Expert Counselors: Tricia Beck

Tricia graduated from the University of Houston Graduate School of Social Work in 2000. Over the past 25 years Tricia has worked as a hospice/home health social worker, grief counselor, drug and alcohol counselor, discharge planner, intensive outpatient therapist and a jail mental health practitioner.

Tricia specializes in helping individuals and couples with current struggles and past trauma/loss. During her sessions, she helps her clients achieve hope, happiness, an optimistic outlook on the future and self-love/care. Life can be unfair, it includes family disagreements, work problems and feelings of “I can’t do all this anymore” or “I am so overwhelmed.”

Tricia will help clients identify boundary setting, triggers, and coping skills. In addition, sometimes it is okay to say “no” when it is not in the client’s best interest. Tricia will help teach clients coping skills, mindfulness, ways to move through life struggles and navigate relationships. Clients will enter a therapeutic, safe environment that is non-judgmental and full of hope.

Tricia uses Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Dialectic Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI) and mindfulness to help clients feel empowered. Tricia is currently working with clients 18 years and above through tele-health sessions only in the states of Texas and Arizona. Shadow work can be discussed during session if client would like to pursue this option.

Tricia is studying to become a Life Coach, Menopause Therapist, Yoga Instructor and a certification as a Pre/Postnatal Coach. When Tricia is not working at Symmetry Counseling, she enjoys traveling, massages, exercising, yoga, self-care, and hanging out with her 16-year-old son and 4-year-old Corgi – Tricia has no boundaries when it comes to the pooch, she is working on it!!
