Getting to know Donna Hicks
Hi there, I'm Donna!
I am licensed in Texas with 4 years of professional work experience. I have an associate’s degree in justice administration, a bachelor’s in justice administration with a focus on human services and a minor in psychology, and a Master of Arts in Counseling from Wayland Baptist University. I have experience helping clients cope with addictions, trauma and abuse, anger management, and life changes. I have worked with all levels of addiction, Bexar County Probation, in-patient recovery, wounded transition for military members, domestic violence, and crisis intervention.
My approach
My concept is that no one can judge another person's journey. I primarily utilize motivational interviewing and a person-centered approach to get to the core of issues because the surface is only the symptoms.
My focus
I work with a wide spectrum of clients with multiple layers of concerns. I have experience helping clients cope with addictions, trauma and abuse, anger management, and life changes. I have worked with all levels of addiction, Bexar County Probation, in-patient recovery, wounded transition for military members, domestic violence, and crisis intervention.
My communication style
I believe in a realistic approach through transparency and being authentic. I am a real person, and I want to help with genuine concern for all people.
My journey to therapy
I did not know what my calling was, but I was a medic and thought the natural progression was to become a nurse. The doctors felt that because of my injuries, that would not be a good fit for me, so my school advisor suggested I switch to the master’s program for counseling. I did not realize God closed one door to open another, but here I am, and I wouldn’t give it up for anything.
