Aaron Leigh Horton builds her counseling practice around something she calls personalized mental health plans — structured, goal-driven work that combines psychoeducation with techniques like CBT, DBT, and therapeutic breathwork to move clients toward real, measurable change. Based in Granbury, Texas, she works with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and personality complexities including borderline, narcissistic, and schizoid presentations, as well as women dealing with narcissistic abuse and attachment difficulties. Sessions are available online, extending her reach across Texas.
For couples and families, Aaron focuses on communication, conflict resolution, and building a shared sense of direction — work that often surfaces in the small, daily friction points, like a partner who stays glued to a phone through dinner while the other sits waiting to actually connect. She approaches personality and identity concerns from developmental and psychodynamic frameworks, bringing depth to issues that aren’t resolved by surface-level coping alone.
Her background spans a B.A. in psychology from the University of Texas at Austin, an M.S. in clinical mental health counseling from Tarleton State University, and a prior career in corporate leadership. She practices under the supervision of Bryan C. Duncan, PhD, LPC-S. Outside the office, she tends a garden, writes, and finds genuine restoration in humor and family life.
