Therapists for Teens in McKinney, TX

I am accepting new clients and have evening and weekend appointments available in person and online. Are you seeking support to navigate life's challenges? Whether you're a woman grappling with trauma, PTSD, or relationship struggles, or a parent looking to support your child through play therapy, I am here to walk alongside you on your path to healing. As a dedicated therapist, I specialize in helping women through the complexities of life. From overcoming trauma to navigating family conflicts and relationship hurdles, I offer a unique blend of empathy and real-world wisdom.

I deliver cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and other evidence-based treatments to adult, seniors, and teens with a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and adjustment problems, such as anxiety, stress, depression, and relationship problems. I try to build on an individual's strengths and individualize therapy to each person's need. I believe psychotherapy can help individuals most effectively use their resources to increase self-understanding, to improve decision-making, to solve problems, and to create paths to the lives they want. I use mindfulness training to help clients live in the moment, with a compassionate and nonjudgmental approach.

I believe we are hard-wired for connection, growth, purpose and joy. Sometimes we just need a little help. Every stage of life challenges us to discover ourselves and others in a new way. This can be exciting and rewarding. It can also be confusing and scary. We may start to notice patterns in our lives that get in the way of our best life, a life of balance, a life filled with security, curiosity, love, friendship, satisfying accomplishment, healthy habits, freedom and good fun. Counseling can be an incredible source of support and a source of new insight and skills.

Hi! I am currently accepting new clients - in person & virtually! I wholeheartedly believe in the transformative power of empathy, which, when combined with connection, becomes the essential fuel for success. Many individuals have not experienced the true depth of being heard, understood, and loved, and some may not have felt encouraged to embrace their authentic selves. In counseling, I strive to create a non-judgmental space that is therapeutic, life-giving, safe & conducive to personal growth. Self-awareness, encompassing strengths, weaknesses, experiences, personality type & more, serves as a foundation for setting attainable

By using an individualistic approach to each session and an eclectic range of interventions, your treatment will be tailored to your individual needs and the needs of your family. Participation of family members, particularly when working with children and adolescents, is a key element to developing coping, and growing toward healthy living. For adults, examining the underlying cause of your presenting symptoms can be a challenging and life-changing experience. If this sounds like the kind of help you've been searching for, please contact me!

I am taking new clients–in person and virtually! There are times in life when we get stuck. We have expended all of our internal resources and we need to reach out for help. In those times we may not be able to see hope, so we borrow it from someone else. That's where I meet my clients, offering space for them to share their story and find healing. It is my joy to work with children, teens and adults who want to change the trajectory of their story and experience wholeness. I would love to help you too!

Have you experienced a loss or major change in your life? Sometimes changes in our lives can bring about stress, anxiety, or feelings of doubt and hopelessness. I believe that we can overcome these feelings through finding meaning in our struggle and learning different coping skills to face new challenges. Together, we can face the struggle and I can help empower you with new coping skills and strategies to overcome obstacles.

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.

I received my Masters from University of Texas at Arlington in 2012. I have extensive experience and training in medical social work, dual diagnosis, and depressive disorders. I work with clients on a diverse spectrum of topics: depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, life stages, attachment and codependency, alcoholism, substance abuse, individuals living with disabilities, LGBT, gender dysphoria, and caregivers of people suffering from mental illness.

Now Accepting NEW Clients! I think of myself as solution-oriented and I feel privileged to be able to support and witness clients grow and overcome challenges they face in their day-to-day lives. I work with individuals and families, and have a special interest in working with couples as they work through and navigate relationship challenges, transitional periods and working towards creating stronger bonds. My educational and professional background has afforded me the experience of supporting clients with various concerns such as anxiety, depression, anger, self-esteem, grief & loss, and relationship issues–to name a few.

I believe that change occurs best within an authentic relationship between client and therapist. Along with the client I create a friendly and caring environment in which you can feel safe to explore and express your authentic self. Through this relationship I believe you will feel more able to go into the world feeling joyous and alive. I seek to assist you to be better able to connect to others in relationships, as well as to genuinely express yourself in work and play.

From my heart to your heart - to the heart of the matter. Whether its trauma, abuse, abandonment, grief, addiction, or the end of a significant relationship, we all have unfinished business to sort through. Individuals usually know what to do when they enter into therapy, but anxiety, fear, depression, and maladaptive patterns of coping keep them stuck in repetitive cycles of unhappiness. More than a diagnosis, you are a human being hoping to reclaim that better part of yourself. Through guidance in a nurturing environment, personal growth and self acceptance are possible.

My telehealth clients are individuals from ages 10 and up who come to therapy to creatively work on life stressors, coping strategies, boundaries, self-esteem and identity in a safe and supportive environment. Often times artistic, sensitive, intelligent people will have very unique problems in this world. As both an LPC-A and a Provisional Art Therapist, I will meet you where you are with a calm, compassionate demeanor. I help clients gain confidence, regulate emotions, and improve communication and relationships.

Do you feel as though you will never have a healthy relationship: with your family? with your significant other? with yourself? with food? Do you struggle to love and appreciate the person staring back at you in the mirror? Do you feel stuck in habits that result in self-sabotage and feelings of shame? Do you feel unworthy or undeserving of stability or contentment, so you turn to unhealthy eating patterns, toxic relationships, or substances? Maybe the trauma you have experienced has not been managed effectively and you don't have the tools to heal and feel relief.
