Our counselors provide therapy in McKinney, TX

Hello, my name is Allison. I am an LPC licensed in Texas. I received my Master of Arts in Counseling at Houston Baptist University in 2019. While gaining my experience hours, I worked in both the hospital and private practice setting at the height of the pandemic. I have served patients in both the inpatient and outpatient setting, both adolescents and adults across the lifespan, with mental health and substance abuse treatment. I have experience helping those with trauma, chronic health issues, LGBTQ+ and cultural concerns, and those struggling with recent life changes such as divorce, loss of a loved one, etc.

I utilize the DBT framework as it addresses changes clients may want to make as well as sharing skills that will help with acceptance, and the irreverent style still provides empathy and care allowing for clients to feel heard and not talked at. I also utilize CBT, ACT, EMDR, as well as addressing the mind-body connection.

I know how it feels to be looking for answers, to need a safe space to be yourself and figure out life's path. I hope to be part of that place for clients and look forward to being a part of your journey.

I’m Angie Munsey, an LPC-Associate with counseling experience in private practice, middle school, and high school settings. I work with individuals 11 and older, couples, and families navigating anxiety, depression, grief/loss, life transitions, burnout, caregiver fatigue, and relationship challenges. I also help clients identify and work through people-pleasing, perfectionism, and overcontrol. My clients seek to understand recurring patterns, communicate more clearly, build stronger boundaries, and make confident decisions that reflect their values and strengthen their relationships.

My style is warm, direct, curious, and collaborative, with room for humor. I integrate CBT, ACT, and SolutionFocused Therapy with art and play therapy techniques. Together, we’ll explore patterns, consider new perspectives, and practice skills to help you respond intentionally and make changes that reflect your values.

You don’t have to do it alone, and you don’t have to have it all planned out. I’ll meet you where you’re at. Together we’ll decide what happens next. If you’re scared, that’s okay. Doubtful? That’s okay too. Do it scared. Do it doubtful. Schedule the appointment. All you have to do is start.
