Relational Therapists in 75023

I am a Christian psychologist and have been in practice for over 20 years. I believe true healing is possible and that good therapy with a caring and well trained therapist can speed that process. My treatment approach is interpersonal and relational. I work from a psychodynamic framework with an engaged and warm style. My work with clients is always centered around their specific goals and needs.

I am an LPC-Associate at Dallas Therapy Associates. My approach to therapy is holistic and based in the idea that a person exists and interacts wtih their world as part of a dynamic system of personal relationships, vocational pursuits, and internal needs. I recognize the courage it takes to pursue a therapeutic relationship and I view therapy as an opportunity to help empower individuals to advocate for themselves.

Have you found yourself engaging in similar distressing behaviors, thought patterns, or relational dynamics despite your best efforts to change? My approach aims to address your current distress as well as work with you to investigate why this suffering is taking place to begin with. I believe unwanted behaviors, emotions, and thoughts are illustrating something about your experience that has yet to be understood. Therapy provides a relationship in which you can begin to make sense of what your suffering is saying. My hope is that in working together, you can journey towards long lasting life fulfillment instead of simply coping.

I am a warm, compassionate, and attuned counselor that has a research driven focus based on 3 pillars of body, social contact, and self. I have been a high school teacher and coach for the last 7 years and worked in community mental health for 2 years. And have been running my own private practice for the last 2 years. I work best with individuals that are young adults or adults that struggling with where they are in life. I provide a comfortable, safe, non-judgmental environment where we learn together to understand the context of your struggles and establish an appropriate therapy for your needs and wants.

The way you tell your story influences the way you live your story, and my aim is to support you in developing a story that promotes a quality of life that connects you to yourself and the people in your life that sustain you and ground you in Love. I serve individuals, families, and couples, and as a relational therapist, my goal is to partner with you in telling and re-telling your story in ways that serve you and empower you to live the best version of your life. Moreover, I utilize Narrative Therapy and a biopsychosocial-spiritual model to offer intentional support as you seek points of clarity.

Are you looking for a therapist that is culturally sensitive to your own unique story and journey in life? Have you been told or heard that therapy is for the weak or for "crazy" people? Are you looking for therapist that will provide a space that you can feel safe and comfortable to share your worries, concerns and anxiety about life?

Do you tend to hold everything in? Does it feel like too much right now? Let me help you unload. If you have been struggling with anxiety, relational difficulties, changes in your life, chronic illness, perinatal concerns, spiritual/religious concerns, or trauma, I would love to support you by giving you a safe space to process and heal. I believe effective healing begins with a strong relationship between the therapist and client, and I truly see it as an honor to serve you.

I am committed to helping my clients achieve their goals. I believe that counseling can promote a lifestyle that results in physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. I focus on the client as a whole individual, rather than a disorder, and encourage healthy behaviors across various aspects of life. I conceptualize individuals and form treatment plans tailored to each client's unique characteristics, strengths, values, and needs. I work diligently to create a safe, empathic, and supportive environment for my clients.

Are you struggling with your relationships or feeling stuck somehow in your life? Do you feel like you keep repeating the same negative cycles and don't know how to change? I am here to tell you that there is hope and you can change your life and relationships! I am passionate about helping people understand, get to the root of their problems and solve them, not just deal with the symptoms of those problems. I am a faith based coach with a doctorate in counseling and I have helped hundreds of individuals and couples break free from negative patterns of thinking and behavior and replace those patterns with positive, healthy ones.

Have you ever found yourself in a moment where everything changes, leaving you to wonder, "What just happened?" Sudden feelings of overwhelm or disconnection are very common. I am dedicated to providing an empathetic, supportive environment where your perspective is met with curiosity, acceptance, and a touch of playfulness. Together, we'll expand the use of emotional language, cultivate healthy ways to express feelings, and start to build a foundation of self compassion, respect, and understanding.

Journeys Counseling provides professional psychotherapy, vibrant living coaching, and spiritual direction to the community. Our work is interdenominational, serving clients from many different backgrounds, including those who have little or no religious affiliation. As a Christian organization we believe counseling should address the whole person and be respectful of people’s faith. Individual’s beliefs are both an important part of their lives and a valuable resource when experiencing distress. Counseling should assist in developing those resources further. Often, people lack support systems that help deal with personal problems.

I have worked primarily with POC and other American Cultural Minority populations, including South Asian survivors of domestic and sexual violence, LGBTQIA+, and many others. As a first generation Tamil-American, I have extensive personal and professional experience with model minority stressors, cultural trauma, immigration abuse, religious abuse and various other struggles common for those that identify as a minority in America. I believe that therapy is meant to be a space of mutual collaboration, to help work towards and help understand those aspects of your life that motivated you to seek guidance.

As a therapist, I specialize in working with highly sensitive individuals, those eager to explore spirituality in depth, teachers, creative minds, and individuals striving to enhance their roles as partners in relationships. My core therapeutic approach is rooted in mindfulness, shaped by my intensive training in a Buddhist Monastery where I honed my meditation skills and embraced prolonged periods of introspective silence. These experiences have equipped me with the tools to guide others towards a space of joyful self-discovery, facilitating the germination of authentic desires.

We all need connection. In this age of social media and the abundance of information, we can feel isolated and disconnected. I am here to support you in re-establishing authenticity in your relationships, especially your relationship with yourself. I strongly believe that authentic connections with others can lead to positive change. When we learn to create secure bonds with people that we care about, where we are accepted for all parts of our-self (the good/bad/struggles and the repairs), we are able to live life in full color. I am here to see you, to accept you and am honored to walk with you in this stage of your life.

I provide sexual addiction help in an atmosphere that is encouraging and accepting and meet the client and his or her family where they are.

Life is all about relationships and how we respond to our environment. I love helping people have better relationships, whether it's with your spouse, children, friends, relatives, or co-workers. I find that when we have good relationships in our life, we are able to better deal with life's stressors and life is much more meaningful. You may be a high functioning person, but a few relationship helps can go a long way to a more fulfilling life. Maybe right now you are not high functioning and need a major overhaul. We will sort that out together.
