Integrative Therapists in Dallas, TX

Scheduling open for assessments starting 4/24/2024! Hello & welcome! I am passionate about utilizing psychotherapy and psychodiagnostic assessment to help people discover and embrace their most authentic selves. I believe that a collaborative and supportive therapeutic relationship is the foundation for creating a safe space for you to increase your insight and flourish. I work with children and teens who are looking to better understand themselves, increase relationship satisfaction, heal from painful or traumatic experiences, increase their emotional regulation, process life transitions, or pursue a more meaningful future.

Naturally, we gravitate towards what's most comfortable but often what's most comfortable is what keeps us "stuck." Life can feel unmanageable without clear direction, guidance or support. Whether you're dealing with the lingering stress from our historical pandemic, relationship stress, substance abuse issues, general stress, or other past traumatic events, I'm here to help and support you with overcoming life's obstacles.

I am a bilingual psychologist who is passionate about offering people a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment in which to grow and explore themselves. I view psychotherapy as being a collaborative experience where the therapeutic relationship drives meaningful change and growth. As my clients experience those uncomfortable "growth spurt" moments, I aim to support them by modeling authenticity and encouraging them to practice patience and acceptance with themselves. It is my personal belief that therapy can not only lead to symptom reduction, but also to greater personal satisfaction and inner tranquility.

Change is an inherent part of our humanness. With every breath that we take, our bodies expand and contract - they shift. But when change happens in our lives, it can feel impossible to navigate. How do we redefine ourselves in times of chaos? How can we mend connections that are frayed? What can we hold onto? The fact that you are reading these words means that you are fiercely, bravely in search of yourself. I would be honored to accompany you, your partner, or your family as you navigate this change.

Are you struggling with a personal dilemma, feeling stuck, or unhappy with aspects of your life? I am passionate about being involved in my client's journey towards recovery and healing. I believe in developing a strong, collaborative therapeutic relationship and working diligently to meet the unique needs and goals of each client I serve. I feel it is essential for me to understand your story from your perspective. I work with clients from diverse backgrounds and with a variety of presenting concerns including relationship problems, anxiety, depression, adjustment issues, anger management, and interpersonal pain.

We all have a story that impacts who we are today. Part of your journey to discovery and healing is telling that story. I provide a safe, caring, and non-judgmental environment for my clients to share, explore, and process life's events on their path to growth and healing. No two people are alike and the work we do will reflect that. My approach is a collaborative process that will help guide you, move you forward, and identify obstacles that are keeping you from creating genuine, lasting change. My view of the therapeutic relationship is not limited to just the client but is a holistic picture of the entire family system.

Healing is a journey that is unique to each person’s individual lived experiences. Maybe you've experienced discrimination, trauma, or unhealthy relationship patterns that cause you to feel disconnected, unsure about yourself or life trajectory, or develop unhealthy coping mechanisms. Maybe you're feeling stuck or wondering if healing is even possible. In therapy I provide a safe open space that allows for growth, exploration, and healing tailored to your individual needs.

Many of us struggle with feelings of insecurity, anger, anxiety, and sadness. We may find ourselves wishing that relationships with our families, romantic partners, or friends were more fulfilling. Sometimes the struggle to decipher how to live a more fulfilling life can be a lonely one. If you feel this way, know that you are not alone and there is help. After working as a therapist for over a decade, what I have found is that no one wants to live a "less than" life, yet many do not know how to live any differently.

Are you struggling with making a change but afraid to make that step? Are you in a relationship that's painful, or do you find yourself surrounded by friends but have no one to talk to? I've worked with hundreds of clients just like this and I can help you. Hi, I'm Dr. Jan Scott and I've had a successful psychotherapy practice in the Dallas-Forth area for over 40 years, and I would love to hear about your unique needs.

When feeling detached and alone, it is only natural to seek support. I am here to help you cultivate self-love, know where you belong, and feel connected and balanced in all areas of your life.

I want to know you, and support you in trusting & feeling safe connecting with others & yourself again. Book your free 20 minute phone consultation today at www.calendly.com/aum-integral-wellness

My clients would describe me as competent, easy to talk to and compassionate. I am passionate about creating an environment where you can feel safe and heard. Carl Rogers once said, “We think we listen, but very rarely do we listen with real understanding, true empathy. Yet listening, of this very special kind, is one of the most potent forces for change that I know.” I believe that therapeutic work is most helpful when you can sense that you are working with a therapist who genuinely cares and will listen. From that foundation, there will also be space for you to reflect and receive insight that will aid in meeting your goals.

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.

If you struggle with sexually compulsive behaviors, addiction, or have a partner who has caused devastation in your life, I can help. Trying to stop compulsive behaviors on your own is difficult, and you may find yourself failing and experiencing shame because you don't have the tools you need. Whether these compulsive behaviors come from being betrayed by a partner, experiencing PTSD, being enmeshed with a partner or parent, or grieving a divorce, I can teach you the necessary skills to handle life's challenges. I'm passionate about my work and want to help you.

Throughout my experience as a counselor, I have noticed that our shame is the foundational and often times our biggest barrier to success. My approach is to help client's identify and replace these shame-based thoughts and become more aware of how these thoughts impact the way they see themselves, others, and the world around them. Once you can view your authentic self as someone that is worthy, goals can be clearly defined, progress can be made, and healing can be obtainable. While this isn't the only consideration in counseling, it is one of great importance.

Do you often find yourself worrying about the important relationships in your life? Maybe you’re wondering what happened to the sense of connection you once felt with your partner? Or perhaps you’re stuck in a painful pattern with someone you care deeply about, but you can’t figure out how to get unstuck? For many of us, relationships are central to our life, and we crave deep and meaningful connections. And, it makes perfect sense to feel distressed when we are disconnected from loved ones, when we are in a period of difficult transition, or when events and concerns from the past impact our current relationships.

I believe psychotherapy should be a transformational experience. We often get stuck in patterns of relating and being that, at one time, were adaptive and protective, but no longer help us to be our best selves. Psychotherapy helps to understand those patterns, develop strategies to disrupt them, and create new ways of being and relating that get us closer to our personal and professional goals.

Sometimes life transitions, stressors, trauma, or grief can feel overwhelming. No matter how hard you may be trying to work things out on your own, it may feel like you are not gaining ground. Change and healing don't happen in isolation, and we all need help at some point. Having a caring professional walk with you through challenging times can be incredibly helpful. I have 15+ years of experience working with clients through life transitions and challenges and helping them establish goals and create change.

Life is hard. And while we are built to be resilient, no one should have to do it alone. If you are struggling to manage and cope with depression, anxiety, stress, physical health issues/chronic disease, insomnia, and the psychological, emotional, and relational distress that often accompanies these difficulties, you are not alone. Mind Body Sleep is here to support you. We offer evidence-based, specialized, health psychology services for Functional Neurological Disorders (FND) and insomnia using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I). For more information please visit my website at www.MindBodySleepTherapy.com.

Sometimes we need someone to join us on the difficult journey of life. I believe everyone deserves an opportunity to explore and improve upon themselves. I encourage clients to bring their genuine self to therapy. Together we will work from a holistic framework to help you achieve better emotional and mental balance. I believe a strong therapeutic relationship is one founded on trust, safety, acceptance, understanding, and empathy; this alliance lays the groundwork for client growth. Every person is unique, and I approach therapy in a way that fosters that individuality. I am passionate about working with adolescents and adults.
