Shaye Mueller, LPC, ATR

Counselor, Art Therapist, Owner

Cactus Counseling & Art Therapy is a safe haven for our clients to express, heal, and grow. We offer holistic in person and online counseling services for residents of Houston and in the great state of Texas.

Our mission is to offer compassionate mental healthcare services that are heart-forward and evidence-based. Specializing in trauma and perinatal mental health.

Services

Clients have the choice in each session to engage with Art Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, or opt for traditional talk therapy services. Come Fall 2024, we will be offering group therapy.

Counseling sessions are offered in person or virtually and are tailored to each client’s needs. We will collaborate with you to create a treatment plan that aligns with your needs and goals to help you find relief from your symptoms.

Group therapy provides a unique opportunity to share experiences, gain insights, and receive encouragement from peers in a safe and nurturing environment. Our group sessions are led by an experienced therapist who facilitates meaningful discussions and provides valuable support. Join us to find community, understanding, and collective healing.

Clients are invited to bring art materials into their sessions. Art is used to help deepen the client’s processing and use a different approach to promote healing, growth, and change. All ages are welcome to participate. Prior art knowledge is not required.

Somatic Experiencing is a holistic and body-based approach that helps heal trauma and chronic nervous system dysregulation. Expect to increase awareness of the mind-body connection, learn regulation skills, and heal your nervous system from past trauma.

“And lay it down when you walk through my door. Throw all of it out on the floor. Your sorrow, your beauty, your war. I want it all. Bring your secrets, bring your scars. Bring your glory, all you are. Bring your daylight, bring your dark. Share your silence and unpack your heart.”

You might be wondering- Why Cactus?

Cacti are fierce, resilient, and powerful plants that thrive in the harshest conditions- just like my clients. With the right amount of nurturing, love, and resources, I believe that you can adapt to your surroundings to not just survive, but flourish. Despite what you’ve endured.
