Why Southlake Residents Choose Schuster Counseling Group
Finding a therapist who truly gets what you're going through, and has the specialized training to actually help, can feel impossible. At Schuster Counseling Group, our team brings together advanced clinical skills and deeply relatable care. That combination is harder to find than it should be.

We provide bariatric psychological support that goes beyond the medical checklist. And we understand postpartum and maternal mental health at a clinical level, not just a surface one.
Clients consistently tell us that working with our team feels different. We're direct, warm, and genuinely invested. We blend neuroscience with practical tools and deep relational work. You'll feel safe, understood, and not judged. And you'll know quickly that we know what we're doing.
Who We Work With
Our group practice serves adults, teens, and women dealing with a wide range of concerns. Some of the people who tend to thrive in our care include:
Trauma Survivors: You've been carrying old wounds from abuse, loss, or painful relationships for too long. You want to stop feeling stuck and finally feel safe in your own body again.
Anxious Overachievers: High-functioning on the outside, burning out on the inside. Perfectionism, chronic stress, and boundary issues are running the show. You need tools to calm the mental noise without sacrificing your drive.
Perinatal and Postpartum Clients: Pregnancy, birth trauma, identity shifts, and the emotional chaos of early parenthood deserve specialized support. You need validation without judgment from someone who actually understands.
Bariatric and Health Journey Clients: Weight loss surgery affects every part of your life. Whether you're preparing for surgery or navigating post-operative challenges, we provide compassionate support that addresses the emotional work, not just the physical.
Time-Starved Professionals: You know you need therapy but can't commit to weekly sessions for months. Our EMDR Intensives offer accelerated, deep work in a condensed format.
What We Help With
Our Southlake-area clients come to us with concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma (acute and complex), PTSD, postpartum mood and anxiety disorders, chronic stress, burnout, emotional dysregulation, self-worth issues, grief, major life transitions, family stress, relationship difficulties, and pre and post-bariatric challenges.
We use evidence-based modalities including EMDR, IFS-informed therapy, CBT, DBT, narrative therapy, somatic and mind-body approaches, attachment-based frameworks, and strengths-based perspectives. Treatment is personalized to what actually works for you, not a rigid protocol.
Online and In-Person Sessions
Schuster Counseling Group offers both online therapy and in-person sessions for clients in the Southlake area. Online therapy provides flexibility, eliminates commute time, and lets you engage from wherever you're most comfortable. In-person sessions are available for those who prefer face-to-face connection.
Our online platform is secure, HIPAA-compliant, and easy to use. Many clients find that online sessions fit their lives better, especially when balancing demanding careers or young children. Either way, you receive the same high-quality, specialized care.
What to Expect
Starting therapy can feel like a big step. We've made the process as simple as possible.
Before Your First Session: You can schedule an optional free 15-minute consultation to ask questions and see if we're the right fit. Online onboarding through Sessions Health handles all paperwork, consents, and scheduling in one place. Most clients have already chosen a therapist from our website whose specialties match their needs.
Your First Session: This is about getting to know each other. Your therapist will learn about your story, understand what's working and what's not, clarify your goals, and start mapping out a treatment plan. It's a conversation, not an interrogation.
Ongoing Care: Expect consistent sessions (weekly or intensive format), evidence-based and personalized treatment, secure messaging for coordination, and a therapist who is responsive and genuinely invested. Goals evolve as healing evolves. Homework is optional and flexible.
