Why did you become a therapist, and what motivates you to continue?

Since I was a young girl, I desired to help others. Others would often confide in me and I was often told that I have a soft heart. When I was growing up, a soft heart was viewed as a weakness and being too sensitive. I have since learned that the sensitivity that I have is by design and it’s a superpower. As I matured, I continued to be empathetic towards others and desired to help others navigate life’s obstacles. Years later I decided to embrace my gifs and my purpose unapologetically. With this sensitivity I use an eclectic approach tailored to the client’s specific needs. I have always had a heart for people. Since a young child I would listen to other problems and try to help them. Later in life, I realized that my connection to others was indeed a gift. Watching others face obstacles, make needed adjustments, and embrace change in order to heal is what continues to inspire and motivate me to do this work.

I am Tiffany Jones, Owner of Psychache Solutions LLC. I provide a comprehensive set of services to help you boost your confidence and offer support as you navigate your mental health and wellness challenges. I work with clients closely in order to achieve measurable results that allow them to push forward with a new, positive mindset.

I became a therapist because I am fascinated with people's life stories and because I believe in the healing it can produce. I continue because I am constantly inspired by my clients, the way they overcome their struggles, and know without a doubt that there is no other field that would bring me this level of deep fulfillment.

Hi! My name is Arlee Pryor. I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Associate, supervised by Brittany Whallen LMFT-S, LPC-S, and the owner of Balanced Life Psychotherapy. Balanced Life Psychotherapy is an online private practice serving adults, couples, and teens residing in Texas. I specialize in comprehensive care for relational issues, family conflict, trauma, anxiety, LGBTQ+, grief, and life transitions.

The work of therapy, both as the client and the therapist, requires intentionality, vulnerability, bravery, and patience. As a therapist, I have had the opportunity to develop meaningful relationships with a variety of people, many of whom were passionate about the change they wanted to see in their lives. Supporting my client while they embark on the emotional work of healing and self-awareness is both motivating and exciting. I understand the challenges of sharing the thoughts and feelings that we are not always comfortable sharing. When my clients acknowledge their feeling of discomfort or uncertainty and still decide to move forward in the therapeutic process- that fuels my work as their supporter.

Hi, I'm Kalisha Crone and I’m a licensed clinical social worker who is passionate about supporting communities of color and helping all of my clients improve their overall well-being. My life’s journey paired with my education has afforded me countless learning opportunities that have shaped me into the therapist that I am today. I use techniques such as mindfulness, client-centered therapy, and cognitive behavioral interventions to create a safe space for my clients to process, reflect, learn, grow and eventually go forth on their own. I believe in the power of resilience and I understand that in sharing our stories and receiving the validation that we deserve we can heal the hurt and trauma we have carried for far too long. I care about you, your family, and your story. You can trust that I will treat you with respect, dignity and compassion in every interaction, while maintaining the highest standards for integrity and ethics. Please feel free to contact me for a free consult to see if we are a good fit!

I have always been passionate about seeing people overcome challenges, grow, and heal. It is an honor to witness the courage and resilience of my clients.

Are you feeling stuck or overwhelmed? Are you struggling with self-doubt? Are you feeling disconnected from yourself or others? Are you ready for change but don't know where to start? Therapy might be the solution for you. I help individuals like you navigate these challenges and find their way to more fulfilling lives. I offer a non-judgmental, trauma-informed environment where you can make the change you want for yourself. Upon your request, I can also help you address your concerns from a faith-based lens.

In my journey in life, many have helped me along the way. Helping others is a calling. I knew early on that I wanted to give back and help serve others. People are inherently good and want what’s best; that passion in others drives me.

I learned early on that I had unique qualities and skills (high levels of empathy and compassion, ability to listen and care for others, insight and self-reflection) and that I wanted to help others. I discovered the field of social work at The University of Texas in Austin by accident and found that it was a great fit for me. After working in the field for many years in a variety of settings (inpatient, residential, hospital, school, non-profit) and roles (mentor, case manager, group therapist, program director, clinician), I decided to open my own practice so I could do more of the type of work that I love.

I became a therapist because of experiencing first hand heartache with mental health issues in my family as a child. I was curious as to how and why this happens and wanted to learn how to help. My interest in psychology has not changed since then! My high school guidance counselor's response and support of me when I was experiencing significant grief and loss as a teenager is also the reason I became a therapist. What continues to motivate me is my constant thirst of knowledge, the joy I feel with helping people, and the flexibility of combining art into my practice, which is a passion of mine. I love researching, in depth learning, being creative and am generally energized by engagement with people. My motto is from my undergrad school Virginia Tech, which is Ut Prosim. Ut Prosim essentially means "That I May Serve." I live by this motto. I have worked in community mental health, non profit organizations for domestic violence survivors, hospitals, a police department and in school environments in Chicago, IL and Dallas, TX. I have been a private practice owner since 2019. Individual services begin at $200. I currently do not accept insurance, but am able to provide sliding scale. I also accept FSA/HSA. I look forward to being a part of your journey, whether individually or in a community healing environment!
