Our therapists provide couples & marriage counseling in Helotes, TX

I'm a licensed professional counselor associate (LPC associate) and a graduate of Texas A&M University–Central Texas. My experience spans a continuum of care, from inpatient treatment to intensive outpatient and outpatient settings, including a year-long internship at an inpatient hospital. I have also facilitated violence prevention groups and worked with court-mandated individuals. My approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). While I do not currently specialize in one specific area, I'm committed to continually expanding my knowledge across a broad range of mental health concerns and client populations.

My approach to counseling is grounded in the belief that you have the power and the reins in your own life. I see my role as a sounding board, guide, and supportive partner. Stress management is an important part of my approach. I also believe counseling should consider the whole person—work, relationships, children, and pets all influence wellbeing.

I recognize choosing to begin counseling is a meaningful decision, and I don't take the time you share with me for granted. One of the quotes I've carried with me is, "Be the leader you wish you had." That idea reflects how I strive to show up—with honesty, compassion, respect, and genuine care. If you feel ready, I invite you to schedule an appointment.

My name is Nicole Sharp and am a Bryan/ College Station native. I went to Texas A&M University for my undergraduate and received a BA in Psychology. I then attended the University of Houston- Clear Lake for my MA in Marriage and Family (Systems Theory) therapy. I work with clients from 6 years old to older people dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, personal growth, loss and grief, stress, codependency, women's issues, relational challenges. From a systems approach, I help clients also address any systematic (work, family, cultural, socioeconomic systems) they attribute to them feeling "stuck" in old patterns and behaviors.

My approach is very collaborative. My clients are the experts of their lives. I am just the tour guide helping them navigate where they want to go. I adapt Cognitive Behavioral therapy, psychoeducation and other training to best adapt and help each adult and teen client. With children, play, games and storytelling are often used.

You are the expert of the life that you have lived. If you are ready to take the next step in your wholeness and healing journey, I would love to partner alongside you. "Every great journey starts with a single step" - Maya Angelou.
