Lori J. Lara, M.A, LPC Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here for you. I am here to help guide you into the new version of you.

I believe everyone deserves love and a sense of wholeness, and I work actively with clients to resolve core issues that may be holding them back from a healthier and happier life. Wellness is about finding contentment and healthy alternatives to current harmful thinking and behaviors. Perfection will never be an option--we are human after all--but improvement comes through community and healthier

choices. I am licensed in Texas with 13 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, intimacy related issues, chronic pain, motivation, confidence, & depression. I am here to support you in that process. Give me a call or email today so we can schedule our first appointment and get you on the road to feeling better. I look forward to meeting you :)

There's a massive difference between supporting your partner through their healing and taking responsibility for fixing their emotional pain. 𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐑𝐒𝐩, 𝐭𝐑𝐞 𝐨𝐭𝐑𝐞𝐫 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐜𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐲.

Fixing means taking responsibility for their emotions and trying to eliminate their pain. Healing together means supporting them through pain without making it your job to solve. Fixing means believing you're responsible for their triggers and managing their reactions. Healing together means understanding their triggers while knowing they're responsible for their healing.

Fixing means avoiding topics or walking on eggshells to prevent their discomfort. Healing together means having honest conversations even when they're difficult or uncomfortable. Fixing means sacrificing your needs to keep them emotionally stable. Healing together means maintaining your boundaries while offering compassionate support.

You can care deeply about your partner's struggles without making their healing your personal responsibility. Real partnership allows both people to do their own emotional work while supporting each other through it.

Healing doesn't mean they changed, it means you stopped chasing what broke you…
