Therapists in McKinney, TX

I'm Anna, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I consider it an honor and privilege to walk with clients as they choose a healing path to a better life. My overall approach is client-centered, creating a safe space to explore and challenge what is holding you back or impeding a healthy mind and body.

Life can be overwhelming, and we all need help at times. I provide a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where we work to resolve difficult situations and past trauma. I gather a comprehensive history to look for past issues that may be affecting your life currently. These events and experiences are processed using the coping skills you have now, and others you learn in therapy. We also look at your goals, your level of self-awareness, your perceptions, your relationships, and whether your needs, in every area of your life, are being met.

By using an individualistic approach to each session and an eclectic range of interventions, your treatment will be tailored to your individual needs and the needs of your family. Participation of family members, particularly when working with children and adolescents, is a key element to developing coping, and growing toward healthy living. For adults, examining the underlying cause of your presenting symptoms can be a challenging and life-changing experience. If this sounds like the kind of help you've been searching for, please contact me!

Is pornography, sexual compulsivity, or infidelity destroying your marriage? Feeling hurt, angry, betrayed? Want things to change but not sure how? You might try to deny that there really is a problem, but the worries that wake you in the middle of the night tell a different story. If you're tired of fighting the same battles and no longer believe the promises that next time will be different, the task ahead of you may seem overwhelming - but hope and help are available.

Have you experienced a loss or major change in your life? Sometimes changes in our lives can bring about stress, anxiety, or feelings of doubt and hopelessness. I believe that we can overcome these feelings through finding meaning in our struggle and learning different coping skills to face new challenges. Together, we can face the struggle and I can help empower you with new coping skills and strategies to overcome obstacles.

Sometimes something has gone awry in our life balance which can manifest into feelings of sadness, symptoms of anxiety, unmanageable stress, uncontrollable fear, and self-doubt. Do you ever feel as if you are stuck, going around and around in circles? Rather than feeling you are alone in this struggle, I strive to meet you right where you are and will work with you every step of the way. I offer a safe and affirming space where together we will work through these challenges. I will provide you with tools that lead to self-discovery and creating a meaningful life.

Adulting is hard. Being a kid is hard. Being human is hard. Having access to all of the world all of the time is hard. It’s overwhelming and everyone has an opinion. And sometimes it can just become too much. Every stage of life comes with what seems like insurmountable obstacles. This day and age with the seeming constant comparison to a perfect social media life can leave one feeling impossibly more than less than. Sometimes we just need a little help. A place to sit with our reality without the judgement or the press to have it all.

Do you feel frozen by anxiety or depression, worried about being neuro-divergent in a neuro-typical world? Does your image of yourself, mentally, physically or in the world at large not match what you feel it should? If you've been thinking about starting therapy but aren't sure if it's the right time, it IS the right time. My practice brings no judgment, no hidden strings, just a desire to help others feel heard and work through any problems presented. My goal is to support you as we find and use tools that will enable you to solve your presenting problems, which you can take into a life far after our sessions.

The human mind and body is a vastly complex and amazing system, with immeasurable capacity for both pain and healing. None of us operates in a vacuum and, because of different life experiences, beliefs, environments and relationships, each of us is unique in our suffering, as well as our path to wellness.

Now Accepting NEW Clients! I think of myself as solution-oriented and I feel privileged to be able to support and witness clients grow and overcome challenges they face in their day-to-day lives.

In private practice, I assist individuals suffering from a variety of mental health concerns including depression, anxiety, PTSD, life adjustment issues, personality disorders, and various family issues.

Are you ready to surrender to the fact that your way of managing your personal and professional life is only making things worse? If so, I am ready to jump in and help! I specialize in conflict resolution, restoring relationships, and improving personal, academic, and professional development. In addition, I help my clients work to identify, explore, address, and resolve any unprocessed traumas or stressors that may be affecting their ability to be the best version of themselves.

I have a passion for working with others to improve their quality of life. I have spent over twenty years working with children of all ages, adolescents and adults, whom have had emotional, behavioral, medical and learning challenges. I have experience providing family and marital counseling. My experience also includes working with individuals whom have dual diagnosis using different forms of psychotherapy. I meet my clients where they are to partner with them in making a positive impact in their lives. I choose to live my life by the words of Mahatma Gandhi “You must be the Change you wish to see in the World".

I help women build resilience to weather the storms of life with grace and strength. I know the importance of being able to bounce back from loss, disappointment, or crisis. As a therapist who works with women stung and damaged by all sorts of life events, I believe that resilience is one of the single most important qualities that enables us to bounce back from the edge. Resilience allows us to find our strength in adverse circumstances. It requires a willingness to fall apart for a time and get in touch with our pain. There is much healing that can be accomplished by getting to know yourself at your rawest and darkest times.

"I believe that everyone needs at least one person in their life that "breathes life" into that person. Just as we need air to breathe, we need affirmation, understanding and connection--especially when dealing with our most intimate issues. Before we can bare our soul, we must be able to trust someone. I would like to be that someone for you. I work with individuals and families that struggle with many different issues such as school, work, relationships or crisis's of faith. I have a special interest in working with those who have endured traumatic experiences - adults or children.
