Frisco, TX 75034
Are you caught in a cycle of anxious thoughts, avoidance, and the quiet dread that things will never change? Whether you're managing OCD, social anxiety, or the kind of persistent worry that follows you everywhere, you deserve more than white-knuckling through another day. You don't need to have it all figured out to start — you just need to be willing. I'll meet you exactly where you are, with warmth, a clear game plan, and the occasional laugh along the way.

Steven Gregory Barnett
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Frisco, TX 75034
As a therapist, I employ powerful tools like DBT, CBT, and ACT to help you navigate life's challenges.
Life is hard enough without our own brains getting in the way. External circumstances-whether social, familial, school or work related-can challenge us beyond the point where we feel like we can cope, leading to anxiety, depression, and self-doubt. In such cases, we can sometimes become our own worst enemies, imposing counter-productive and negative judgments on ourselves. As a cognitive behavioral therapist, my role is to provide a safe, judgment-free environment in which we can address the issues together, discover solutions, and cultivate clarity and personal growth.

Feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, trauma, or a difficult life transition? I work with clients who want practical tools to cope, heal, and create meaningful change. Many of my clients feel stuck in patterns of self‑criticism, emotional overwhelm, or all‑or‑nothing thinking that make it hard to move forward. Alongside these issues, I have a special interest in helping clients transform their relationship with their body, food, and self‑care. This might look like feeling ashamed of your body, using food or exercise to cope with emotions, or struggling to maintain healthy routines even when you truly want to feel better.

Life has blindsided you: a sudden loss, an unexpected move, a relationship on the brink, or an anxiety that refuses to quiet down. You are the dependable one for everyone else, yet exhaustion, worry, and self-doubt now fill the spaces where confidence once lived. You want sleep that restores, days that feel purposeful, and a mind that is kinder to itself. Most of all, you long to feel at home in your own skin again.
