Chanel De La Garza-Harris
Pre-Doctoral Therapist
Chanel was born and raised in a small town in South Texas. She received her Bachelors of Science from The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley with a major in Psychology and a minor in Biochemistry. She is currently pursuing her Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the Chicago School of Professional Psychology. Chanel’s style of therapy is primarily rooted in Cognitive Behavioral interventions (“CBT”). This treatment method utilizes a structured, evidence-based framework to treat pervasive depressed mood and excessive anxiety. In her work, Chanel will partner with clients to understand the connection between their thoughts, feelings and behaviors, and to bring awareness to negative patterns and/or negative core beliefs. Through therapy, Chanel aims to help her patients understand the origins of negative self-beliefs in order to challenge and replace them with positive, more accurate ways of seeing oneself. Clients will also develop the necessary skills and adaptive coping strategies that alleviate stress, reduce suffering and promote well-being. Chanel believes that every individual presents with their own unique challenges in therapy, and she is adept at tailoring therapy to best support each individual patient. In addition to CBT, she will also draw on other therapeutic modalities, including psychodynamic and relational strategies.
Chanel strives to provide a safe, compassionate space where her patients feel understood and comfortable to explore the issues that have brought them to therapy. One of her favorite quotes is: "even in the midst of our greatest strife there are nuggets of wisdom and joy to learn and behold." An optimist by nature, Chanel hopes to help her clients uncover joy in their daily lives, even amid their struggles. Supervised by Jennifer Bradford, PhD

Prior to being at SMU, Jennifer lived in New York City and served as a Staff Psychologist and the Training Director at William Paterson University in New Jersey. Within college counseling, she enjoyed the focus on eating disorder treatment, college mental health, and supervision and training of future professionals in psychology, but she practiced with a more generalist approach providing treatment for the full spectrum of psychological difficulties. She is also an adjunct instructor at Seton Hall University in their online Master’s Degree program in Mental Health Counseling and School Counseling.
Jennifer has been in private practice since 2012. Her clinical areas of interest include anxiety disorders, women’s issues, infertility concerns, eating concerns and mindful eating, and relational issues.

Elizabeth Huber, PhD
Licensed Psychologist / Co-Founder
Dr. Huber is a Licensed Psychologist in private practice in Dallas. She completed her doctorate in clinical psychology at UT Southwestern Medical Center in 2016. She completed her APA-Accredited Pre-Doctoral Internship at both the Eating Disorder Services Unit of Children’s Hospital of Dallas, and Counseling Services at Southern Methodist University in Dallas. Prior to this, Liz completed a BA with honors in Plan II and Spanish at the University of Texas in Austin (2001) and a Masters of Psychology at the University of Dallas (2012).
Liz pursued a career in finance in both New York City and Dallas before realizing her calling in the field of psychology. Her experience in the corporate world informs her work as a therapist, particularly in partnering with patients to help them achieve balance between their personal lives and professional aspirations. She believes that fulfillment can often be found at the intersection of passion and aptitude, and she strives to help her patients uncover and nurture their intrinsic talents to discover joy and purpose in their personal and professional lives.
Dr. Huber’s training and areas of clinical interest pertain to women’s health and include anxiety, depression, eating disorders, antepartum and postpartum psychopathology, fertility-related concerns and difficulties in relationships. Her approach to therapy is primarily psychodynamic in nature. In psychodynamic psychotherapy, a client partners with the therapist to explore those aspects of the self that are not fully known and to develop insight into past experiences and relationships. Dr. Huber incorporates cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to help clients learn to tolerate painful thoughts and feelings, and to view them from a more compassionate and non-judgmental stance. She believes that suffering can provide an opening into a deeper understanding of one’s internal world and the unconscious patterns that have led us to our current uncomfortable dynamics, relational patterns or symptoms. While symptom reduction is both a goal and often a byproduct of psychodynamic psychotherapy, Dr. Huber’s work with patients prioritizes increased self-awareness, satisfaction in relationships, integrated sense of self and recognition of intrinsic gifts and strengths. Dr. Huber’s goal is to graduate patients from therapy with the confidence and self-reliance that will enable them to lead richer, more joy-filled lives.
