Shawndel Springer, LPC — Therapist in Texas

Hi there, I'm Shawndel!

I help adults struggling with anxiety and depression related to career and relationship stress become the best versions of themselves. My passion for working with individuals in need drives my commitment to supporting you through life's challenges.

My focus

I enjoy working with professionals who have come to an impasse in their personal or professional lives. These individuals often feel stuck, overwhelmed, and anxious about their relationships or careers.

My approach

I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to teach you how to resolve issues on your own. Through exercises in session and homework, I help you develop coping skills that enable you to change your thinking, problematic emotions, and behavior.

My communication style

My communication style is empathetic, supportive, and direct. I create a safe, non-judgmental, collaborative environment where you feel understood and empowered. Working with me feels engaging and purposeful as I equip you with practical tools to manage your challenges effectively.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a therapist was deeply influenced by my long career in the Army, working in healthcare. During my 26 years in service, I witnessed firsthand the profound impact that mental health has on overall well-being and the critical need for compassionate, effective support.

My goals for you

I start with a comprehensive assessment to understand your current challenges, strengths, and areas for improvement. Together, we identify key areas to work on first and formulate SMART goals broken down into smaller, manageable steps with a clear treatment plan.

Our first session

We start by getting to know each other. I introduce myself and explain my approach to therapy. I conduct a comprehensive assessment, gathering information about your current concerns, history, and background. We identify what you hope to achieve and outline a plan for future sessions.
