We started everything in a small art studio in Houston, and our love of humanity and each other grew the practice to expand to our other heart in Texas, San Antonio. The owner, Dr. Amy Rollo, spends half her time in the Houston Heights and the other half right outside of San Antonio on a small lake in Seguin. We have a Lead Clinician taking over San Antonio with deep roots in the amazing city, and would love collaborative, caring, enthusiastic therapists to join her.
As a practice, our culture is LGBTQ+ friendly. We pride ourselves in being able to treat in a systems orientation, so we love to have a counselor with a strong niche’, including play therapy, child therapy, EMDR, couples therapy, sex therapy, and more.
We believe in being the place that can support the whole family, as well as individuals, so we are open to anyone with a strong niche and desire to learn.
We also love treating our emerging adults and 20 somethings!
As a practice, we tend to work with successful, high achievers looking to invest in themselves. Therapists should show up with the same enthusiasm. While understanding diagnostics is a plus, we often work in understanding a person’s story and allowing the client to make sense of it. Most of the time, people just need to be understood for change to take place.
HFC hires therapists wanting to work as a team, collaborate, and build others up.
As we continue to grow to serve our amazing state, we want to make sure that our team shows the beautiful diversity of our amazing state. LGBTQ+, BIPOC, diversity in religion, age, and all diverse backgrounds are encouraged to apply!
