Counseling in Dallas

For Adults, families, and couples

At East Dallas Therapy, we know that facing your own pain can be scary, but we believe that you can grow beyond those places where you are stuck. You may want to work on coping with stress or parenting from a place of peace. Or you might need to process your faith and doubt or have a more fulfilling marriage. We’ll help you find that voice inside that is telling you what you need. Whatever you come in with, we will discover together what is holding you back so that you can grow into a happier, more hopeful life. 

We work with kids needing help coping with ADHD, teens with depression and anxiety and families who need to raise happy and healthy children. Read more about our family therapy services here.

what happens in a session

  1. You explore past hurt and trauma and find a way through it. You begin to move beyond the self criticism that holds you back.

  2. You understand your needs and begin to ask for what you want in your marriage, work and with family.

  3. You talk through the identity shift that happens when you become a partner or parent or emptynester.

  4. You process past rejection, the need to perform, and legalism from the church. Talk through your doubts about faith, deconstruct it and decide what you want to carry with you.

  5. You find your way through choosing a career and entering adulthood with a sense of security and hope.

Assessments

ADHD, Anxiety, depression, Grief, and for kids ages 7-14 

At East Dallas Therapy we want to help families assess their children in a comprehensive, warm, and supportive way. Whether your child is diagnosed with ADHD, anxiety or you need more information about intellectual abilities, we have the tools needed to help your child flourish.

As family therapists, we have seen the labels put on children and how those labels follow them socially and academically. Diagnosis is typically done by a pediatrician, psychiatrist or psychologist who may have limited time to spend with the child.

In our practice we think we’re in a unique position as family counselors to give you and your child the attention you need to provide an in-depth evaluation and assessment. We  can assess for ADHD, child anxiety and depression. We also do IQ testing as part of the assessment process (many schools require this as part of the diagnostic report). After we provide an assessment we coach parents to help kids learn to express, identify and regulate their emotions.
