Meet Our Therapists
Jennifer Hobson, LPC-S
Jennifer Hobson, LPC-S, is a Texas Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor (#69723) and the founder and practice owner of Inspire Center for Counseling. She earned her Master of Science in Counseling Psychology from Nelson University in Waxahachie, Texas, in 2011. Jennifer is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Counseling and Psychological Studies at Regent University.
Jennifer welcomes adults and adolescents who are navigating trauma, anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, and significant life transitions. She understands that beginning counseling can feel vulnerable and that each person brings a story shaped by meaningful relationships, painful experiences, personal beliefs, and deeply held values.
Her approach is warm, trauma-informed, and relational. Jennifer seeks to create a space where clients feel genuinely heard, supported, and safe enough to explore the parts of life that may feel difficult to understand or carry alone. For clients who desire it, she thoughtfully integrates Christian faith into the counseling process.
Jennifer is trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and offers both traditional EMDR therapy and EMDR intensives. Her hope is to walk alongside clients as they better understand what has shaped them, experience meaningful healing, and move forward with greater clarity, freedom, and hope.

With more than 20 years of experience as a high school counselor, Mark has supported thousands of teens and their families through academic pressures, relationship difficulties, emotional challenges, and important life transitions.

Mark understands that beginning counseling may feel unfamiliar or uncomfortable, especially for someone who is not sure what to say or where to begin. His approach is calm, practical, and collaborative. He seeks to create a welcoming space where clients can be themselves, make sense of what they are experiencing, and identify meaningful changes that can help life feel more manageable and fulfilling.
