Jill Tucker, LPC-S: Co-Founder, Trauma & EMDR Intensive Specialist in Houston

As the Co-founder and Clinical Director of The Flourishing Way, I am committed to helping individuals navigate their journey toward deep healing and authentic connection. With over 20 years of experience, I bring a wealth of knowledge to complex issues, from healing past trauma to understanding complicated family dynamics.

You likely wear a lot of hats and carry the burden of responsibility—for your family, your partner, your kids, your colleagues. Over time, that duty can soften your own voice, leaving you feeling like you’ve lost who you are. If your nervous system is constantly in hyper-drive or struggling with everyday overwhelm, I specialize in helping you find a sense of safety and calm so you can reconnect with your inner self and truly engage with your present life.

My Approach: Focused Healing for Relationships and the Nervous System

My approach is built on empathy, patience, and persistence, offering real tools for lasting change and emotional resilience.

I work exceptionally well with those who want to better their relationships. While I focus mostly on individuals, I have a long history of working with families, couples, and mother-daughter relationships that care deeply for one another but find themselves stuck in unhealthy patterns. I help clients untangle these dynamics and bring a renewed sense of clarity and connection to their most important relationships.

EMDR Intensives:

I am an EMDR-trained therapist and currently focus on providing high-impact, focused care through EMDR Intensivesat our Heights location. This accelerated approach helps clients experience healing from trauma, anxiety, and emotional challenges in a condensed timeframe, without lengthy weekly commitments. I also use principles from DBTand RO-DBT to support emotion regulation and connection.

In our work together, you will gain the self-awareness and confidence needed to meet life’s uncertainties with courage and clarity.

Clinical Consulting, Training, & Speaking

In addition to client care, I provide professional consultation for clinicians on a broad range of topics, including complex clinical cases, guidance on private and group practice dynamics/growth, and navigating other professional challenges in the mental health field.

Community & Professional Speaking

I offer speaking opportunities for local community groups, schools, organizations, and group practices. Previous topics include:

• Adolescent Wellness: Wait Till 8th and Teens and Social Media

• Professional Development: Professional Burnout and LPC-S Clinical Supervision and Ethics

My goal is to use my two decades of experience to foster excellence and growth within our clinical community and the local community we serve.

Community and Finding Balance

I believe the journey of self-discovery is lifelong. Outside of the therapy room, I enjoy staying active and prioritizing family time with my husband, our daughter, and our lovable basset hound. I am also very involved in my daughter’s school community and am well known for my many years of service and collaboration within the local Houston community.

I'm here to walk alongside you as you find your strength, your truth, and your unique path forward.
