a gradual movement toward greater clarity, freedom, and alignment with who you actually are.

Rebecca Phillips, MS, LPC, CCTP, EMDR Therapist in Frisco Texas
Licensed Professional Counselor, Master of Science, LPC, EMDR Therapist, CCTP: Complex Trauma
Love should not hurt. If you find yourself worried, anxious, or overwhelmed in your relationships, I can help. Do you lay in bed at night with racing thoughts, wondering what you seem to keep getting wrong or worrying about whether your partner will leave you? Do you worry that you’re not enough or that you’re sometimes too much? Do you live in fear of rejection or abandonment? You may have an anxious attachment style or even complex trauma (issues from your past that present in your current relationships). If love hurts, I can help.
*
I specialize in helping adults who struggle with self-confidence, worry (anxiety), and trauma (usually from stressful childhoods or past relationships) find clarity, calmness, and confidence. When my clients come to see me, they're often distressed in their relationships. They're smart, kind, and successful. But they're often self-sabotaging, and they don't even realize it. In our work together, my clients learn how to show up in their lives in a way that fosters fulfillment. You can have that, too. Imagine your potential when you understand and manage what's holding you back. You can have happy, healthy relationships when you're the best version of yourself. You can do this! I can help.

Cristina Ciobanu
Counselor/Therapist, LPC Associate Supervised by Ryan Holliman PhD LPC-S
If you've landed here, something has probably shaken the ground underneath you. Maybe it was a discovery, a slow unraveling of trust, or a moment that changed how you see everything, including yourself.
I started Sense Therapy because I know what that feels like, not just professionally, but personally. I've experienced betrayal trauma. I know what it's like to look okay on the outside while quietly trying to make sense of something that doesn't add up. I know how exhausting it is to overthink, overfunction, and still feel like you can't fully settle.
That lived experience shapes everything about how I work. When you sit across from me, you're not just working with someone who understands betrayal trauma clinically. You're working with someone who has been in that disorienting place and found a way through it.
What makes this practice different is the combination of warmth and structure. I don't believe healing means just talking about what happened indefinitely. We move with intention, at a pace that feels right for you, using evidence-based approaches that actually give you tools, not just insight.
My clients often tell me they finally feel like someone gets it, without judgment, without rushing them toward forgiveness or a decision they're not ready to make.
If any of this resonates, I'd love to connect. A free consultation is the simplest place to start.
