About Savannah

Savannah Kizzie is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with four years of clinical experience.

Background and approach

She integrates body, mind, relationships, and meaning into her work, drawing on mindfulness, client-centered techniques, and evidence-based strategies to help people address the roots of stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and major life transitions. Her training includes Internal Family Systems alongside cognitive behavioral and solution-focused methods to guide clients toward practical coping skills and deeper self-understanding.

Her style emphasizes a calm, nonjudgmental atmosphere where curiosity about internal parts and relational patterns supports growth. She combines attachment-informed perspectives and tools from the Gottman Method when relevant to relational concerns, while also offering concrete behavioral strategies for symptoms such as anxiety, grief, caregiver stress, or compassion fatigue.

Savannah tailors sessions to each person’s needs and uses a strengths-oriented approach to build resilience and relief over time.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Internal Family Systems (IFS) centers on exploring and dialoguing with internal parts - the protective, vulnerable, and exiled aspects of someone’s inner world - to reduce internal conflict and build self-leadership. This approach can be helpful for people wrestling with trauma responses, dissociation, or persistent self-criticism. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns of relating formed in close relationships and helps people develop more supported ways of connecting and regulating emotions, which can ease relationship strain and intimacy issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical, skill-based exercises that often reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process; the therapist will work with each client to consider goals, preferences, and what shows promise in early sessions. Together they will tailor methods - for example combining mindfulness with CBT exercises or exploring parts work from IFS alongside attachment-based interventions - so treatment fits the person rather than forcing a single model.

Online formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging offer flexibility for scheduling and allow consistent access to care from wherever a client is located in Texas. These options make it easier to maintain continuity during busy or transitional periods while enabling therapists to use experiential exercises, guided mindfulness, and conversational parts work in ways that support ongoing progress.
