Therapists in McKinney, TX

Only telehealth at this time. I aim to help clients learn skills that will help them manage their emotions, effectively cope with distress, and develop healthier relationships. I also enjoy helping parents and families' support loved ones through validation, limit-setting, and emotional regulation skills. I emphasize a warm, non-judgmental approach to client care, helping clients reach practical, concrete solutions to complex problems. I believe every individual has the potential to achieve success within his/her personal, professional and relationship life.

I believe that the great thing about therapy is that people have room to grow, adults and children alike. I facilitate a therapeutic environment and a safe space for my clients to discuss both their struggles and their victories as they establish healthy boundaries while coping with life’s challenges. My counseling approach is guided by person-centered counseling. I focus on building rapport and establishing a therapeutic relationship with my clients while being original and authentic in my counseling process. Overall, utilizing empathy and unconditional positive regard to provide hope and support when it is needed most.

Hello! Welcome to my page. My name is Deidre. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Cognitive-Behavioral therapist. I specialize in supporting adolescents and adults grappling with anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction/recovery, relationship concerns, women's issues, and grief and loss.

Adulting is hard. Being a kid is hard. Being human is hard. Having access to all of the world all of the time is hard. It’s overwhelming and everyone has an opinion. And sometimes it can just become too much. Every stage of life comes with what seems like insurmountable obstacles. This day and age with the seeming constant comparison to a perfect social media life can leave one feeling impossibly more than less than. Sometimes we just need a little help. A place to sit with our reality without the judgement or the press to have it all.

I have been providing counseling services to children, adolescents, and their families since 2010. If your child is struggling with behavior, trauma, or mood disorders, I am here to help. I have also worked with children in the educational system and have knowledge in schools and appropriate supports and accommodations. Due to the nature of teletherapy, older children and teens would benefit most from online therapy, as well as their parents/guardians.

Children and adults have many stressors and concerns in their lives that may be difficult to talk about or share with close friends and family. Many having the fear of being judged hesitate sharing their true fears and anxieties and small children may not even have the words to properly describe what they are feeling. I provide a safe environment where people can come and talk about (through talk therapy, activity therapy, or play therapy) their experiences in their day to day lives and how it effects them. I further assist parents to build on their parenting skills and open the lines of communication.

I hope to be someone you can seek support from, but who can also help to guide you to feel more in control, more grounded, and better able to face everyday stressors that pop up along the way. I believe we all have the power to grow from challenges; we just need the right guidance and space to do so. I love walking alongside clients to help them navigate these challenges.

I have a passion for working with others to improve their quality of life. I have spent over twenty years working with children of all ages, adolescents and adults, whom have had emotional, behavioral, medical and learning challenges. I have experience providing family and marital counseling. My experience also includes working with individuals whom have dual diagnosis using different forms of psychotherapy. I meet my clients where they are to partner with them in making a positive impact in their lives. I choose to live my life by the words of Mahatma Gandhi “You must be the Change you wish to see in the World".

Mental illness lives. Anxiety lives. OCD lives. Addiction lives. Depression lives. Imagine millions of people around the universe waking up with the same dark, aching places you promised you’d never talk about. I’ve noticed how quick we are, as human beings, to push aside the most meaningful parts of our lives. Let’s not push aside the things that need to be talked about. Let’s bring mental illness to the light. The worst thing we can do is ignore it. It exists and it easily consumes. So if you’re struggling right now my role is to listen, discern your strengths and vulnerabilities, and invite growth as you place trust in my care.

I work with children as young as 3, teens, adults, couples, and families. I hope to help you work through any issues related to depression, anxiety, and even relationship concerns in premarital and marriage counseling. I have also worked in crisis counseling and shelters, as a crisis counseling and trauma informed trained professional. Working with youth that have lived through trauma, I have extensive knowledge and skill helping adolescents work through issues such as depression, anxiety, school stress, self esteem, self harm, and bullying.

Hi! I really enjoy meeting with people to talk about what is causing them stress. I enjoy meeting with adults, children and families who have attention issues, struggle with anxiety, and experience feelings of depression. In addition, I also focus on anger management issues. When we talk together, we talk about stressors and ideas for how to make small steps to help things go more smoothly.

Hello my name is Tamolyn “Tammy” Williams, MA, LPC, NCC with Start Your Growth Counseling.

Therapy can be very helpful in addressing problems you may be having in your life. If you struggle with relationship problems, decision making, depression, anxiety, self esteem, impluse control, trauma, substance abuse, grief, addiction or life transitions; I can provide a neutral non-judgmental space to explore and resolve these issues. Many people believe they should be able to solve problems on their own and seek help often waiting until the situation has grown unmanageable. However, early interventions and proactive actions tend to lesson the impact of painful experiences, allowing you to move past problems more easily and quickly.

In psychotherapy, Tannaz pays close attention to the importance of whole and complete system of individuals.

I specialize in working with teens and adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, social anxiety, self-esteem issues, making friends, managing stress, or dealing with dating/relationship struggles. I have such a heart for working with clients with these goals. I remember going through these things myself and how much it meant to have people in my life who gave me the tools and insight to grow and heal. It helped me begin a chapter of my life that was full of confidence and positive change. Because I had this blessing, I have always wanted to pay it forward and to offer the same help and guidance for growth that I received.

As a Licensed Psychologist who provides psychotherapy to adults, adolescents, and tweens, I use science and creativity to guide people, of all ages, toward healing, knowledge, and empowerment. I use Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, and other evidenced-based treatments, to treat a variety of mental health concerns like depression, inattention/hyperactivity, adjustment to life transitions, workplace/school concerns, anxiety, anger, identity related concerns, relationship challenges, and grief/loss.

I have a general practice focusing on clients with life’s adjustment, marriage & family issues, conditions unique to childhood & adolescence, coping with disabilities, trauma recovery, crisis intervention, stress management, and conflict resolution. I primarily approach counseling from a CBT perspective, however, I integrate theoretical approaches (including solution-focused, strengths-based and biblical principles), to better understand aspects of the clients’ problems for effectual treatment. I serve clients from ages 5 through adulthood regardless of their race, nationality, religion, gender, disability or sexual orientation.

Learning to manage life can be a challenge. When complicated by life transitions, performance pressures, chronic health conditions, mental health diagnoses, or a host of other unforeseen obstacles, it is important to seek guidance. I have shared this journey with individuals & families for over 28 years. My clinical training, the use of research supported treatments, such as EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), & Sports Counseling have allowed me to successfully work with individuals of all ages (children, teens, adults, & geriatrics), athletes, & business professionals who are confronted with a variety of concerns.
