Asperger's Syndrome Therapists in 75080

Hello! Whether you are needing help with the overwhelming process of finding a counselor or are ready to get started I’d love to help. I provide a non-judgemental environment to express your feelings and learn positive coping mechanisms to succeed and gain self-awareness providing self growth. I earned my doctorate degree in Counseling from Texas A&M University-Commerce where I received specialty training in Play Therapy, Activity Therapy, Child-Adolescent-Adult Therapy, Group Therapy, and Family Counseling. I specialize in working with children through adults in helping them grow through mental health issues and life changes.

First off, I would like to acknowledge how brave you are for taking the first steps towards positive change and growth. I understand everyone’s situation is unique, and this process can feel overwhelming. I subscribe to a holistic perspective of counseling and work with each person on an individual basis to focus on their own needs. Together we can create healthy coping skills, build self-esteem, and work to alleviate those stressful moments in your life. When given a safe, nonjudgmental environment, everyone has the power to be who they want to be, even when life feels out of control!

Relationships are tough, even more with depression, anxiety, trauma or neurodiversity. Maybe you’ve gotten through tough times, but now are depleted. You were accepting of differences, but now lack patience, or perhaps betrayals, drinking, even social awkwardness became too much? I help adults improve communication, and learn to repair & forgive in relationships. It’s time you are heard, understood, cared for - even if affair repair or addictions are happening. My website outlines specialization in neurodiversity (ADHD, autism ) couples counseling. Let me guide you to stop those hurtful patterns, so healing & love are a priority.

Getting help to untangle and navigate through this time is the first step. I can help you have better relationships within your family and with others. Finding your authentic self and expressing your needs brings benefits to your life in so many ways. Parenting, communicating with a significant other, and dealing with stress, anxiety or depression can be challenging. Together we can work to reduce or eliminate problematic patterns of behavior preventing you from living the life you desire.

Do you find that you have always felt different or highly sensitive? Are you anxious and overwhelmed in social situations or maybe noting that you have sensory sensitivities, or processing issues that make certain interactions challenging? This can be very alienating and exhausting to manage and can lead to self esteem issues and challenges like anxiety, depression, and increased instances of trauma. You may already have a diagnosis such as Autism, ADHD, Schizophrenia or Bipolar. In my therapy, I pull away from harmful "cure" based approaches, and instead, into approaches that nurture self-acceptance and healing.

I provide Life Coaching for adults with Autism/IDD. Do you have goals in mind but are looking for extra resources and encouragement to reach them? Or perhaps need help developing goals to get out of a rut? I help individuals who want to: navigate college, gain employment, improve interpersonal skills and connections, manage stress, live more independently, learn healthy habits... and so much more!

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in private practice. I am also a Licensed Counselor Supervisor and Registered Play Therapy Supervisor. I earned my Masters of Science degree at the University of North Texas, and received advanced training in Play Therapy, Expressive Arts and Filial Therapy. I have more than 18 years of experience working with children and families. I specialize in working with Preschool age children and their parents to address concerns regarding emotional and social development and behavioral issues while enhancing the parent-child relationship. I am also passionate about working with pre-adolescents and adolescents. Counseling in adolescence is beneficial to facilitate healthy coping skills and self-expression. I also specialize in addressing the psycho-therapeutic needs of individuals with eating disorders, women with postpartum depression, and families who have experienced the death of a loved one.

Feeling overwhelmed, unhappy, anxious, stressed? Frustrated, exhausted, angry with yourself, children, your spouse? Do you feel that your relationships with your family members are not what they should be? Issues that may affect your or a family member include anger, anxiety, depression, sibling or parental conflicts, a learning difference such as ADHD, Autistic Spectrum Disorder or a past traumatic experience. I will help you to develop the understanding, skills and strategies needed to better equip yourself and your family to deal with particular circumstances or stressful transitions.

Sometimes, the smallest steps can lead to the biggest change! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor, Registered Play Therapist-Supervisor, and Experienced-Registered Yoga Teacher 200 Hour, and Yoga Alliance Continuing Education Provider. I have been providing services in the DFW area since 2007, including services for children, adults, and families. Through a warm and caring approach, I can help you find within yourself the positive qualities to help you feel empowered. I can help you understand yourself and/or your child more fully, to be ready to face the big and little challenges that life can throw your way.

Nothing in life is one size fits all; therapy is no exception. My first priority is to establish a trusting relationship with you, then together create goals tailored to your individual needs. As humans, we tend to shy away from uncomfortable, unwanted, or overwhelming feelings/thoughts. We all develop habits to cope; sometimes those habits may no longer be helpful. In a non-judgmental and safe environment, we will work together, unlock your potential and create the change you desire. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor and fully trained in EMDR in Texas.

Welcome to Beckloff Behavioral Health Center! We're a counseling and educational center focused on helping kids, teens, families, young adults and adults. And a whole lot more! We teach social skills to children and teens, helping with self-esteem and confidence building. And, of course, always, in the context of the family....working to help the child and teen to be a functioning member of the family. We want the entire family to benefit, and give special care to help parents find ways to help their kid. We work with many issues, including teen issues, adult concerns, issues with anxiety, depression, ADHD, and spectrum disorders.

Life has a way of putting us in boxes and layering expectations on every facet of our identity. It’s tiring, it’s overwhelming, and it limits the joy we find in our day to day. You don’t have to subscribe to these roles that blunt you, though! The perfectionism, anxiety, depression and imposter syndrome don’t have to define you and you definitely don’t have to dismantle it alone. You’ll lead me through a trail that you’ve walked before and I’ll point out the landmarks that you’ve become numb to. I’ll point out new paths you could take, but you always have control in deciding whether you try a new way or not.

As a counselor specializing in anxiety, depression, OCD, behavioral issues, ADHD, insomnia, TBI, and memory challenges, I'm here to empathetically listen and support you on your journey. I value clients who are motivated to engage in a collaboration, aiming to cultivate self-regulation and coping skills that can enhance their daily lives. I seek clients who are posed for positive transformation but may lack the necessary tools. I am drawn to those who share an eagerness to enhance both cognitive functioning and emotional regulation, driven by a desire to be a better person, spouse, parent, sibling or supportive person to others.
