Meet the Intern !!!

Hello! My name is Tonya Pitt, and I’m excited to be joining Summer Bell Counseling and Houston Therapy Services as a Graduate Intern. I will be graduating in May with a Master’s degree in Counseling and Human Development from Lindsey Wilson University.

I believe the foundation of effective counseling is the therapeutic relationship. I take an integrative approach, incorporating cognitive-behavioral, person-centered, and solution-focused therapies to create a safe, empathetic space where meaningful and lasting change can occur.

I have a special interest in working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief, and stress management. In addition to my Master’s program, I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Nursing from Western Kentucky University.

I am currently accepting new clients and have immediate availability ( office and telehealth) This is a great option for individuals without insurance or those with Medicaid, as sessions are offered at no cost or very low cost. This is an opportunity to receive quality mental health care in a supportive and compassionate environment.

I look forward to meeting you and supporting you on your wellness journey.

Please call 270-315-1228 to schedule

Sour candy can literally help stop a panic attack.

According to mental health experts, the intense flavor acts as a grounding technique—its sharp, jarring taste pulls attention away from overwhelming thoughts and into the immediate physical sensation.

This redirection can help interrupt the cycle of spiraling anxiety, bringing individuals back to the present moment. Additionally, the act of chewing and the surge in saliva production may support the body's calming response, offering a sense of control during distress.

While not a cure or replacement for therapy, this sensory-based strategy can serve as a quick, practical tool in moments of high anxiety. As noted by experts cited by Utah State University, sour candy can be particularly helpful in grounding exercises used during panic attacks. However, they caution that frequent or intense anxiety should always be assessed by a healthcare professional to ensure appropriate long-term care.

Our brains make connections on many levels — from surface thoughts to deeper emotions that live underneath. In therapy, exploring those layers can help us understand what’s really driving our feelings and reactions.

For example, when you hear a word, your brain instantly pulls up images, memories, and emotions linked to it — sometimes from years ago. That’s the beauty of processing in therapy: noticing what comes up first… and what comes up next.

Let’s start with a fun and easy word.
What’s the first thing that comes to your mind when you hear “Pizza”?

We’re inviting children to join our very first pilot groups at Tucker’s Treehouse starting August 28th!

If you know a child ages 6–18 who is grieving the loss of a loved one, we would be honored to walk alongside them in their healing journey.

Our groups provide a safe, caring space where kids can share, connect, and find hope together.

Contact us today to learn more or to enroll a child.
