Hi, I’m Penne.

At the heart of my work is a deep belief in the power of relationships—how they shape us, challenge us, and ultimately offer the space for healing and growth. I founded Hillside Counseling out of a desire to create a place where both clients and clinicians can be supported in meaningful, intentional ways.

While I absolutely value leading and mentoring within the practice, my true calling remains in the therapy room—working with couples and individuals as they navigate trauma, reconnect in their relationships, and begin to experience something different.

Hi, I’m Brittany. I am based out of our Old Town Burleson location, and in my role as Clinical Director, I also support clients and teams across our Hillside locations.

Through my work and life experiences, I’ve come to deeply value the capacity of the human heart—to heal, to grow, and to find meaning even in difficult places. I strive to create a space where you feel supported, understood, and not alone in the process. However I can help, I am here for you.

Hi, I’m James. I’m based out of our Old Town Burleson location and offer both in-person and virtual sessions.

Over the past 14 years, I’ve worked with individuals navigating a wide range of life challenges through both education and counseling. I understand that getting started can feel uncertain, and I place a strong emphasis on helping you feel comfortable, supported, and at ease from the very beginning.

Hi, I am Krystin Colgrove. I work out of the Old Town Burleson Location and do In-Person and Virtual Sessions as well.

I’m passionate about valuing clients as a WHOLE person and not a diagnosis. There’s just something fundamental about being accepted as who you are as a person. It’s usually our coping and adaptive ways that no longer serve us that really need a helping hand. I offer that space and assistance to help you take a moment to look and reflect while together we move forward.

Hi, I’m Michele. I work out of our Old Town Burleson location.

I specialize in couples counseling, individual trauma work, and addiction. I believe counseling is a partnership that grows through your willingness to engage, supported by guidance, care, and encouragement along the way.

Hi, I’m Sarah. While I’m based in our Old Town Burleson office, my role as Operations Director often has me moving between locations supporting the broader Hillside team. When I’m not focused on operations, I’m doing what I love most – working with clients.

Becoming a marriage and family therapist felt like a natural extension of who I am—I’ve always been drawn to understanding how people heal, connect, and continue to grow, even through difficult experiences. We all want to thrive, and I believe curiosity is one of our greatest teachers.

Hi, I’m Hannah. I work out of the Burleson Renfro Office.

I believe there is real power in vulnerability—in allowing yourself to reach out when life feels too heavy to carry on your own. Healing is rarely linear, and often we find ourselves navigating challenges without the tools we need. My work is centered on creating a space where your experiences are honored, your voice is valued, and you feel supported as you move through your journey.

It would be an honor to walk alongside you.

Hi, I’m Michael. I work out of the Old Town Burleson location and offer In-Person and Virtual Sessions for anyone seeking counseling in Texas.

I believe in the uniqueness of all of us and the importance of respect in holding those differences in a non-judgmental space. I work with adults, couples, LGBTQ+ community, those with religious trauma, and other trauma seeded and relational issues.

Hi, I’m Loran. I work out of the Burleson Renfro office and also do virtual sessions for your convenience.

I’m passionate about working with individuals navigating challenges such as PTSD, depression, anxiety, and grief. I am LGBTQIA+ and neurodiversity affirming, and I strive to create a space where you can show up authentically—without pressure to be anything other than who you are. My goal is to offer a supportive, respectful environment where you feel seen, heard, and understood.

Hi, I’m Katherine. I work out of the Old Town Burleson office offering in person and telehealth.

I believe that each person’s story matters—and that counseling should feel like a space where you can show up as you are, without pressure or judgment. As a person-centered counselor, I focus on helping you reconnect with your own strengths and sense of direction.

Hi, I’m Ashley. I work out of our Burleson office and offer both in-person and virtual sessions—whichever is best for you.

Hi, I am Jaree. I work out of our Old Town Burleson Office.

I have experienced the power of counseling both as a therapist and as a client in my life. I personally know how counseling can make all the difference. I would consider it a privilege to assist and guide you in your counseling journey.

Hi, I’m Mark. I work out of our Burleson Renfro Office.

Each of us goes through phases of development from one phase of life to another. Every phase brings on new challenges that depend upon our past ability to handle them and our ability to learn new ways of coping. Getting a little help deepens our reserves.

Hi, I’m Jesstine. I’m based in our Burleson Renfro office and offer both in-person and virtual sessions.

I believe that while we are all human and share similar needs for growth and connection, each person’s experience is uniquely their own. I draw from a variety of approaches, including EMDR, to support you in a way that fits you. I’ll meet you where you are, and we can begin from there—together.

Hi, I’m Josh. I work out of the Burleson Renfro office and offer both in-person and virtual sessions.

Hi, I’m Megan. I work out of our Mansfield Office.

If you’re here, there’s likely something in your life that feels painful, heavy, or difficult to carry alone. My goal is to walk alongside you and help you begin to hold that pain differently—with more support, understanding, and steadiness.

Hi, I am Tamara Lee. I work out of our Mansfield office and also offer telehealth appointments, as well as in-person.

I know what is like to look around trying to find yourself. They say not all those who wander are lost. And, I agree… but we could use a guide. I am here to help… as your professional guide.

Hi, I’m Victoria. I work out of our Mansfield office.

You don’t have to do this alone. Together, we can explore what you’re going through with curiosity and care, creating space for healing, strength, and a greater sense of peace.

Hi, I’m Megan. I work out of our Mansfield location and offer both in-person and telehealth sessions.

I’m passionate about walking alongside people as they explore their own path of self-discovery. Having done this work myself, I value creating a space where you can better understand your thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and behaviors—and begin making choices that feel more aligned with who you are and what you want for your life and relationships.

Hello, I am Jose! I work out of the Mansfield office. I offer in-person and tele-health appointments, for your convenience.

There’s never a wrong time or age to begin counseling—only the point where you decide it matters. Whatever “now” looks like in your life, it can be a meaningful place to begin. I work with individuals across ages, identities, sexual orientations, and backgrounds, and my goal is to walk alongside you—supporting and assisting. I am looking forward to meeting you.

Hey there, I’m Michaela! I work out of the Mansfield Office – I offer In-Person and Virtual sessions.

Sometimes life can feel like you’re just moving from one space to the next—trying to figure things out as you go. Instead of facing that alone, I’d love to be on your team—walking alongside you, step by step, as you navigate what’s in front of you and begin to feel more confident in where you’re headed.

Hi, I’m Jessica. I work out of our Mansfield office and offer both in-person and virtual sessions.

Hi, I am Elissa Jeter. I work in the Virtual Branch and offer telehealth sessions for anyone seeking counseling in Texas.

My favorite word while in counseling is “Challenge.” I invite you to look at different aspects of your life- habits, thought processes, relationships etc – and challenge whether they are more helpful or hurtful to you.

Hi! I’m Kathy McGinnis. I am based out of the Burleson Renfro office and work within Hillside’s Virtual Branch, offering telehealth sessions for those seeking counseling.
