One of the mantras I try to live by is: “We can’t change what we can’t name.” I believe you are the expert of your own lived experience. My role is to help you clarify what’s happening—within you and within your relationships—so you feel more grounded, more informed, and better positioned for success moving forward.

Hello! My name is Joab Calvin. I am a graduate student in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and an intern at Amanda Gray Counseling & Supervision. I am working toward my Master of Education (M.Ed.) in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Lamar University. I care deeply about helping people face life’s challenges by offering support, understanding, and practical tools for growth.

​

I believe real change happens when people feel safe, heard, and respected. My style is warm and collaborative, and I use proven methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and person-centered counseling. My goal is to offer a space where clients can be themselves, talk openly about their experiences, and build clarity, confidence, and resilience.​

Hi, I’m Conner Morse! I am a student intern at AGCS, currently pursuing my master’s degree in Counseling at Texas A&M University–Kingsville. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Montana State University Billings.​

​

My counseling approach is primarily grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and humanistic principles. I believe that lasting change begins with developing a deeper understanding of the connection between our thoughts, feelings, and reactions.  I am especially committed to creating an affirming and welcoming environment for queer clients, where they can feel comfortable in a safe space free of judgement.

Jacqui thinks we live in a distracted world, and even when we have people to turn to, finding the time and space to talk can be challenging.
