Counseling & Trauma Services In Conroe

Hello. I’m Jean Mach, LPC. My passion is to facilitate personal growth, self-awareness, and improved interpersonal functioning for clients through a collaborative therapeutic relationship. I use a range of theoretical orientations, primarily Family Systems and DBT concepts of Mindfulness. The needs of each client determine whether a behavioral or a psychodynamic approach is more helpful.
 
Understanding of self is a basic tenet of therapy. I use imagery along with verbal expression to reinforce self-awareness, personal strengths, and problem-solving abilities among my clients. I work effectively with those who have current or past trauma, major depression, anxiety, grief and loss, or difficulties with emotional regulation.
 
Please join me in facing your challenges. Together we will develop solutions to improve your quality of life and relationships.

Hello, my name is Valerie St. Germain, LMSW, EMDR Trained. I am currently working on my doctorate at Liberty University in community care and counseling with a focused-on trauma. I have a passion for working with adults who have been through traumatic experiences by utilizing motivational interviewing to instill hope and help them realize their capacity to change.
 
I also enjoy working with younger children with varying behavioral challenges by utilizing techniques found in Child-Centered Play Therapy. The spectrum of who I work with goes beyond trauma. I also have experience and enjoy collaborating with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, and personality disorders. My preferred methods when working with adults are cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, and strength-based perspectives.
 
Working in mental health is not only a job but a ministry, helping to empower individuals to become who God has created them to be. I hope that I will have the opportunity to work alongside you through your journey.

Hello, I'm Blythe Cordova, a compassionate and dedicated therapist specializing in helping children and teenagers navigate life's challenges. With a focus on building trust and fostering emotional growth. I use a combination of techniques found in Child-Centered Play Therapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to create a safe, supportive environment where individuals can explore and heal.
 
For children under 10, I use play to help them express and process emotions, building emotional regulation and self-awareness. For teens, I integrate IFS to help them explore their internal world, resolve conflicts, and develop healthier self-relationships. I create a safe, empathetic space for growth, healing, and empowerment for both kids and teens.
 
Through patience, empathy, and collaboration, I support my clients in developing stronger emotional resilience and a deeper sense of self. Whether you're seeking support for your child or teen, I work alongside you to guide them toward growth and empowerment.

Hi, my name is Jessica Gifford. I am a therapist at Capstone Connect, PLLC. Many individuals encounter trauma throughout their lives, and its lingering effects can be challenging to overcome alone. Coping with trauma and mental health concerns often creates a sense of overwhelming distress, making it difficult to discern where to begin seeking support or whom to trust.
 
Consider the prospect of experiencing a sense of calmness, or waking up refreshed after a restful night's sleep. Picture the ability to fully engage with your daily life, forming meaningful connections with yourself, loved ones, and friends. What if you could alleviate the weight of trauma and mental health burdens.
 
I offer a compassionate and evidence-based approach to help you navigate your healing journey. I have experience working with pre-teens, teens, adults and couples. I am here to support you every step of the way. Contact me to schedule a session and take the first step towards empowerment and healing.
