Magellan Therapists in Fort Worth, TX

This can be a challenging time and space to be living in. There is so much more you can control in your life experience than what society leads you to believe. I'd be honored to offer you a place of support, a genuinely connected relationship, and my expertise (in nerdy stuff like neuroscience and the cognitive process) to help defeat whatever is standing between you & the life you deserve. My goal is to bring hope and solution to negative things my clients are experiencing through their own personal empowerment.

ACCEPTING REFERRALS AND CLIENTS.Today's pressures are different than they used to be. Technology, social media, employment demands, corporate climbing, home, lifestyles & substances present new and different challenges. If you're struggling or stuck in some of these, let's work together to get you unstuck! Life comes at us fast, and we often find ourselves as passengers instead of drivers. I believe that successfully navigating life's challenges is driven by the choices you make and the perspectives you have.

My ideal client seeks self-exploration & understanding, facing issues like anxiety, depression, or relationship difficulties. They need a supportive space for personal growth, aiming to gain insight, develop coping strategies, improve communication, & foster healthy relationships. They aspire to enhance mental well-being, achieve a better life quality, & unlock their full potential.

Life can be rough, let’s acknowledge that, and then learn how to push through together. There are times that we can feel at the bottom of the pit, I want to understand what brought you there, and help you use your unique skills to climb out. I offer a space for you to just be you; as well as a space for processing, furthering abilities, and self-exploration. We can overcome, and no situation is too dire.

Are you facing challenges like anxiety, depression, or relationship issues? I'm here to support you on your healing journey with compassion and experience. Together, we'll create a safe and non-judgmental space where you can express yourself freely. Let's work towards finding resilience, meaningful connections, and fulfillment in your life. Our focus will be on developing coping skills, enhancing communication, healing, and fostering self-acceptance.

Hello! I'm Mark Richardson (He/They), a Licensed Master of Social Work based in Fort Worth, TX. I've dedicated my career to working with "difficult" populations since 2015. Having a rather multifaceted identity, I prioritize acceptance in therapy, drawn from my own experiences of not always feeling seen and understood. Before private practice, I worked in an inpatient setting, primarily with adolescent clients with diagnoses of substance use disorders, mood disorders, and personality disorders. My areas of focus lie in substance use disorders, ADHD, autism, agoraphobia, homelessness, LGBTQIA+ issues, grief and anxiety.

I really love to work with people who find themselves at a place where something has to give....where staying the same is no longer an attractive option. It may feel like your relationship is stuck in a bad place, or that your family is spun out of control, or that you simply are not the best version of yourself. I work best with those who are ready to take a long honest look at the things that are hard to see..... those who are willing to be brave and learn how to create something different in their lives.

You are an overcomer and I want to help you make hard things manageable. I will provide support, and guide you through the therapeutic process, recognizing that you are the most knowledgeable about your life. My goal is to assist children, adolescents, individuals, couples and families with reaching their goals, using compassion.

I believe each of us can live a fulfilling life by understanding the relationship between what we think, feel, and do in order to help us identify helpful and unhelpful ways of being. By letting go of what hinders us from reaching our goals, we can make intentional decisions and commit to attitudes that align with our values and goals. When we are faced with life hardships and feel stuck; intentional living reminds us that we have power over how we respond to situations out of our control. It’s about self-awareness and clarity about who we are and aspire to achieve.

I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. I want to help you achieve whatever solutions and life changes that you are looking for while enjoying the process as much as possible. Simply, I do not feel that therapy process and the journey have to be painful. I know it can be scary but the life you deserve is starting with a phone call to see how I can best help. I trust the process and look forward to working with you to find peace.

Throughout one's life, challenges arise that one may not be able to handle on their own. We all need a safe space, support, and, at times, guidance to work through those challenges. My goal is to provide that space and support to help clients navigate through life and find solutions that work for them. When working with clients, I apply a collaborative approach when addressing anxiety, trauma, substance use, depressive disorders, and things that life can throw in the mix. Together we can work through the emotional and mental battles that are keeping clients from living their best lives, one day at a time.

LGBTQ+ people experience many different situations and circumstances that are unique to the LGBT community. Your gender and orientation doesn't define you, but it does play a large role in your life and impacts many different other issues that you may face. You deserve a counselor who not only understands this, but also knows how to incorporate a person's whole self into counseling and addresses the specific challenges unique to the LGBTQ+ Community.

I work with children of all ages, and with all parent-child problems. Recent customer comments: "Thank you for your thoroughness in helping me." "You have a very calming manner." "This is the best place I've been to. I really mean it." "I trust your professionalism beyond anyone I've met so far." "You told me to go to AA and I finally went. It's really nice to wake up and not hate myself." "I definitely feel better when I leave here." "I like it that you don't just tell people what they want to hear. You give them real life advice."

Most people have experienced some type of trauma in their lifetime; however, because we aren’t taught to identify certain situations as “traumatic,” we proceed through life with negative, maladaptive behaviors unknowingly. Anxiety, depression, poor communication skills, self-esteem issues, and anger are potential results. Let’s take the first step to a new beginning! I am looking forward to working aside you to overcome the barriers and obstacles that are hindering your personal growth.
