Welcome to my professional space! I'm Yvette Payne, a passionate and dedicated Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Duncanville, Texas. With an active license in Texas since 2019, however, I have over 28 years of experience in the helping field. I bring a wealth of experience and a compassionate approach to therapy. My journey in mental health care is marked by a deep understanding of human behavior and a commitment to helping individuals navigate life's complexities. Whether you're facing personal challenges, dealing with trauma, or seeking support for your family, I am here to offer individualized care and guidance. I specialize in creating tailored treatment plans that address your unique needs, employing proven methods such as cognitive behavior strategies and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to foster healing and growth. My expertise extends to supporting those with complex trauma and I am well-versed in the intricacies of group therapy dynamics. My background includes working with adolescents, adults, and families across various settings—from private practice to program therapy at Metrocare Services. I've also provided vital mental health services at Hickory Trail Hospital and the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services. Communication is key in my practice. I strive to ensure that you feel heard and understood every step of the way. My goal is to empower you with the tools and insights needed for positive change.
