Miranda Finken, LCSW, provides compassionate and evidence-based therapy to adults and seniors in Texas, helping individuals navigate challenges such as anxiety, depression, and PTSD/trauma. She specializes in supporting clients through major life transitions, including grief and later-life adjustments, with a focus on fostering resilience and emotional well-being. Through a personalized approach, Miranda integrates proven therapeutic techniques to empower clients in building healthier coping strategies and improving their overall mental health. With a deep passion for addressing ADHD, substance use concerns, and bipolar disorder, Miranda is committed to helping individuals regain a sense of control and stability in their lives. She understands the complexities of these conditions and tailors her approach using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Mindfulness to support meaningful progress. Whether working with individuals facing addiction challenges or helping those with mood disorders develop effective coping mechanisms, Miranda provides a non-judgmental space for healing and growth. Miranda serves a diverse population, including first responders, military veterans, and LGBTQ+ individuals, offering culturally competent care that acknowledges the unique experiences of each client. She provides individual, couples, and family therapy, helping clients strengthen their relationships and navigate interpersonal challenges. Utilizing approaches such as Exposure Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), she supports clients in overcoming fears, managing distress, and fostering personal growth. Outside of her professional life, Miranda enjoys expressing her creativity through painting and upcycling furniture, as well as exploring thrift stores in search of hidden treasures. As a devoted dog mom to Tootsie and Toffee, she finds joy in training and bonding with her pups. She also cherishes time with her family, creating lasting memories.
