Hello to everyone!
I’m a licensed counselor in Texas with 30 years in the areas of identification of core values, self-esteem/knowing what really matters in your life, consistently making real decisions, not pseudo ones, brief therapy, family organization in the home, resilience training, issues of identity/ anxiety and relationships/marriages.
In the area of relationships/marriages, for example, so many people cannot come to any decision as to whether to go or stay. They look at pros and cons and sometimes these come out rather evenly. One question which you might ask, however, is a diagnostic one, not one where you tally up a score: do you spend more time thinking of getting out of the relationship rather than just relating. If you are spending more time thinking of getting out, than actually relating, you might want to take that seriously. Another diagnostic question concerns your core values. Does this other person/partner really reflect and agree with your core values going forward or is a great part of the relationship experienced as ambivalent? Ambivalence is one of the major sources of unhappy marriages. And your life needs to be based on good decisions.
I utilize Jungian Depth Psychology as well as current Solution-based approaches, and when applicable, Dream Amplification. Many people find their dreams a source of guidance and a legitimate tool, especially with the help of a trained therapist, during crises, arriving at crossroads, and illness, separations and break-ups. Everyone dreams in 90 minute cycles through the night (although drugs can interrupt these cycles) and understanding the real guidance offered is one of the primary tools for trusting the self.
While I am very interested in the source of a person’s suffering, I look at what the person is doing now, at the present moment, which keeps the old, outdated responses in place. I will try many things to help a client and, at some point, I do expect some change to occur, even if reflected in just a small, but pivotal step Change can sometimes happen remarkably quickly; other times it takes awhile, and patience is required.
Most of us would agree that standing at that” fork in the road” too long can bring more depression and confusion than was bargained for. I would like to help you create the freedom which comes from carefully listening to yourself, reframing your feelings and styles of reacting, then taking the steps which feel comfortable to you to get you to a place of well-being and confidence. It always makes a difference to have a non-judgmental and patient person on your side, until you can be non-judgmental and patient with yourself.
From Dr. C.G. Jung: “My own understanding is the sole treasure I possess, and the greatest.”
Take care,
Robin Campbell,
L.P.C/Depth Psychotherapist

Sheri Campbell is a licensed professional counselor in Texas with 34 years of clinical experience. She holds a Texas counseling license (license number 9578), a credential that indicates she has met the state’s training and practice standards to provide clinical counseling. She trained at the University of Texas at Austin and continued her graduate studies at Pacifica Graduate Institute in Santa Barbara, California, and has worked in an agency setting for seven years before establishing a private practice and offering workshops.
Her therapeutic approach integrates Jungian depth psychology with contemporary solution-focused methods, and she also uses formal dream analysis when appropriate to help people find guidance during crises, crossroads, illness, separations, and break-ups. Sheri is skilled in EFT tapping as a tool for releasing trauma and alleviating depressive states. She pays particular attention to helping introverts and highly sensitive people navigate an often hyper-extroverted world, and she supports artists and writers through fears and the early, judgment-free stages of the creative process. She also assists individuals transitioning back from spiritual retreats.
Sheri’s clinical specialties include stress and anxiety, relationship difficulties, self-esteem and identity concerns, coping with life changes, family dynamics, grief, depression, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. While she explores the sources of a person’s suffering, she focuses on present behaviors and patterns that keep outdated responses in place. She draws on practical diagnostic questions in work with couples and individuals – for example, noticing whether someone spends more time thinking about leaving a relationship than actually relating, or whether a partner aligns with the person’s core values – because ambivalence and indecision are often at the heart of relationship distress.
She aims to help clients make clear, values-based decisions, build resilience, and take small but pivotal steps toward change. Sheri expects progress to occur – sometimes quickly, sometimes gradually – and she supports patience and steady practice as part of that process. Her work emphasizes careful self-listening, reframing emotional responses, and moving at a pace that feels comfortable toward greater well-being and confidence. She often reminds people that having a nonjudgmental, patient guide can make a decisive difference until they can offer that same stance to themselves.
