Secure virtual counseling for Texas residents from the comfort and convenience of your home. Trained in EMDR, CBT, ACT, & mindfulness. www.vickiepurdy.com

I have been a licensed professional counselor for 19 years and have worked in a variety of settings. I've been in private practice for the past 5 years and enjoy working collaboratively with adolescents, young adults, and couples. I specialize in treating anxiety, trauma, and grief. I am supportive of people who identify as LGBTQ and/or BIPOC. I have a special interest in the Enneagram Personality Typing System, mindfulness/meditation, and the use of expressive arts as tools to support personal growth and healing. I also am able to provide helpful resources to assist clients between sessions. Since I work virtually from my home, I am better able to offer flexibility of scheduling appointments. I look forward to working together soon!
