✨ A gentle holiday reminder ✨

As schedules fill up and routines shift, we wanted to share a quick reminder about our cancellation policy. To avoid being charged your full session fee, please let us know of any changes at least 48 hours in advance.

We truly understand that the holidays can be busy and unpredictable. At the same time, consistency is an important part of the therapeutic process, and late cancellations make it hard to offer that time to another client who may need it.

If something comes up, we are always happy to explore virtual or phone sessions, or a format change when possible. Thank you for your understanding, your communication, and for prioritizing your care 🤍

The team had the best time celebrating the season last night at ! This year the clinicians all voted to nix a traditional sit down dinner for a fun bonding activity. 😀 What’s better than good apps, good food, *and* mini golf?! ⛳️

was our first big winner of the night followed by the resilient ! We had a blast! 💥

Our first-ever CBT + Cooking Camp was such a sweet week. 🥣💛

From silly moments to serious concentration, our little chefs practiced coping skills, flexible thinking, confidence, teamwork, and mindfulness while creating fun, creative turkey week themed recipes together.

Seeing kids try new things, support each other, handle frustration, and proudly show off their creations was magical. 👩‍🍳✨

Thank you to our amazing campers, families, clinicians, and volunteers for making this week so special. We already can’t wait for the next one!

Therapy doesn’t have to feel intimidating for kids—and at Houston Anxiety & Wellness Center, it isn’t!

In her newest blog post blog post, Bailey Grunder, LPC-Associate
shares how therapy becomes a meaningful, empowering experience when it’s tailored to each child’s unique needs. Instead of sticking to rigid talk-therapy, sessions blend evidence-based tools like CBT, ACT, and exposure therapy with creative expression, play, art, and hands-on activities that help kids open up naturally.

For parents, this approach means you can feel confident that therapy is not only engaging and enjoyable, but also grounded in research and designed to create real, lasting change.

Anxiety is likened to lava slowly creeping up inside a volcano — you may not feel it at first, but as stress builds, even a small trigger can set off an eruption. The goal isn’t to eliminate anxiety entirely (it’s a natural, human response), but to keep the lava low. 🔥

In her newest blog post blog post, Allison Leibman, LPC-Associate
breaks down two types of tools: preventative tools (for everyday maintenance) such as mindfulness and movement as well as reactive tools (for when anxiety is already high) such as reality-checking and reframing unhelpful thoughts. The blog emphasizes that growth isn’t about never feeling anxious — it’s about noticing, pausing, and choosing how to respond. And it’s okay to start over again.
