Therapists in Dallas, TX

Currently accepting new clients. Feel free to contact me by phone or email. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I recognize that everyone goes through times in their life when they need to reach out for help. My goal as a counselor is to cultivate a warm and safe environment that offers a space for growth and positive change without judgement. I utilize an integrative approach, incorporating elements of multiple theoretical approaches, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Existential Therapy. I believe in meeting the client where they're at in life, and showing respect for the hard work that they put into their recovery.

Life can throw us some rough curveballs, and it's during these moments that we might find ourselves feeling overwhelmed, lost, or stuck. My passion lies in guiding clients through these lonely times, offering a warm and empathetic space where healing can begin. My existential counseling approach is rooted in the belief that every person is unique and deserves a tailored therapeutic experience. Instead of simply putting a bandage on your concerns, let’s find what is causing them and heal from the source. This counseling style stems from my favorite quote: "A fool pulls the leaves, a brute chops the trunk, but a sage pulls the roots".

If you have experienced anxiety, depression, addiction, or previous trauma there is help. Therapy will allow you to move towards a more fulfilling way of life and help you learn that you are complete and strong; that you have the ability to overcome the challenges keeping you from reaching your full potential.

Hello everyone, I'm Azadeh, also known as Azi. With nearly a decade of experience as a psychotherapist, I've worked with clients of diverse ages and backgrounds. My focus is on assisting individuals dealing with anxiety and depression, guiding them to discover their inner strength for a happier self. Certified as a trauma and anxiety clinician (CCTP and CCATP), I draw inspiration from quotes like Mary Oliver's "Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?" and “Breathing in, I calm my body. Breathing out, I smile. Dwelling in the present moment, I know this is the only moment.” Thich Nhat Hahn.

Hi there, I am Clarissa! I know it takes a lot of courage and vulnerability to seek counseling services, so I am glad that you found my page! I have had the joy of working in various mental health settings, like traditional talk therapy, women’s health clinics and non-profit organizations. My clinical experience has given me the opportunity to work with children, adolescents, adults, and couples. I also help clients navigate complicated grief and loss, trauma, depression, anxiety, life transitions, family/relationship, and self-esteem issues.

You're not a cookie, and I am not a cookie-cutter therapist. Every person is unique, and my counseling approach is very much tailored to your specific needs. For most people, counseling may be a last resort, one final effort after they’ve tried everything else. Some worry that seeking therapy means they’ve failed; and for others, the idea of therapy is just plain scary or not the way they were “taught to deal with things”. Even so, the fact that you’re reading this means you want to take back control and begin creating the life you really want. Well, you’ve come to the right place!

We all are capable of living happy and healthy lives. Over the years, I have supported the diverse needs of my clients through the strength of the therapeutic relationship, nurturing the trust and acceptance required for positive change. I consider it an honor to embark on this journey with you, respecting your experience as it has provided a foundation for healing. I would like to help guide you in discovering personal balance and individualized self-worth, as we work to reveal the seemingly lost or hidden strengths buried within.

You're going through a rough spot & don't quite feel like yourself. Sometimes you struggle with toxic shame, a harsh inner critic, & abandonment fears. You're not quite sure why, but sometimes you bounce between feelings of anxiety, overwhelm, & depression. Sometimes relationships seem difficult & might leave you feeling worthless & confused. You might have been diagnosed with anxiety, depression, PCOS, IBS/IBD, ADD, ADHD, or OCD. You suspect something else might be the culprit. Your childhood wasn't ideal, & you're curious how it affects you today. You want to explore the past but not get stuck in it.

Life is complex – often filled with positive experiences and also times of facing challenges. At times, it can feel overwhelming to manage some of those challenges on your own, and therapy can be a great source of support. I seek to create a space where you can understand more about yourself, the current challenges you are facing, and feel empowered in reaching your personal goals, hopes, and dreams. Therapy is most beneficial when you feel a sense of partnership and ownership in your process, from the first meeting, in setting your goals for therapy, and in setting a pace that supports your needs, healing, and growth.

Are you overwhelmed, lonely, or adjusting to changes in your life? Sometimes our journeys require us to pause, seek support, and discover a greater understanding and awareness of ourselves, our families, and our community. We are presented with the challenge to make meaning out of our life situations and discover or create new options.

If you've been struggling and feeling lost and hopeless about how to turn things around for yourself, it may feel impossible to figure out how to begin to heal and move forward in your life. Feelings of sadness, confusion, and anxiety can feel overwhelming, and you may worry that you will never feel happy and whole again. We are here to restore your hope and offer support, guidance, and understanding. We'll work with you to start building a path and a life towards happiness, success, and fulfillment in a warm and nonjudgemental atmosphere.

Sensitivity and compassion, based on acceptance of any of life's painful circumstances, is my passionate aproach to therapy. I work with individuals, couples, families, and groups. Whatever pain you are experiencing; depression, anxiety, substance abuse, grief, relationship issues in families or couples, divorce, family of origin issues, unhealthy communication, work issues, alcololism, or any addiction that is destroying your life, and the need for self confidence or emotional maturity. The pain of each issue can be addressed, worked through, relieved and released. Change is possible!

When real life hits...I work with clients who are dealing with complicated real life issues: anger management, depression, anxiety, eating disorders, marital problems, adolescent issues and behavioral problems, chemical dependency, divorce recovery, trauma recovery, addictions and compulsive behaviors, and behavioral issues, providing prenatal and postpartum counseling.

I’m skilled at wading into real life pain and struggles including conflict patterns, depression, anxiety, anger and irritability, bereavement, self-doubt, directionlessness and indecision, fear and insecurity, and suicidal thinking. I work with individuals and couples who are struggling and need support, hope, and a helping hand in becoming self-aware.

Retirees exploring life after a career, young adults trying to find their way, people struggling with feelings of depression and anxiety, and people searching for meaning: these are just some groups I enjoy working with. Nobody is immune to life's difficulties, and everybody faces trials such as stress and anxiety, among many others. The COVID pandemic has been a significant trial for everyone. You're not alone in your struggle to adjust. The fact that you're reading this means that you've already taken the first step to managing and improving your life.

ACCEPTING NEW PATIENTS. TELEHEALTH AND FACE TO FACE. My approach to counseling focuses on how the influences of the past affect the decisions and interactions you are having today. Throughout our therapy, together, you and I will look at the different aspects of your personality, how you were raised, and the messages you received from you parent(s), and how you functioned in the family system. In addition, both of us will work on counseling goals, which will govern the direction of your counseling process.
