Hi, I'm Konika McPherson, LMFT I’m passionate about maternal health, family-, and relationship dynamics, especially in a multicultural context.  I have decades of experience in mental health and a trauma informed approach, as well as personal experiences of having a baby that didn't fit the textbooks. Add on my own bi-cultural background, I see the therapeutic process through a unique lens. I work from a holistic perspective, considering the importance of all facets of a person and their experiences, including physical, emotional, mental, psychosocial and spiritual. Together, we work on strategies that allow you to discover the root causes of your situation and find healthier solutions and meaningful connections. Let's connect.

I'm an LPC-A, NCC and graduate of West Virginia University with a dual MS degree in Clinical Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling.

I love helping women navigate through life’s challenges of overwhelm, self-doubt, etc. using support, compassion, encouragement, and accountability. The pressure of being a woman in today’s society can be challenging, even for the most successful. The idea that we have to “do it all” in order to “have it all” can be overwhelming and downright paralyzing at times. Each stage of a woman's life can present a different set of challenges. Are you struggling to find your path as you are entering into adulthood? Are you finding retirement age challenges to be too much to handle on your own? Or are you somewhere in-between? Do you feel guilty because you chose a career over a family, or a family over a career? Are you overwhelmed because you chose both but feel you are not living up to your or everyone else's expectations? Do you feel inadequate because you feel a major part of your life is missing but you are not sure how to find it? Do you feel like on paper, you have it all, but just can’t shake the feelings of depression, anxiety, overwhelm, or inadequacy? Or maybe you just need a few minor adjustments to be able to live your life to the fullest. I’ve been there, and through the help of others, I was able to reframe the way I viewed my life and make changes to allow myself to live with peace and joy again. I love helping other women work through their issues and gain control over their lives, and I would love to help you through your journey. I use a variety of therapeutic modalities, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Narrative Therapy, and we will work together as a team to find the best approach to creating and meeting your goals. I approach therapy with a combination of support, encouragement, guidance, and accountability. I will help you discover the strength within you and the right tools to envision and live the life you want. If I sound like the right match for you, please reach out and let’s get started on your journey of healing. I welcome anyone who identifies as a woman or identifies with women’s issues, regardless of sex, gender, or sexual identity.

Hello!  I am a recent (May 2019) graduate of the Masters of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Texas A&M University-Central Texas. I graduated from the same school in 2016 with a Bachelors of Science in Psychology.  I specialized in child and adolescents throughout my school career.  For my internship, I completed hours at Cedar Crest Hospital and RTC, working with children, adolescents, and adults.  Upon graduation I got a full time job at the same hospital on the adult unit.  I became adept at working with those with schizophrenia, Bipolar, depression, anxiety, PTSD, and Borderline Personality Disorder.  I also am very experienced and knowledgeable at working with those with ADHD, autism, and various learning and developmental delays. I enjoy using a person centered approach that focuses on the person’s strength and ability to manage their daily living through skills taught in therapy.  However, I enjoy research and drawing on many other modalities to provide the treatment that would best benefit the client. I am currently an LPC-Associate/NCC, but I am less than 300 hours away from full licensure. I have experience both with the short term hospital therapy and the more chronic long term therapy aspects, having seen several clients.  I have transitioned to private practice, where I see patients both in person and via telehealth. I currently cannot accept insurance because I do not have my full license yet, but I do accept cash payment. 

Your story doesn't end here. You are more than your experiences. I believe that everyone has the ability to heal, and it is my goal to help you find your way back to wellness. Let's start the next chapter together. My therapy approach is that of "Mind, Body, Soul" and believe that all three will influence someone's quality of life. Whether it be someone needing psychotherapy to address past traumatic events or someone who is holding their trauma in their body, everything revolves around alignment. I offer a variety of modalities that address the whole person, not just their mental needs. I offer EMDR for both adults and children both in person and virtually, Play Therapy (in person), and available for BOTH in-person and virtual, Somatic Experiencing, Trauma and Tension Releasing Exercises, and Ketamine Assisted Therapy. For those in Dallas, TX, I will be starting a 90 min. biweekly T.R.E. and "Chakra of the Month" Sound Bath group class. Winding Path Solutions came to me when I was hiking Mt. Rainer. As I was walking and not paying attention, I kept tripping on rocks and tree roots and stumbling on the path. Things like anxiety, depression, loneliness are all those rocks and roots. They make the path more complicated and trickier, but isn't it a great feeling when you've completed the path?
