Therapists in Dallas, TX

Hello! I’m Alex, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with experience working with adults, emerging adults, and adolescents in individual, group, and family settings. I am a queer-identified, HAES aligned, neurodiversity affirming, and LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist. In our space, it is my goal to provide a warm, compassionate, and welcoming place where you can feel safe to share about whatever is coming up for you. I’m passionate about working with women, LGBTQIA+ adults and adolescents, neurodivergent individuals, and emerging adults.

Mental health therapy is a intimate collaboration in self-discovery, relationship preservation, mental health maintenance, and relief of suffering. It is my job to center you and meet you in your challenges (stress, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, self criticalness, etc.). I provide support to individuals, partners, and families who are motivated towards greater understandings of their experiences in order to find peace and/or heal connections in their relationship with themselves and others.

Are you looking for a compassionate, safe space to process and heal from difficult events that have impacted your life? Or a place to process family and relational dynamics? As a specialist in this area, I can provide professional guidance and support to assist you through this process. I work with individuals, families (e.g. siblings, first-generation children, and parents), and professionals who have experienced life's hardships, pain, and trauma. By working together, we can strive towards recognizing and fulfilling your aspirations, while equipping you with the vital resources to foster innovative perspectives and habits.

Finding the right therapist can feel like an impossible task when you're struggling. I can help get you started quickly in the right direction. I offer a free 15 minute phone consultation to help you determine whether my style is a good fit for you. You are not alone in this. Each of our paths may look different but change and growth is always possible. Let me help you get where you want to go. I will work with you to help you define your goals and take steps that allow for the health and well-being you deserve.

Welcome! With over 8 years of experience, my goal is to provide intentional and quality therapeutic services. I am licensed and trained to work with individuals of all ages over a variety of concerns. With an open, non-judgmental, and evidence based approach, I believe that we can work together to create an ideal environment for your healing and growth. Together, through thoughtful collaboration, we can move through hard things!

My purpose is to guide and facilitate my clients in discovering the goodness and tenderness that we all possess inside ourselves. I work from a mindfulness-based practice of "being with what is," while teaching clients how to utilize their body as an ally in their healing journey. I provide counseling for individuals, couples, teens and families. In person or via Skype or phone.

Hello. As a therapist practicing for over 15 years I consider it an honor to walk beside my clients as they approach their struggles. Life is hard. It's sad, lonely, aggravating and completely relentless sometimes. We all need a nonjudgmental ear to aid in our own understanding of what might have us seemingly stuck.

As a therapist, I want to help you develop a life worth living. We will work together to set goals, learn new coping skills, implement new behaviors, and explore values so that you can build a life that you are passionate about. In the words of Marsha Linehan, creator of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, I believe, "the most caring thing a therapist can do is to help clients change in ways that bring them closer to their own ultimate goals."

Hello! My name is Antoinette Martinez. I founded Nourish Play Therapy LLC in 2015 to give children, teens, and their families a safe place to move towards social and emotional health and wellness. I combine play therapy with art, mindfulness, EMDR Therapy, and SandPlay to help children understand their thoughts, feelings, impulses, and needs. I also help kiddos discover their strengths and grow in self-control and responsibility. I have experience in treating life changes, trauma, abuse, neglect, self-injurious behaviors, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, adhd, autism spectrum, developmental delays, school adjustment, divorce and separation, and other behavioral concerns.

Are you feeling unsure about how to handle new situations or resolve old problems? Feeling beaten down or overwhelmed by life? Do you feel as though your emotional imbalance is getting in the way of relationships, work, or your physical health? Working with an experienced professional can help you navigate the ups and downs on your life's path with more ease and acceptance, allowing you to make positive, lasting changes. My practice offers psychotherapy and wellness presentations for adults seeking greater clarity, balance, and contentment in their lives. Are you curious to see what changes could happen for you?

Whether you are coping with a difficult past, worrying about an uncertain future, or desiring to achieve at a higher level, therapy can help. I offer evidence-based treatment for anxiety and depression (CBT), expertise in treating ADHD in adolescents and adults, coaching for parents or partners of individuals with ADHD, relationship skills for couples or individuals in a difficult relationship, evidence-based treatment for perfectionism, evidence-based treatment for trauma, mindfulness techniques, or life or career transition or stress.

Oftentimes, people go through phases in life of feeling overwhelmed, stuck or hopeless. You are not alone. Counseling can offer you the tools to live the life you desire. My approach to therapy is rooted in helping you increase self-awareness by working collaboratively to unpack and unblock the barriers preventing you from living in wholeness. I offer support, encouragement and empowerment in a warm, non-judgmental environment conducive to growth and change.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor in the state of Texas and have been in practice for 18 years. I have earned a BA in Psychology, and a Masters of Science in Counseling Psychology. Psychotherapy and Counseling are my passion, and study them unceasingly. I am inspired by both Western psychologies and Eastern philosophies. My clients are worldwide from a multitude of cultures and subcultures, ethnicities, ages, genders, sexual orientations, and emotional, psychological, and relational difficulties. The one thing that interconnects us all IS suffering. Mental health and wellbeing are practices, the more the better.

My clients are burned-out peacemakers suffering from anxiety, depression, and self-esteem issues. They put others before themselves and struggle to set boundaries. Many had difficult childhoods where their emotional needs weren't fully met and may struggle with ongoing difficult family relationships with their parents and extended families. I provide individual, couples, and family therapy both virtually and in-person.

I am passionate about helping clients find the awareness, insight, and resilience they need to overcome challenges and live a joyful, meaningful, and fulfilling life. My approach in counseling is based on ensuring you feel you are in a supportive space so you can explore your current thoughts and feelings, process past experiences, and envision and achieve your goals. Clients describe me as calm, caring, and understanding. My goal is to offer fresh perspectives to those seeking change along with the collaboration, skills, and tools needed to create a path forward.

Making the decision on which therapist to work with is based on many factors. Perhaps the most important factor is finding someone you are comfortable with so they can be of help. My goal in working with clients is to start by establishing a nonjudgmental, yet honest, relationship that is supportive enough to explore topics and gain insight into issues most relevant to them. I have experience working with clients from all backgrounds with a variety of difficulties, including relationship issues, life transitions, depression, identity struggles, anxiety, and grief.

Welcome to your journey of self-discovery and growth! As a licensed professional counselor, I'm here to empower individuals, strengthen families, and build stronger communities. My eclectic approach combines various modalities like CBT, DBT, Mindfulness, and EMDR to cater to your unique needs and goals. I specialize in anxiety, family conflicts, life transitions, complex trauma, and more.

Coming to therapy requires courage, and I offer an empathic and supportive space where patients can feel understood, valued, and accepted as they are. I approach therapy through an important lens: that lasting change and healing comes from understanding the present-day impact of one’s past experiences and relationships, most importantly with oneself. Whether you are hoping to better manage stress and anxiety, navigate a challenging time in your life, strengthen your relationships, let go of feelings of insecurity, or improve your overall wellbeing, I can help.

Adulting is hard. Stress sucks. Anxiety and Depression seem to be passengers in the trip through life. The plague, Covid, has made these even more amplified....and being asked to go back into the office?! Seriously?! Have you ever felt like an outsider? Like, there can be a group of people talking and you are not part of the conversation. Are you part of the Neurodiverse/neurospicy community? Do you align with the LGBTQIA? Do you ever go to parties and hang out with the Cat? Dog? Well, then we might get along.
