Professional Background:

Hello, I’m Mimi Schultz, a licensed therapist in Houston with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Texas Christian University (2015) and a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of St. Thomas (2019). With over six years of experience, I specialize in helping clients navigate challenges related to anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and life transitions.

My Therapeutic Approach:

I provide a person-centered, empathetic, and supportive environment where clients feel safe to explore their thoughts and emotions. My primary therapeutic modalities include:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): A structured, evidence-based approach that focuses on the relationship between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to promote positive change.
• Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART): An innovative, evidence-based technique that uses eye movements to address issues such as PTSD, anxiety, depression, and phobias.
• Solution-Focused Therapy: A goal-oriented method that empowers clients to develop practical strategies for overcoming challenges.

I believe therapy should meet clients where they are, allowing them to set the pace and bring their unique concerns into the conversation. My ultimate goal is to help clients build resilience, improve coping skills, and foster meaningful change.

Who I Work With:

I work with adolescents, young adults, and adults, addressing a variety of concerns, including:

• Communication difficulties
• Trauma and trauma related events
• Boundary setting
• Managing stress and anxiety
• Developing healthy coping mechanisms

Why I Became a Therapist:

My passion for therapy began in high school when I dreamed of becoming a marriage counselor. During my undergraduate studies, I realized I couldn’t wait to start helping others, which inspired me to pursue a graduate degree in mental health counseling. Today, I’m deeply fulfilled by witnessing my clients’ progress and successes.

Practice Philosophy:

Creating a trusting and judgment-free environment is at the heart of my practice. I prioritize open communication and mutual respect, ensuring every client feels heard and understood. My priority is ensuring every client feels supported and confident in their therapy journey. Your growth and comfort are paramount to me, and I’m committed to fostering a positive therapeutic experience from start to finish. Finding the right therapist is a vital step in your wellness journey, and I’m here to guide you every step of the way. Together, we’ll work to ensure you feel empowered and well-supported.

Personal Insights:

As a proud Houston native, I cherish spending time near water with my husband and two daughters, whether swimming or simply enjoying the view. I also love needlepointing, cheering for TCU and the Astros, and indulging in Tex-Mex—I could eat queso every day! Maintaining my own mental health is a priority, and I believe in the power of self-care and pursuing joy in daily life.
