Welcome to Illuminating Pathways Counseling Services — we’re so glad you’re here, and thank you for stopping by.
Breana Williams, M.Ed., LPC (Texas License #93323), is the founder and lead therapist of Illuminating Pathways Counseling Services. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor, a mother of two boys, the wife of a passionate football coach, and the author of the self-help workbook Restoring Your Inner Glow. Bree brings warmth, clinical insight, and authenticity to her practice — creating a space where clients feel seen, supported, and empowered to grow through what they’re going through.
Bree holds a dual bachelor’s degree in Political Science and Sociology from Ouachita Baptist University, a Master’s in Business Administration from Grand Canyon University, and a Master of Education in School Counseling and Professional Counseling from West Texas A&M University.
Before founding her private practice, Bree worked in education as a teacher, special education professional, and school counselor, supporting students from elementary through high school. Her work included academic advising, emotional support, crisis counseling, and career planning. These experiences continue to inform her work with children, teens, and adults — especially those navigating complex life transitions.
In her private practice, Bree supports individuals facing anxiety, burnout, self-doubt, and emotional overwhelm. Her clinical approach blends Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and emotional regulation techniques — all tailored to fit each client’s unique needs and life experiences.
She also specializes in maternal mental health, supporting individuals through prenatal and postpartum transitions, including postpartum depression, anxiety, and identity shifts. Bree facilitates group counseling sessions for both adolescents and adults, helping clients feel less alone and more connected in their healing journeys.
Through one-on-one sessions, group work, and her writing, Bree’s mission is to help others reclaim their light, find peace in the present, and take meaningful steps toward the future. Whether you're here to rebuild confidence, process pain, or simply feel like yourself again — you are welcome at Illuminating Pathways.
