Eclectic Therapists in 77024

I have yet to meet anyone whose life experience has been wholly devoid of struggle. It seems to be part of the human condition. Although relative, these struggles are something we are all faced with from time to time throughout our lives. In my experience, therapy provides us with the means to not only face and overcome these struggles, but also to find empowerment and purpose within what may have previously been only pain. My belief in the transformative gift one can experience through effective therapy was born during my own personal journey of healing and growth, and later solidified through my work with others.

I have a Ph.D. in clinical psychology and did my internship at Baylor College of Medicine. Over 25 years of experience working with teens, adults and couples from diverse backgrounds. I work especially well with people who suffer from depression or anxiety and people who want help with stress management or establishing a healthier lifestyle. I have been an avid runner for over 40 years. I help people navigate our complicated health care system and am medically-savvy. Many physicians refer to me because they trust me to truly help their patients. I am a very good listener and terrific problem-solver.

When you come into my office I emphasize the importance that my room is your safe place. I do not want to add to your pain. Let's define your meaning of safety, and how to implement it in your daily life. I want our relationship to model what you aspire your other relationships to look like; setting boundaries, expressing your emotions, and validation of your feelings. I have deliberately seeked a variety of opportunities to shape and hone my abilities to become a licensed counselor.

Welcome! My name is Nicole Iredale, and I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 10 years of experience. I work with clients ages 13 and up and specialize in adolescents, young adults, and adults of various backgrounds. My areas of focus include trauma, depression, stress, anxiety, mood disorders (e.g., Bipolar Disorder), working with members of the LGBTQIA+ community, and Borderline Personality Disorder. My preferred theoretical approaches include DBT, CBT, and trauma-informed therapy, with an eclectic use of techniques under this umbrella.

Through my years as mental health clinician, I have learned that change is not possible in isolation. It would be my privilege to assist in your change/growth process. I offer an eclectic approach to psychotherapy with an extensive background in the treatment of trauma.  My training in Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral therapy and Dr. Bruce Perry's work The Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics has enabled me to specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression, PTSD, ADHD and many other diagnosis.

Since 2018, I have had the greatest pleasure of serving individuals in the behavioral and mental health field where I have seen them make great leaps towards recovery. My previous experiences have allowed me to aid individuals overcome major adversities. “When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves” is a quote by Victor Frankl that has guided me along my journey in the counseling field. Above all, I want to provide a welcoming and safe space with enough room for growth for each of my clients.

My client has difficulty with change and is unable to look at the positive side of things. Normally I see this in young adults feel are not reach their potential and are running out of time. The goal is to pay more attention to the things they already accomplish and prioritize life and recognize that sometimes life provides twists and turns out of our control. Teach the value of the ‘here and now’ to unstuck the mind and move forward; looking more at successes than failures without forgetting To use the latter as opportunities more than regrets.

I found an unintentional niche when I started my journey as a therapist. Most of my clients come in with very high anxiety and a disconnected from their bodies. While some truly only have anxiety, many more have discovered childhood trauma buried deep inside. My biggest surprise though was the amount of women I have seen come in with anxiety and together we have discovered undiagnosed ADHD. It has been my absolute joy to help these women understand themselves and learn to work WITH their brains and reconnect with the bodies that often feel foreign to them.

Hi! While it is necessary to introduce myself according to my education, experience, licensing, and specializations it is more important to let you know that I am a human first. I live life just like you and experience parenting pitfalls, marriage challenges, financial quandaries, and all of the other stuff that life is made of. My role in your life isn’t to tell you what to do or how to do it, it is to use the clinical skills I’ve learned, wisdom I’ve gained, and my clinical experience to help you navigate and heal from the “stuff” in your life.

Sometimes, life can feel hopeless or overwhelming. Sometimes, we find that the coping tools we have relied on are no longer working to manage the altered reality around us. Sometimes, we all need help, and reaching out is the first step. My approach to therapy is client-centered and eclectic, but I believe in focusing on individual strengths and finding solutions-focused methods to address individual problems. With experience living and working in diverse societies, I seek to understand your unique cultural perspectives and values. I use cognitive and behavioral approaches, but I am open to adjusting my techniques.
