Therapists in Dallas, TX

I guarantee you are not alone, no matter what you might be carrying. In both assessment and psychotherapy, I emphasize a relational, person-centered approach. In therapy, we will work together to heal from hardships and traumatic experiences. The goal is to empower you with the tools you need to regain hope and carry on, no matter how dark the experiences have colored your world. The wound is the place where the light enters you (Rumi). Objective information gathered from assessments helps bring the missing pieces together to complete the puzzle of mental/physical health complexities. I work with children, adolescents, and adults.

Life can be challenging. As a former college athlete, who is no stranger to challenges, Jordan is ready to lace up and be on your team. One way we can combat the challenges that life throws at us is to know and understand who we are. That is where Jordan comes in! You are worthy of getting to know yourself and how knowing yourself impacts your interpersonal relationships and, most importantly, YOU. A holistic approach toward finding and maintaining your voice is the goal. Through encouragement, support, and guidance, your therapeutic journey is set up for success as we navigate your world.

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.

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.

We all face difficult and confusing times. My goal is to assist clients in a confidential and compassionate environment by providing therapy services in the home. My specialties include issues of aging, grief and bereavement, chronic illness, and life transitions. I spent many years working as a hospice social worker. It was a natural transition to have a practice that comes to the client', hopefully with dignity and humor. I have a passion for senior issues and learn from my clients daily.

I believe that we are all our own best experts and advocates. As such, I approach the therapeutic relationship from a place of deep respect for client’s needs, strengths, and personal goals. As a clinician, I prioritize bringing a calm, peaceful environment to sessions – by instilling a sense of safety and unconditional acceptance, we can work collaboratively through life’s challenges. I have experience working with adults and older adults with a variety of care needs. My areas of focus include depression, anxiety, trauma, aging, LGBTQ issues, substance use, and caregiver support.

CHANGE! GROWTH! HEALING! It takes courage to begin a journey of personal growth. I believe that we are all capable of change, growth and healing. I support my clients by creating a safe space that is accepting and empowers them to take that first step. Therapy provides the opportunity for self-exploration and self-discovery. Our past and present experiences impact our belief system and contribute to how we view our life and its opportunities. TOGETHER we will work to create a plan for your desired change.

Life Pushes, and when it does, it can feel as though your world has tilted on its axis. Stress brings with it storms: emotional, physical, relational, financial, spiritual, including storms unique to caring for aging parents. When these storms come, it helps to have someone to trust with your story; someone to hold the "flashlight" figuratively speaking, in order to help you identify your life values, navigate your personal goals, and develop tools so your energy is spent living your life instead of existing. It is my desire to help you develop ways to exchange your current stress for strength.

I provide a safe, non-judgmental environment where clients are able to express their thoughts, feelings, and emotions. I place heavy importance on developing a supportive and collaborative therapeutic relationship to encourage clients to develop better coping skills that empower them to reach their therapeutic goals. I specialize in working with children and adolescents with depression, anxiety, and behavioral issues. I also work with a wide variety of adults with issues including depression, anxiety, trauma, abuse, sexuality, emerging adults, grief, domestic violence, addictions, and career challenges.

You can sign up with me for therapy on the Grow Therapy website linked on my page here. I work collaboratively with my clients and build a working familiarity or rapport to then start working through your primary concerns together. Struggle is a part of everyday life and everyone can benefit from having someone safe and trusted to speak with regarding any stressors or past issues that are having an impact on your here and the now. I do my best to provide an insightful, supportive environment where we can problem solve your thoughts and feelings as clinically and warmly as possible.

You’ve felt stressed, overworked, anxious, or sad before but this feels different. You can’t quite put your finger on it. You think today might be different, maybe you’ll feel like yourself again. It’s starting to become overwhelming. Maybe your work or relationships have yet to be impacted, or maybe they have. You begin to notice an overall negative outlook or feeling. Maybe you’re more irritable, feel more tired lately, have unusual physical sensations, or feel as though something terrible is going to happen. Many of my clients report feeling a sense of general unease without really understanding why.

Whether you have experienced something that has turned your life upside down or if you merely want help kick starting the next stage in your life, therapy can help. Individuals recovering from difficulties related to a traumatic brain injury, stroke, depression, anxiety, and individuals having difficulty managing life decisions (relationships, kids, employment) often have one thing in common: they're searching for strength to carry on with the next step in their lives. Some don't know what the next step is, and others know exactly what needs to be done; however, something is in the way. Therapy can help you FIND YOUR WAY.

Have you ever felt 'out of balance' or 'not yourself.' Are you having relationship or sexual issues? Is societal pressures or prejudices getting you down? My goal is to help you find your balance.

Just as a diabetic requires insulin and a person with vision impairment needs glasses, sometimes we benefit from emotional support to boost optimal brain health and function. Counseling is a safe, collaborative opportunity for you to take personal, self-care time assessing, processing and redefining your life. Learn to build skills to improve communication, social relationships, goal setting, decision making, time management, organization, work / life balance, self-esteem and any other issues preventing you from being the most authentic, successful, fulfilled version of yourself.
