Anger Management Therapists in Aubrey, TX

Hi, I'm Stephanie McGill and I have been helping families restore structure, peace of mind and recover from mental health and substance abuse challenges for more than 10 years. I enjoy working with families, teens and couples. I like to learn what challenges you have in your life and what outcomes you would like to see so I can help you develop a treatment plan that will lay out the steps to get you there. Our office is located in Frisco, is handicap accessible and accredited by Carf, which just means that we hold ourselves to a much higher standard than even the State licensing boards.

Sometimes life hands us challenges that make daily living difficult. Those challenges can include life changes, mental health issues, or an unexpected medical diagnosis. You might find yourself feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed or even confused. My name is Dr. Anne Scaggs. I am a licensed clinical social worker in Texas and I am here to provide support, understanding, and some strength-based approaches that we select together so that you are not only heard and validated but involved in the development of the strategies that will assist you. I have experience working with adolescents and adults of all ages.

I believe that every person can reach to their fullest potential in life with the right support and guidance. There are times that you may feel anxious, depressed hopeless and alone. In these times it can be very helpful to have someone to help you navigate your way through these challenges to a state of mental wellness and stability. Counseling can provide a safe and confidential space to learn skills and address feelings that likely impact many areas of your life.

My experience and training in the past 24 years have led me to focus on the areas of Trauma, Anxiety, and Autism. I enjoy working with all ages, from kids to young singles and couples and extending to aging clients. I can work with persons experiencing chronic illness and pain. For families, I can work with adoption issues, blended families, and domestic violence. I love setting up groups with those who will benefit from them. The added appeal from group involvement is the decrease in cost and the additional therapeutic connection this affords.

“I don’t like to think that the only people that have problems come to therapy because when we say that people have problems that means that there is something wrong with them. I don’t think there is anything wrong with the people that come to counseling, and I don’t think there is anything wrong with the clients I see. I do believe that talking to a genuine professional can help you look at things in a different way in hopes to gain insight into yourself – to me that is invaluable.” – Gerardo Blanco

Struggling to find joy and balance in your relationships and daily life? As a Christian counselor, I support teens, couples, and families who are facing feelings of anxiety, depression, and dissatisfaction. Imagine breaking free from the cycle of negativity and finding a harmonious balance between work, personal life, and family, while still having time for the things you love. It’s painful to realize we’re not living the life we desire, one filled with joy and meaningful connections. Together, we can silence the voices of doubt and overcome the feelings of being stuck while working towards a life that you find meaningful.

I love working with children, adolescents and adults who may struggle with anxiety, depression, family issues, or any other day-to-day challenges. My optimal client's goals would be for them to become the best version of themselves and be ready to work in and outside of therapy; desiring happiness, health, and an overall stronger sense of belonging and direction for their life. I can help by walking alongside of you as your guide; helping you navigate life's greatest challenges through kindness, support, and self awareness.

People often reach out to me when they are struggling to find fulfillment in everyday life, or when they experience constant worrying that doesn't ever seem to subside. Life experiences have often lead them to this point, and traditional office-based therapies have not rendered the results they are hoping for.

Are you trapped in a repetitive cycle, unable to shake off longstanding issues that have haunted your life for years? Whether it's struggles with addiction, a pattern of failed relationships, or persistent feelings of anxiety and depression, you've tried countless solutions to no avail. Have you ever considered that you might be carrying baggage that isn't yours to bear, or that unresolved childhood traumas may be at the root of your challenges? I can guide you through the process of unpacking these underlying issues and equip you with the skills and tools needed to achieve lasting resolution.

Are you tired of the critic telling you that you will never be good enough. Are you tired of the guilt or shame that the critic has used to control and keep you from being all that you were meant to be. Let me be the first to introduce you to your authentic self and the freedom that comes along with this bold journey.

I work with a diverse array of clients, including active and retired military, police, and other first responders, as well as victim/survivors of trauma, chronic illness, substance use, and the LGBTQ+ population. I have skills for the variety of concerns that my populations encounter, including, complex PTSD, trauma, severe anxiety, adjustment, re-integration, communication, TBI/ABIs, phobias, substance use, and mood dysregulation. Most importantly, I work with clients that come how they are, how they can, and with everything they have.

We all have hurts that need attention and we do not always know how to do that. I believe we were created for relationships and at times those relationships or how we are going about them can be unhealthy. Due to that, we have adapted and learned coping mechanisms that have allowed us to function and move on. However, those coping mechanisms can stop working after a while and this is what creates an imbalance in our system that we need to make right or it can begin to generate stresses that spill over into other aspects of our lives.

I am passionate about helping individuals, couples and families develop healthy solutions to better navigate life's challenges, so they can find true, meaningful happiness and fulfill their dreams. My goal is to provide my clients with a nonjudgmental, trauma-informed, multicultural competent therapeutic environment where they can feel accepted, understood, supported, valued, empowered, and loved. My approach to counseling includes using evidence-based therapeutic techniques designed to support clients construct solutions and finding answers for their own unique challenges while respecting their individuality and personal beliefs.

It is my belief that everyone has innate value and purpose to offer the world and that we all have the power within us to be who we want to be. Oftentimes, obstacles in life keep us from getting a clear vision of how to identify what we want and to achieve our goals. I love helping clients to process through their difficult life experiences identify how these experiences can help propel them forward. I often work with teens and adults who are struggling with Anxiety, Depression, identity, career, or finding purpose in their lives. I also have 18 years of experience as a competitive gymnast and love working with athletes.
