Unfortunately, I would not recommend Stephanie D. McKenzie for couple counseling. I struggled with…read morerather or not to write this review, but I think it's worth telling. My partner wanted to give her a try. So we went to see her 3-4 times over the course of 1-2 years. We didn't see her often for two reasons, she was often unavailable and we both have done a horrible job of following through. Most sessions were just casual talking. There didn't seem to be anything organized before we arrived. Some form of homework was typically given. The sessions were done as a couple... there was one session in which he was sent out of the room and she talked to me for 20 minutes. So I genuinely felt like she didn't get to know me, not her fault at all. We just didn't go enough times. Which brings me to my next point... most recently, my partner wanted us both to go again. He emailed her and she told him... there was no need to bring me that I wasn't open to forgiveness. I was shocked. This really hurt me and I really found this to be quite unprofessional because she did not reach out to me at all. Even if I did give off that vibe... it's just not true. I want forgiveness for myself but I've struggled getting there having been hurt badly in the relationship. Hence why we were there. Never in a million years did I expect to get written off for the very thing I wanted help with. I did reach out to her and her response to me was my "energy" never showed an interest to heal. And she wishes I would heal. And "I'll need to do that". So if you're an imperfect being struggling with unforgiveness... this is not a safe place to heal. I would strongly suggest going elsewhere. Update: For clarification. Stephanie did not reach out to me with opportunities to meet as mentioned below.

She absolutely,…read more100% helped me to realize that I could change my life and, truthfully, she saved my life in the process. Dr. Solis-Smith uses parts of Cognitive Behavioral therapy (CBT) in her sessions as well as general talk-therapy. I was honestly at a point in my life where I didn't want to live and I didn't think anything or anyone could help me get out of the dark place I was stuck in. She went above & beyond for me twice a week for 4 months and taught me so much about myself that I'd not realized and gave me the tools that I didn't know I possessed in order to become a better person. She influenced my life so greatly that I can't even surmise it into words. She worked in sync with my psychiatrist at the time & they worked together to come up with a game plan to help me better my own life. She inspired so much in me and taught me so much that I've now graduated from university with a degree in Psychology and plan to attend graduate school next year for Cognitive Behavioral therapy. I would recommend her to anyone in any mental condition because she is an amazing human being, support system & role model. This person helped me save my life.

Well, Petrene was spot on -- it's five years later and my daughter has done a lot of personal growth in the last couple of years, and recently she and I have reconciled. If I hadn't had Petrene's advice, I would not have been as patient and that probably would have been detrimental to the situation. She sees right to the core of a personal situation and helps with not only the emotions, but with the communication issues and the human interactive responses. Amazing. I feel Petrene is a great counselor with second sight.

We all have our stresses: Work, relationships, family, friends ... and you can't always turn to close friends and/or family because A) They're your stress triggers or B) They can't give you unbiased feedback. Especially my family. Opinions, opinions, opinions. Sometimes, you need a professional. Shana Clark is a licensed professional counselor, and she specializes in so many issues: relationships/couples counseling, anger management, career counseling, problem solving, drug/alcohol abuse, grief/loss, anxiety ... I like that she has a spiritual background, and she is one of the few in people in Houston who uses the Thought Field Therapy/Emotional Freedom Therapy (TFT/EFT) and Tapas Acupressure Technique (TAT) aka "tapping" to clear of any negative emotions, energy and thoughts. She's also very honest and doesn't "shrink" you ... she tells it like it is based on professional experience. I dig it.
