Andrea Felice Young-Mayes, LPC — Therapist in Texas

Hi there, I'm Andrea Felice!

I provide services to adults. My goal is to create a safe space where you can explore emotions, patterns of behavior, and ways of thinking that impact your quality of life.

My focus

I typically work with clients who have experienced symptoms of anxiety, depression, and other mood disorders. Oftentimes, clients will come to therapy after experiencing some type of grief and loss, divorce, or major life event. Additionally, clients come in with concerns about work/life balance, relationships, or a pending career change.

My approach

I use a combination of positive psychology and a humanistic approach when working with clients.

My communication style

Clients I work with will feel supported through empathic engagement and active listening provided. Most clients feel comfortable with my approach as I am naturally more soft-spoken, and often this puts clients at ease, especially if it is their first time attending counseling.

My journey to mental healthcare

“We rise by lifting others.” - Robert Ingersoll

My goals for you

In the first session, I ask clients what they would like to see differently at the end of our time together in therapy. Additionally, I start each session by asking what the client would like to work on today, allowing for the needs of the client to be met with each session, whether it is the 1st, 3rd, or 6th time we have met.

Our first session

I will ask what brings you to counseling, what you hope to gain, and about any current mental health symptoms. I will also ask about past health history, family dynamics, or traumatic events significant to your treatment. These questions help me get a full picture of you so I know how best to support you.
