Therapists in Dallas, TX

Looking for a therapist for your child or adolescent can be daunting. Every child's situation and needs are different. I provide a warm, energetic, compassionate atmosphere to help make my clients and their families feel at ease. Whether that means talking while playing ping pong or talking via telehealth. I believe that when a child is in their element, they are more likely to be receptive to the therapeutic process. This is why our office has several play and activity rooms. I also believe that communication with parents is the key to success, so I communicate frequently with parents via email or with parent meetings.

Do you have a teenager who seems to be struggling or who has gone through some major changes recently? They could be experiencing depression and anxiety. I am here to help. I can offer an assessment and provide guidance on next steps to get your teen back on track. I am also available for crisis intervention and assessment if you have a loved one who seems to be suffering from a mental health condition and you are unsure how to help or what to do. I can help! And, we can come up with the best options and plan of action to make a change.

My specialties include families, teens ages 14-17, and adults (18+) with anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, or challenges related to medical diagnoses. If you're a couple or adult experiencing difficulty in relationships, anxiety, depression, or navigating life transitions, I'd love to help. If you're a teen experiencing difficulties in your relationships, anxiety or depression, or struggling to make the leap to independence, I can help. As a therapist with 20+ years of healthcare experience, and 15 years of experience in the recovery arena, I can help you develop the best tools for your journey.

As a parent, it can be difficult to know what to do when your child or adolescent is experiencing emotional or behavioral difficulties. You may often feel helpless and isolated. I can help. I have had extensive training in the field of play therapy, a developmentally appropriate approach to working with children struggling with a variety of issues. Throughout this process, your child will experience a warm, safe, and accepting environment where these issues can be worked out. I will also work to help you understand your child more and provide you with ways to feel more empowered.

The decision to start therapy can be a difficult one. My honest and relatable style provides a supportive and non-judgmental atmosphere where you can safely begin to develop insight about the connections between your emotions and behavior and improve the quality of all your relationships. I am passionate about working with teens, young adults, woman and parents. With more than 25 years of experience, some of my specializations include anxiety, depression, grief, parent-teen conflict, teen dating, body image, relationship issues, and life transitions. Call me and we can talk about how you can get your life back on track.

Maybe you struggle with depression & feelings of hopelessness or crying spells. Or you might deal with anxiety & intense fears or panic attacks.

You may seek to improve the most important relationships in your life—with your partner, your teenager, your elderly parents, or yourself. We can work toward greater understanding & acceptance of others & yourself. Sometimes the physical, relational, & psychological issues that bring you to therapy are rooted in unprocessed wounds or trauma. We can change your story from pain to healing.

Are you a teen or adult that's analytical, motivated, stressed, high-achieving, hard on yourself & feeling lost? I can help.

Most of my clients are career & success driven, athletes, top performers, leaders, & yet face a ton of self doubt. I believe progress comes from a deeper understanding of self. If you are wanting answers about who you are, to grow more confident, unravel some things about your past, & make movement towards relief, then please reach out.
