I provide practical ways to approach some of life's most difficult challenges. I offer respect, non-judgement and empathy so that the therapeutic relationship gives you the opportunity for awareness that allows you to grow and find new ways of thinking, feeling and behaving. My clinical experience has been in counseling Adults, Children and Adolescents.

As a psychologist and Lacanian psychoanalyst, I believe that psychotherapy works best when you feel free to express and explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences-including the ones that feel difficult to put into words. Words have the power both to hurt and to heal. I am trained to listen and intervene in a way that can have many benefits, including relief from suffering and substantive, lasting changes such as personal growth, increased relationship satisfaction and life fulfillment, and an improved ability to work and succeed. I provide a comfortable, professional environment in which I aim to help you meet your goals.

My ideal client is someone looking for greater self-exploration and seeking inner harmony. They want to be mentally and physically balanced while striving to be their best self. They want growth and maturation and to align with their greater purpose. They're looking for guidance by getting back connected with their inner source through the process of therapy and exploring their experiences. My ideal client is looking to be heard, understood, and attended to assuage emotional disturbances, life difficulties, and cognitive dissonances. I work with teens, young adults, adults, couples, and athletes.

Through my experience, I have to come to learn that counseling is most beneficial when possibilities of hope, healing, and action are developed through meaningful conversations. I see that my role as a therapist is to help patients to explore their life's narratives such that it enables them to explore new alternatives in order to develop new meaning in theirs lives.

I am a mental health provider that incorporates faith and skills to help individuals and family systems to reconnect with purpose and a balanced, fulfilled life.

No one gets to adulthood without living through painful experiences. You may be feeling the effects of a single traumatic incident (sexual victimization, a tragic natural disaster, or the sudden loss of a dear one), or you may be struggling with the weight of years of hurtful events. The term "trauma" seems like a buzzword these days, but for some of us, trauma has deeply influenced our lives. When we experience suffering, we can feel like it becomes our identity. But it doesn't have to be that way. Healing from trauma -- single incident or multiple events -- is possible.

Whether you can’t seem to manage your own impulses, anxiety or pain, or someone else’s choices have left you feeling stuck and in pain, it’s often hard to find a single safe person to telI. I want to be a safe place for you, where you feel it’s okay to be who you are. Together we can take a look at which ways of thinking and reacting are helping you reach your goals, and which parts of yourself may have helped you get to where you are but are now not as effective in helping you move forward. As you learn to see your whole story and learn new tools to respond in ways that line up with your true value, healing begins.

All too often, children and young adults are not given enough credit for how challenging this time of their lives can be. My ideal clients range from school-aged children and teens to young adults working through life transitions. I support individuals, and when appropriate, the entire family system, in navigating life's stressors. Further, as an educational consultant, I help families investigate and solidify the right educational environment for their children. School fit is crucial and I am their partner in navigating a pathway to success.

Something is bothering you. Maybe it has always been there, or maybe it just reared its ugly head. Whatever the case – a hurt, a wound, a trauma - it leaves you feeling disoriented, unsure of which way is your true north. You’ve told yourself countless times, or heard well-meaning friends and relatives say, “Just get over it!” Yet, try as you might, those words are a dead end. Every step seems to take you further away from the things that matter most: your relationships, your passions, and worst of all, your sense of self.

Are you struggling with making a change but afraid to make that step? Are you in a relationship that's painful, or do you find yourself surrounded by friends but have no one to talk to? I've worked with hundreds of clients just like this and I can help you. Hi, I'm Dr. Jan Scott and I've had a successful psychotherapy practice in the Dallas-Forth area for over 40 years, and I would love to hear about your unique needs.

We all are capable of living happy and healthy lives. Over the years, I have supported the diverse needs of my clients through the strength of the therapeutic relationship, nurturing the trust and acceptance required for positive change. I consider it an honor to embark on this journey with you, respecting your experience as it has provided a foundation for healing. I would like to help guide you in discovering personal balance and individualized self-worth, as we work to reveal the seemingly lost or hidden strengths buried within.

I specialize in three types of clients - couples hanging on by a thread, men who are less than thrilled at the idea of attending therapy, and individuals that live under a constant state of performance pressure. As someone who has lived and survived all three of these scenarios personally, I've got a ton of empathy and a box of tools ready for people motivated to achieve change. Whether you're picking up the pieces from infidelity, exhausted from fighting about the same tired topics, or struggling to escape the voices in your head that beat you down, I'm honored to pull up a chair next you and begin sorting through the mess.

My ideal client is one primarily motivated for change. I'm not an "ah huh, mmmm, I see" therapist. I am very active in sessions so my client wants honest, direct feedback and education on issues and new skills for more success. I am also patient, seasoned and aware that fear and habits make change hard, so I offer significant support and positive encouragement. My therapy involves Cognitive/Behavioral techniques meaning: understanding you "head chatter" and skills to decrease or make more positive (often driven by anxiety), and changing or creating "actions" that increase positive results and confidence.
