Family Systems Therapists in Dallas, TX

Thank you for visiting my page. You are probably here because you are tired of figuring everything out on your own. If so, you've already completed the hardest part. Being on this page to search for the therapist that best fits you. If you choose to do work with me, this is how it will look like. I diligently craft a space free from judgment, one where you can openly explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. My commitment lies in fostering an environment that nurtures your truest self to emerge, facilitating a journey of self-discovery and acceptance.

You’ve been feeling disconnected from your adopted child/ren. It’s been so exhausting that it’s led to burnout. You’ve even started to build resentment. You wish parenting wasn't so draining, impossible, and difficult. You pour everything into your kids, and it's never enough. You want the deep connection you always hoped for. Some days, you’re so angry and bitter because this is not what being a mom was supposed to be like and certainly not what you signed up for when you adopted. You long to feel joy and connection in parenting.

Cracked by life? Don't stay shattered. Life simply sucks sometimes. We've all been there, battered by hardships that leave us feeling defeated, down-trodden, and drowning in insecurity. We question everything, from our choices to our very ability to cope. But here's the good news: you're not alone, and the solutions exist. That's where I come in. As a licensed professional with years of experience in both inpatient and outpatient counseling, I believe therapy is the ultimate toolbox for navigating life's messy challenges. No problem is too big, no pain too deep. Your story deserves a triumphant rewrite.

Are you experiencing sadness or anxiety that is keeping you from having a fulfilling life? Are you having difficulties within your relationships or finding it hard to be authentic with others? If so, therapy is a place where you can address these struggles. I believe it is important that you trust me in order for you to benefit from therapy. As a result, I will work hard to create a safe environment where you feel comfortable. I will also work to develop a supportive environment while also challenging you to make changes.

Have you been searching for a therapist who truly connects with you, your teen, or partner? You’ve tried different things, but the communication, relationships, and interactions in your family are just discouraging and frustrating. You’ve tried therapy before, and even considered more intensive treatment options for yourself or your child. You don’t know what else to do. You are not alone. It is possible to establish changes intra-personally and within relationships. Family harmony can be a reality.

Healing Beyond the Surface. Healing Beyond your Circumstances. Our mission, at Honestly Healing, is to focus on providing optimal functioning and performance, as well as elevated and positive results in all aspects of your life. My practice focuses on the newest sciences, theories, and evidenced based-approaches. I am currently accepting new applicants for Concierge Therapy Services. Additionally, I provide Telehealth Therapy Services, Supervision for LPC-Associates, and Clinical Consultation Services for Mental Health and Addiction Facilities.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor and a Registered Play Therapist Supervisor. I have worked with children and families for over 20 years. My passion is to help children express themselves through play, a child's natural way of communicating. To give children the tools to process and understand their world and what they have experienced in a way that cognitively and verbally they may not have the ability to do just yet.

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 can help you regain balance in life and regain forward momentum to living the life you are destined to live. 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.

Have you experienced narcissistic relationships, toxic relationships, or spiritual abuse? Do you have emotionally immature or narcissistic parents? Do you stay in painful relationships too long? Do you find yourself in relationships with similar partners or friends? If you are ready to develop skills to identify and overcome these patterns, I work with survivors of narcissistic abuse, spiritual abuse, complex trauma & PTSD, relationship trauma, childhood trauma, and women with ADHD.

I treat pre-teens, adolescents, adults, families, and relationships. My specialization lies in the treatment of depression, anxiety, recovery from sexual abuse or assault, out-of-control sexual behavior, sexual avoidance, and relationship issues. When treating relationships, my focus is on reducing feelings of resentment and increasing positive and healthy communication.

I believe in taking a holistic view of each individual, considering not only their internal experiences but also their external environment and relationships. By understanding the whole ecosystem of a person, including their strengths and patterns, we can tailor a treatment plan that is truly effective. One unique aspect of my background is my professional training in integrating a client’s faith practice with their treatment process, if desired. I respect and honor each client’s beliefs and preferences, ensuring that treatment is always client-motivated and client-led.

Seeking help is not an easy thing to do, yet it is one of the best decisions you can make for yourself and those around you. You deserve to be seen and heard and when you decide to take the first step to seek counseling, I will listen with no judgment, and provide empathy and honest feedback. I have experience working with pre-teens, teenagers, and adults of all ages. I provide therapy to individuals, families, and groups for those who may be facing depression, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, domestic violence, and grief. If you are ready to make a change, I am ready to listen and provide the skills necessary to help you make the change.

Life can seem a series of barriers and obstacles that present difficulties in allowing us to be our full and authentic self. How we think and what we believe, whether true or not, often drive our perceptions towards actions. Gaps can exist in our own self-image and what we tell ourselves. Sometimes the gap is based on past experiences and labels others may have placed on us. I believe that bridging these gaps in understanding can be transformative and freeing. However, the steps to seek assistance in exploring how we are affected by these deeply held beliefs can be a tough one.

Sensitivity and compassion, based on acceptance of any of life's painful circumstances, is my passionate aproach to therapy. I work with individuals, couples, families, and groups. Whatever pain you are experiencing; depression, anxiety, substance abuse, grief, relationship issues in families or couples, divorce, family of origin issues, unhealthy communication, work issues, alcololism, or any addiction that is destroying your life, and the need for self confidence or emotional maturity. The pain of each issue can be addressed, worked through, relieved and released. Change is possible!

Transition is often hard. Adjusting between being independent and being in a relationship, adjusting from a school career to a professional career, adjusting to a new sexual or gender identity or simply adjusting to the reality and responsibilities of being an independent adult. Despite often times feeling intelligent and capable, feelings of being stuck, depression and anxiety seem to get the best of you in this present moment. Transition can cause one to question one's self identity and self worth. There are approaches to adapt to these changes and create a more meaningful approach to identity and life.

Experiencing the pain & despair of depression, often feeling confused and misunderstood and anxious about life. Having difficulty coping with stress and feelings you don't understand and being unsure about who you can trust and afraid to seek counselling, and will it help anyway! I understand these feelings, the pain you are going through, and I want to help you obtain the joy that you deserve to feel.

Are you a teen or adult that's analytical, motivated, stressed, high-achieving, hard on yourself & feeling lost? I can help. You're probably always striving to be the best but often dissatisfied, successful in many areas but stuck in a couple and unable to create the change you want by yourself. Most of my clients are career & success driven, athletes, top performers, leaders, & yet face a ton of self doubt. I believe progress comes from a deeper understanding of self. If you are wanting answers about who you are, to grow more confident, unravel some things about your past, & make movement towards relief, then please reach out.

Is your life similar to any of these past clients I have had? 1) A woman being "beat down" at work by her superiors and the work environment has become impossible for her; 2) Couples where one of the spouses had a lengthy affair; 3) A married person who realizes that his/her parents will not accept the new spouse; 4) A messy step-parenting situation; 5) A woman wanting to reconcile with her father; 6) A couple where one of the parties became addicted to pain medication and was in a treatment center for several months; 7) A person who realized on the honeymoon that he/she had made a mistake. Now what should happen?

Many of the physical ailments we experience can be linked to our emotional health and well-being. My hope for you, through behavioral health counseling/coaching, is to develop and implement the necessary skills to reach both physical and emotional wellness.
