Maybe life looks okay from the outside, but something inside feels off. Counseling can give you space to slow down, understand what's keeping you stuck, and find your way forward.
You spend a lot of time taking care of what needs to be done and showing up for the people who count on you. Somewhere along the way, it can become easy to lose sight of what you need, too.
WayfindHer Counseling is a place to slow down, make sense of what you're carrying, and reconnect with what matters to you—so you can move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
Support for women who are used to holding a lot—anxiety, life transitions, relationships, self-doubt, and the pressure to keep everything together. Counseling offers space to understand what’s happening beneath the surface and find a way forward that feels more like you.

I've worn a lot of the same hats many women wear — teacher, school counselor, working mom, stay-at-home mom, and first responder's wife. Those experiences have given me a deep appreciation for the many roles women carry and the way life can sometimes pull us in so many directions at once.
I believe counseling can offer a place to step out of those roles for a little while—to slow down, hear yourself think, and reconnect with who you are beneath everything you're responsible for.
More About Brooke
My approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps us understand how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors influence one another. Together, we’ll get curious about the patterns that may be keeping you stuck and practice tools that can help you respond differently in everyday life.
We’ll also pay attention to the bigger picture. Sleep, movement, nutrition, relationships, stress, and the things that matter most to you can all shape how you’re feeling. Counseling gives us space to look at the whole picture—not just one piece of it.
A free 15-minute phone call—nothing formal, nothing to prepare for. Just a chance to talk about what’s bringing you to counseling, ask questions, and see if we might be a good fit.
Schedule Free Consultation
Before becoming a counselor, I spent years as a teacher and school counselor, and I've also experienced many of the roles and transitions that can make life feel full — working mom, stay-at-home mom, and first responder spouse.
Those experiences shaped the way I think about counseling. I wanted to create a space where women could step out of everything they're responsible for, slow down for a little while, and have room to focus on themselves.
My approach is both reflective and practical. We'll take time to understand what you're experiencing, notice patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and get curious about what might help.
We'll also explore what matters most to you — your values — and use those as a guide as you decide what you want to change and where you want to go from here.
Along the way, we'll build practical tools you can use outside of counseling, so the work we do together can begin making a difference in your everyday life.
I take a holistic view of mental health, recognizing that how we feel doesn't exist in isolation. Sleep, movement, nutrition, stress, relationships, environment, and the things that matter most to you can all play a role in your emotional well-being.
That doesn't mean we'll try to change everything at once. Instead, we'll look at the whole picture together and get curious about where small, realistic changes might make a meaningful difference.
For women who feel drawn to it, nature can also become part of the counseling process — whether through outdoor sessions, Walk-and-Talk therapy, or simply finding ways to feel more grounded and connected in everyday life.
Women come to counseling for all kinds of reasons. Sometimes life has changed. Sometimes something feels harder than it used to. And sometimes you simply know that the way things are isn't the way you want them to stay. I work with women navigating:
WayfindHer Counseling is located in a restored little blue house near downtown McKinney. I wanted the space to feel warm, comfortable, and a little less clinical than what you might picture when you think of a counseling office.
The house is also home to other wellness professionals, creating a space where physical and emotional well-being can exist alongside one another.
You don't need to have everything figured out before beginning counseling.
When you're ready, I'd be glad to walk alongside you as you figure out what you need and where you'd like to go from here.

Life asks a lot of women. Balancing responsibilities, caring for others, and meeting expectations can leave little room to slow down and ask yourself what you actually need.
Over time, it can become easy to lose sight of yourself. You may feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, uncertain about what comes next — or simply recognize that the way things have been is no longer working.
Counseling offers a place to step out of the constant demands of everyday life and create space for yourself — to better understand what you're experiencing, reconnect with what matters most to you, and begin making meaningful changes in your daily life.
Whether you're navigating a major transition or simply feeling disconnected from yourself, counseling can be a place to slow down, gain clarity, and begin finding your way forward.
Life doesn't always fall into neat categories — and neither does what you're carrying. You might see yourself in one of these areas, or several at once. That's okay.
Constant worry, overwhelm, that low-level hum of tension that never quite turns off. We'll work to understand where it's coming from and develop tools that actually help.
Feeling flat, disconnected, or like you've lost interest in things that used to matter. We'll gently explore what's underneath and identify small steps that may help you begin feeling more like yourself again.
Career changes, becoming a mom, children leaving home, divorce, retirement — any season that asks you to redefine who you are and what you want.
Whether you're grieving a person, a relationship, a chapter of your life, or a version of yourself — grief deserves real space, not a timeline.
Communication patterns, boundaries, conflict, or the exhaustion of over-giving — in marriages, friendships, and family relationships.
Questions about who you are beneath the roles you play. Especially common in seasons of change — and especially worth sitting with.
Pregnancy and new motherhood can bring significant emotional changes alongside the physical ones. Counseling can provide space for postpartum anxiety or depression, changing roles and relationships, and the identity shift that can come with becoming a mother.
Feeling stretched thin from caring for others, managing responsibilities, navigating the demands of life as a first responder spouse or partner, or carrying more than feels sustainable. Counseling can offer space to recognize what you need, explore boundaries, and find more sustainable ways forward.
Start with a free 15-minute phone call. We’ll talk briefly about what you’re looking for and whether working together feels like a good fit.

The environment around us can influence how we think, feel, and engage with the world. Spending time outdoors can offer a natural opportunity to slow down, notice what’s happening within us, and step away from some of the noise and demands of everyday life. Many people find that being outside helps them feel calmer, think more clearly, and breathe a little easier.
Nature-based counseling intentionally incorporates the natural environment into the counseling process as a way to support the work we’re already doing together. Nature isn’t the focus of therapy. You are. Instead, it becomes part of the setting—creating space for reflection, clarity, and meaningful conversation.
A growing body of research suggests that spending time in natural environments may support mental health and emotional well-being.
Traditional office counseling can be a great fit for many people. For others, sitting across from someone in an office can sometimes feel formal or difficult to settle into. Being outdoors can offer a different experience—one that may feel more relaxed and allow conversation to unfold more naturally.
For some women, the combination of movement, fresh air, and a change in surroundings can make it easier to slow down and notice what they are thinking, feeling, and needing.
Nature-based counseling may be a good fit for women who:
At WayfindHer Counseling, I take a whole-person approach to mental health. Emotional wellbeing is often connected to many parts of life, including relationships, physical health, daily routines, stress levels, and the environment around us.
Nature-based counseling reflects that perspective by creating an opportunity to slow down and consider the bigger picture—not only what you’re thinking and feeling, but also the relationships, routines, stressors, and experiences that may be affecting your well-being.
Together, we work to better understand what matters most to you and use those values as a foundation for meaningful change.
Nature-based counseling may include:
Sessions are tailored to your comfort level and individual needs.
If traditional office counseling has felt difficult to connect with, or if you simply feel drawn to a more grounded approach, nature-based counseling may offer a different setting for slowing down, reflecting, and working through what matters most to you.
Sometimes it can feel easier to talk while walking rather than sitting face-to-face in an office. Walk-and-talk counseling takes the session outdoors, allowing us to walk side by side at a comfortable pace while having the same kinds of conversations we might have in a traditional counseling session.
Walking can give you something to do while we talk and create a little more space to think, reflect, and work through what you're experiencing. There is no expectation to walk quickly or cover a certain distance—the pace of the session is shaped around you.
And while movement is part of the experience, it isn't the goal. This is counseling first. Walking simply provides a different setting for the work we're doing together.
Walking changes the rhythm of a counseling session. Rather than sitting across from one another, we move side by side at a comfortable pace, allowing the conversation to unfold as we go.
Along the way, we may pause, slow down, sit for a while, or simply keep walking. There is no distance to cover and no fitness goal to reach. The movement is there to support the counseling process—not become the focus of it.
You don't have to be athletic or even consider yourself someone who “likes to exercise.” If walking feels comfortable and you'd prefer to talk while moving, walk-and-talk counseling may be worth exploring.
Walk-and-talk counseling may be a good fit if you:
Walk-and-talk sessions begin much like any other counseling session. We’ll check in, talk about what feels most important that day, and decide together what would be helpful to focus on.
Sessions take place at local parks and nature trails in McKinney and the surrounding areas. We’ll choose a meeting location ahead of time and walk at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
Because we're meeting outdoors, we'll also talk through things like weather, privacy, the possibility of encountering other people, and what we'll do if conditions aren't a good fit for an outdoor session that day.
The setting may be different, but the purpose is the same: creating a supportive space where you can talk openly, gain insight, and work toward meaningful change.
You don’t have to know whether walk-and-talk counseling is right for you before reaching out. You may simply know that sitting in an office doesn’t quite feel like what you’re looking for.
A free 15-minute consultation gives us a chance to talk about what you're looking for, answer your questions, and decide whether walk-and-talk counseling feels like a good fit.
Schedule Free ConsultationYou don't need to be in crisis—or even know exactly what's wrong—to benefit from having a place to slow down, make sense of what you're experiencing, and figure out what comes next.
I take a whole-person perspective as well, recognizing that things like sleep, movement, relationships, stress, physical health, and daily routines can all influence emotional well-being. Depending on your needs and preferences, counseling may also incorporate nature-based approaches.
Ultimately, the goal is for counseling to help you feel more capable and equipped to navigate life—not to feel like you need therapy indefinitely.
Private-pay counseling can also provide greater privacy and flexibility, since treatment decisions are made between you and your counselor rather than being determined by an insurance company.
We'll also keep an eye on weather and trail conditions. If being outdoors isn't a good fit that day, we can move the session indoors or meet virtually instead.
Reach out anytime — or schedule a free consultation and we can talk through whatever's on your mind.
No pressure, no commitment — just a real conversation about where you are and whether WayfindHer feels right.
The free consultation is a brief phone call — about 15 minutes. I'll ask a little about what's bringing you to counseling, answer any questions you have, and we'll get a sense of whether this feels like the right fit. No paperwork, no intake forms, no pressure.
Fill out the short form with your contact info and a little about what you're looking for.
Within one business day, I'll be in touch to find a time that works for both of us.
A relaxed 15-minute call — no forms, no performance. Just a chance to connect and ask questions.
If we're a good fit, we'll schedule your first session. If not, I'll do my best to help you find someone who is.
Brooke will follow up within one business day.
