ADHD Therapists in Carrollton, TX

You feel like a fuck-up. It's exhausting. You just want to be liked and loved, but it seems like there must be something wrong with you. It feels like you're never quite good enough. You always feel guilty or anxious or angry. You're so tired of feeling this way. You want to be able to have fulfilling relationships. You want to feel like you matter, like you are loved, like you are someone to be proud of. It's ok. I like you. You are safe with me. We can work through this together. You don't have to feel like this forever.

I endeavor to help my clients to identify their existing strengths and develop resilience with my specialized knowledge and clinical expertise. In the beginning of counseling, my clients will have a clear understanding of where they are emotionally, relationally, and spiritually, which lead them to work on specific goals in the working stage of counseling. Therapeutic interventions will include adjusting thought/behavior patterns (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) to intensify their strengths to overcome crisis. I have successfully worked with the clients who struggled with behavior issues, parenting issues, substance abuse, addiction, PTSD, and trauma-related issues.

Life is full of all types of obstacles, but successful people are those who use those obstacles as motivation. The person most likely to benefit from my interventional methods, a combination of Cognitive-Behavioral and Interpersonal Therapy, is motivated to succeed and only needs a little guidance to achieve his/her fullest potential. We take BCBS and Medicare and are out of network on the other panels, but will assist clients with obtaining reimbursements from your carrier, in addition to a sliding fee scale. I am a clinical neuropsychologist, with specific expertise in dementias (Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Stroke); ADHD/learning issues; mood/anxiety disorders.

I believe in Temple Grandin's declaration, "I am different, not less." As a Certified Autism Specialist, I enjoy working with those who are neurodivergent thinkers, have Autism, ADHD, OCD, PDD, or learning differences, or who share traits with neurodivergent thinkers. My Texas-based therapy practice aims for you to feel supported, respected, and guided to find wellness and growth in your life. Are you wanting to improve your relationships, or share with others your truest self? I'd love to help. In addition to in-person, you can meet with me via telehealth throughout the states of Texas and Minnesota.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and counselor supervisor with over 14 years of clinical experience. I work with adult individuals, adolescents, children, couples and families, using a variety of therapeutic techniques. I have vast experience working with issues related to trauma, depression, bipolar disorder, personality disorders, anger management, mood disorders, anxiety, employment and work place problems, and grief.

My passion is to help you uproot your trauma rather than just treat symptoms (which can often feel unhelpful and frustrating long-term). I frequently work with complex trauma/complex PTSD, insecure attachment patterns, LGBTQIA+ identities, ADHD, and Autism. Clients often come to me feeling "stuck", deeply misunderstood, repeating painful patterns, having had negative therapy experiences in the past, feeling like "nothing works", and have a history of intellectualizing their feelings. It is my goal to help you work through your trauma, navigate your identity, and feel more present and safe in your every day life.

I in address a range of challenges faced by children and adolescents, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, and conflict resolution. I take an eclectic approach, drawing from various theoretical orientations such as play therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT).

I do a lot of work with individuals and couples struggling in relationship issues. Anxiety, depression, conflict management and communication issues tend to be the results of clients applying ineffective solutions to the problems they're experiencing. I love to see the individual and/or couple who seriously desire healthy change in their lives and are willing to risk implementing different approaches to their problems. I work well in family related issues. I have several adolescent guys with issues related to ADD, ADHD, and Aspergers. I offer them an environment that's safe, accepting, understanding and validating.

I am a Christian therapist and have been in practice for 14 years. I help individuals, women, couples, and families walk through difficult transitions which occur in life's path.

I specialize in helping individuals learn how to nurture themselves the way they nurture others in their lives.

Effective counseling begins with the quality of the relationship between the counselor and the client. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate, supervised by Crystal Walker, MA, LPC-S. Now more than ever, people are feeling anxious, overwhelmed and uncertain about how they are supposed to manage their relationships, careers and their lives. Pushing away your needs and not taking time for yourself can lead to long-term issues for your mind and body. We believe it shouldnʼt be so hard to live a better life.

You're not a cookie, and I am not a cookie-cutter therapist. Every person is unique, and my counseling approach is very much tailored to your specific needs. For most people, counseling may be a last resort, one final effort after they’ve tried everything else. Some worry that seeking therapy means they’ve failed; and for others, the idea of therapy is just plain scary or not the way they were “taught to deal with things”. Even so, the fact that you’re reading this means you want to take back control and begin creating the life you really want. Well, you’ve come to the right place!

Are you having problems with your spouse or partner? Are you feeling sad or anxious? Are you going through a divorce? Are you trying to stay away from addiction? Control anger? I can help with couple's issues, depression, anxiety, trauma, relapse prevention, and much more. You've taken the first step today. Let's talk! (through Telehealth or in person). In addition, I do return to school evaluations (Risk assessments), provide Anger Management classes, parenting/co-parenting skills, alcohol awareness, Social skills for Autism, Child abuse and neglect trainings, and I do Immigration Evaluations. I am also an LPC-Supervisor.

Are you struggling to keep up with your family relationships, work and health? Do you know what you need to do but it is hard to make the changes needed? Are you harder on yourself than you are on others? I help people make healthy decisions, manage anxiety and develop strategies to support change and manage stress. Together, we can identify what's not working and get you where you want to be. I have worked in schools for over two decades and love helping parents improve their relationships with their children and learn strategies to help set their children up for long term success.

No doubt about it, change can be difficult, and seeking help is the first courageous step. You have the capacity to make healthier choices. Realize that you can learn to recreate belief systems and coping strategies that are not working, No need to continue unhealthy behavior likely learned growing up. Become dedicated to your peace of mind and create the life you want. It takes commitment, practice, and perseverance. Through a collaborative relationship, I am highly committed to your personal growth and self-awareness. Please do not allow a stigma to keep you from seeking my, or any others help when you are ready.
