Edna Brinkley
Psychologist, PhD, ART, CCATP
Women hire me to help them overcome overthinking. What this looks like is, together, we figure out which thoughts, behaviors, attitudes, and emotions about situations, people, even yourself, are stressing you out and then teach you easy-to-learn, very practical, personalized, evidence-based skills and strategies to deal with them. We'll work hard to get to the root of what's causing you distress.
Moreover, whether you call it anxiety, panic attacks, or nerves, we believe it could be rooted in not knowing how best to handle your sources and symptoms of stress.
To help us determine if we're a good fit for individual therapy, I offer a free 15-minute phone conversation.

Michelle Borowitz
Psychologist, PhD
I'm a licensed clinical psychologist with over a decade of experience helping clients make sustainable change for the better. With extensive training in motivational interviewing, I help clients explore and understand the impact behaviors like substance use, overeating, and others are having on their well-being, and guide them in making an individualized plan for change. Taking into account your life context and environment, we'll work together to address underlying issues such as stress, anxiety, and depression in order to reduce unwanted behaviors and develop coping strategies that work without causing their own problems.

Solid Ground Counseling & Wellness
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-S
Finding the right therapist is about more than credentials--it's about finding someone you can actually talk to. At Solid Ground Counseling & Wellness in Cedar Park, I offer therapy that is genuine, thoughtful, and down-to-earth. I'll listen, but also ask you questions, help you notice the patterns that are easy to miss when you're in the middle of them, and gently challenge you when it's helpful. My approach to counseling for anxiety, difficult relationships, and trauma is compassionate without feeling overly clinical, so you can understand yourself better and make changes that actually fit your life.

Paul D. Myers MA LPC Supervisor
Counselor/Therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor
Counseling has been my life's calling since I was 17 years old! 40,000 counseling sessions later, I am still just as passionate about helping others as when I first started. Seeking help means you are taking responsibility for your life and I applaud you for that. My approach to therapy is warm, objective, and empathetic. I work hard to create a judgement free space, that originates from a Christian faith based perspective. I want therapy to be concrete for practical application and for you to feel confident in implementing tools after you leave. It has been extremely rewarding to help over 10,000 families heal from a wide variety of struggles and I would be honored to partner with you towards meeting your goals.
My wife and I own and manage a group counseling clinic with 8 clinicians total that we train and manage. Dont hesitiate to ask if you have any questions before we get started.
