Therapists in Dallas, TX

Feeling stuck or seeking clarity in life and career? I'm Dr. Ross Stewart, PhD, with 30+ years of guiding individuals through life's hurdles, dedicated to unlocking true potential. My collaboration with the NeuroLinguistic Programming (NLP) team led to the Performance Profile, a tool identifying and resolving personal and professional challenges. Beyond NLP, I've mastered Erickson's hypnosis, delving deep into the subconscious for transformative change.

I began my education in the mental health field and spent my initial years training with great counselors and working at all levels of treatment. I have worked with adults, adolescents and young adults. After many years of working for other treatment providers I made the decision in 2009 to open my own practice. In addition to my private practice, I co-host a podcast called Life, Lived Better and work with Foundation 45 an incredible non-profit organization in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area that assists individuals with suicide prevention, addiction and mental health awareness.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor/Therapist experienced in working with a variety of mental health issues, I work to bring solutions to concerns that appear endless. My dedication as a counselor continues to allow comprehensive techniques and methods that will be advantageous to helping individuals understand their opportunities in discovering consistencies to manage their challenges of every day life issues.

My purpose is to guide and facilitate my clients toward an empowered, spiritually connected, and self-directed life. Individuals who are discouraged by, and feel powerless over their impulsivity and compulsions, battle against their own behaviors, emotions, and thoughts, and who have lost their connection to living in joy, are those I feel compassionately called to serve.

An untapped potential to heal, to overcome and to excel lies within each of us. Unlocking this latent potential is at the core of my practice providing counseling as a psychologist in Dallas, Texas.

As a result, you reduce stress, improve motivation and attain goals. By gaining insight and self-management tools, you can make lasting changes to your personal and professional life.

Do you struggle with substance use affecting every aspect of your day-to-day life? Maybe there's damage to your relationships, ability to function, job, or career. Do you feel trapped by the inability to freely choose your thoughts, emotions, or actions? Is getting through the day without self-medicating difficult or impossible? Do you wonder if it’s even possible that your experience of life could be better? Now more than ever, so many people feel anxious, overwhelmed, or uncertain about retaking control of their lives because they don't know how; or fear keeps blocking their best intentions. No wonder you’re so stressed.

Many of my clients want to experience self-realization/actualization. Most want richer relationships, more confidence in the workplace and a greater sense of joy in life.

I am a Licensed Psychologist in Texas (in person & virtual sessions) & Illinois (virtual only sessions) providing short and long-term therapy to adults (ages 18 and up).

People enjoy daily routines in life. Going to work, spending time with family and friends, and hobbies that they love to pursue. Sometimes, unhealthy habits intertwine with such routines, such substance use or non-communication with family members. These habits can interrupt our daily routines and turn into an obsession. Instead of looking forward to the weekend to spend time with healthy endeavors, the weekends could be a time to escape or isolate

I am offering telehealth sessions using internet and telephone options! I believe that you are endowed with the power and energy to overcome any obstacle in life but sometimes, when overwhelmed with life's challenges, you lose contact with your own power.

I am particularly interested in working with yindividuals and couples struggling with life transitions, those who are walking through loss, and those struggling with addictions and/or substance abuse.

Growing up in Chicago, I learned quickly that life is happening to all of us whether we like it or not. This laid the foundation of my belief that we are all placed here on purpose, with purpose. Everything, past, present, and future, is designed to lead us to our purpose. I have chosen to follow the call on my life to help others, like yourself, examine the lessons of the past & (re)discover parts of themselves that will lead them to living a more purpose-filled life.

My clients are ideally willing to openly explore how current and past life stressors contribute to learned behavior patterns that may be ineffective and influence day-to-day suffering. I believe our life experiences influence us but do not have to define us or determine how we will function in the world. Additionally, we all have multiple identities, and we must learn to thrive in a world that is often ill-prepared to treat us with the respect and kindness we deserve. I understand the systemic obstacles often faced by people from diverse communities and seek to empower and support my clients.

Life and relationships often bring pain and when we feel pain we often react in ways that create more pain for us. Sometimes for others, too. I am a trauma-informed counselor. I will help you figure out your pain cycle. We’ll work together to create a response that will bring peace instead.

Sometimes life can get overwhelming. Between work, relationships, school, home life, when does it stop or change? Do you feel like yelling, crying, not caring, shutting down, or just running away? (Raising my hand). Lets change it; whether it is your marriage, relationship, family, mind, or just you. Let's clear out the mess of anxiety, depression, distraction, fear, doubt, confuson, loss, sadness, and anything else holding you down; and replace it with something greater. If not, that's alright...feel free stop by for a hot cup of tea.

We don't control what life gives us but we create what we have around what life gives us. I teach people to be aware of "how" they are creating what they are having... when they know how they create it, then they now have the power to change it- IF and WHEN they ( not spouse, family, friends, or me) want to. Creating change is a person's REAL POWER. Assessment of needs is done in a safe, comfortable environment utilizing Individual, Couple, Family, and Group settings.
