EMDR Therapists in Lakewood, Dallas, TX

If you endured a traumatic relationship or event, whether recently or in childhood, I can help. I specialize in counseling individuals who have experienced trauma, especially relational abuse or loss. Trauma (or PTSD) can affect your confidence, your current relationships, your mood, or your ability to make changes in your life. You might experience panic attacks, feel persistent fear, feel stuck, or have physical pain. Anxiety is a common symptom of PTSD, but might stand alone. Living with severe anxiety can feel like you have lost control of your life. I can help you regain confidence and manage symptoms associated with PTSD.

Hello! I am Deena Harbaugh. My practice focuses on adults struggling with the aftereffects of incest/sexual abuse, domestic violence, depression, anxiety, trauma, family of origin issues, divorce, marriage conflict, and LGBTQ issues.

Trauma of any amount greatly impacts our development and ability to thrive. Creating issues within the family system, depression, anxiety, and feelings of hopelessness. My practice holds space to heal and enable growth to cope with these symptoms.

Life can be very complex, and it is no one's job to navigate it alone. Working in collaboration with you, I will help you overcome obstacles that are standing in the way of your personal growth. Many of my clients have felt "stuck" in their lives. Whether that be from: infertility diagnoses, pregnancy loss, postpartum, toxic relationships, or trauma. My goal with all clients is to empower them to set healthy boundaries, make the appropriate life changes for themselves and be direct in expressing their feelings and needs.

Have you gotten stuck or lost and realized you haven't worked through childhood trauma or loss? I can help. Sometimes our lives are shaped around early trauma or loss the way a tree will grow around a rock or a pole. Our beliefs about ourselves, our behaviors, our relationship patterns, our emotional habits- are all shaped around and layered of top of those early experiences.

If you’ve ever felt numb, disconnected, or so overwhelmed by emotion that you act out impulsively, you are not alone. You might feel like you don’t know yourself anymore, or like you never knew yourself. You might feel like you’re losing control or feel hopeless about finding happiness, contentment, or safety. Trauma or other intense life stressors can cause problems for mental well-being in all parts of life. I completed my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at UNT Dallas and have completed EMDR training. I have experience and training with trauma, abuse, addiction, dissociation, ADHD, and related issues.
