Therapists in McKinney, TX

Waitlisting for June 2024. Hi, I'm Noelle, I'm passionate about helping children, teens and adults be the best versions of themselves. I believe that all people have an innate tendency toward growth. However, growth can be impacted by life events we may not have control over. Noelle will work with you to explore any barriers and roadblocks that have come your way, while also helping you get to know yourself and your strengths. Noelle supports neurodiversity by providing individualized care. Not all brains work the same- and that’s okay, and even great! Noelle uses acceptance, validation and provides advocacy skills where needed.

Children often do not have the words to express what they are thinking or feeling. Traditional talk therapy alone is rarely successful in helping children process difficult life situations. I help children overcome anxiety, depression, and other challenges. I also assist parents in building strong, open relationships with their children. If your child is going through anxiety, sadness, behavior problems, social issues, or life changes (divorce, loss of a loved one, etc.) I am happy to walk along side them in their journey. In addition to working with children, I also see teens and adults.

I primarily approach counseling from a CBT perspective, however, I integrate theoretical approaches (including solution-focused, strengths-based and biblical principles), to better understand aspects of the clients’ problems for effectual treatment. I serve clients from ages 5 through adulthood regardless of their race, nationality, religion, gender, disability or sexual orientation.

People often believe they have failed in some way if they or their child are in need of help. Conversely, it is your willingness to seek counseling, to do whatever is needed to help yourself, your child and your family that demonstrates the depth of your dedication and courageousness toward health. My hope is to provide you and your child an accepting environment, with a priority of safety, to facilitate your family members' ability to express themselves fully. Together, we will explore untapped resources, already possessed by you, to eliminate distress from your lives.

When life gets messy, the path forward can be difficult to see. To help navigate these circumstances, I use an integrative approach to therapy based on what benefits each unique individual or family the most.

It brings me joy to see those who have entrusted me with their care overcome obstacles that once blocked their path forward.

I believe every individual has the potential to achieve success within his/her personal, professional and relationship life.
