Enrique Martinez
LPC-A
​Supervised by Vanessa Hamlett, LPC-S​
Supervisado por Vanessa Hamlett, LPC-S
​
"Experiences in pastoral work and clinical training in mental health have shaped my professional journey. My belief is that life experiences shape our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. For some experiences, we have control. For others, we have no control or conscious awareness. As a result, the way we think, feel, and behave can become distorted and maladaptive. I desire to collaborate with you to examine these thought processes to achieve your desired results."
Enrique feels privileged to have a wide range of experience in clinical work with a diverse group of counselors, providing support for various populations. These include adults, adolescents, group, and individual settings. He also excels in using CBT to address anxiety, depression, trauma, and substance abuse.
​
"Mi experiencia en trabajo pastoral y mi formación clínica en salud mental han moldeado mi trayectoria profesional. Creo que las experiencias de la vida moldean nuestros pensamientos, sentimientos y comportamientos. En algunas experiencias, tenemos el control. En otras, no tenemos control ni consciencia. Como resultado, nuestra forma de pensar, sentir y comportarnos puede distorsionarse y volverse desadaptativa. Deseo colaborar contigo para examinar estos procesos de pensamiento y lograr los resultados deseados."
Enrique se siente privilegiado de contar con una amplia experiencia en trabajo clínico con un grupo diverso de consejeros, brindando apoyo a diversas poblaciones, incluyendo adultos, adolescentes, grupos y entornos individuales. También se destaca en el uso de la CBT para abordar la ansiedad, la depresión, el trauma y el abuso de sustancias.
*Enrique is currently accepting new clients for in-person and virtual sessions via Telehealth video conferencing.

jennifer
blais
Practicum Student at The King's University
Master of Marriage & Family Therapy (MMFT)
*Jennifer is currently not accepting new clients.
“My journey began with a ‘yes’ to God, when I felt a calling to counsel those who are hurting due to relational, spiritual, and physical abuse. I feel drawn to families and marriage counseling, but welcome the chance to serve all in need. I was raised in ministry and believe in relationship with Christ, but respect the different religions and cultures within our diverse community. Growth within ourselves will allow for growth in our relationships. It is my goal to partner with others to help them achieve personal, relational, and spiritual restoration.”
Jennifer’s passion for painting in her quiet time serves as an asset to clients who wish to connect to their creative side during therapy. Schedule a Dynamic Therapy Session with her this week!
*Jennifer is available via Telehealth video conference weeknights/weekends and in-person at the Fort Worth office on a limited basis.
