Hi, I'm Amanda 'Mandy' Schramm! I have been working in the field for eight years and providing therapy for three. I have a Bachelors and Masters degree in Psychology from Sam Houston State University as well as a Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Sam Houston State University. I have many years of experience working with adolescents in residential settings as well as inpatient settings. I enjoy working with adolescents and adults to help them navigate through life (it definitely doesn't come with a handbook!) and meet them where they are. One size does not fit all in counseling, so I pull from different approaches to provide clients with a unique experience tailored for them.

Hi there, I'm Heather Kaminski, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate and a Certified Trauma Professional. I am trained in EMDR, ACT, DBT, Grief Counseling, Religious Trauma, and hold a certification in NLP.

People think you have it all together, but they have no idea how much you struggle. Feeling exhausted and ashamed, your self-esteem sinks lower by the day. You feel like an imposter. Your success feels fragile and being overwhelmed plagues you. You feel disconnected and isolated from family and friends but have no clue how to repair those relationships. I help clients learn techniques to lessen suffering and explore what a meaningful life means to them. Together, we will unravel your story. And in that safe connection, I will help you confront the shame and fear that come from believing you’re not good enough or don’t matter. I will help develop a healthier relationship with yourself and others.

Do you constantly worry? Do you overthink plans and solutions to worst-case outcomes so that you feel prepared? Does everything have to be done perfectly? Do you have difficulty handling uncertainty? Do you fear making the wrong decision? Do you feel restless? Difficulty with sleep? Do you move from relationship to relationship? Viktor Frankl said, “When we are no longer able to change a situation -we are challenged to change ourselves." He really knew what he was talking about. Each life transition inevitably forces us to navigate "stormy waters." If the challenge has become overwhelming, it's time to get some help. I specialize in helping those suffering from anxiety, including health care professionals and veterans. You don't have to continue suffering. You deserve to feel better. As a seasoned therapist, I can help you feel empowered to stop the cycle of worry and anxiety, find your sense of purpose, and reclaim your life. The good news is that we've all gone through seasons of our lives when we feel this way. The first step is to reach out to someone for help. My approach is straightforward: together we will identify your goals, establish a problem-solving treatment plan, and go from there. If something is telling you it's time to begin your journey; give me a call.
