Anxiety Therapists in Flower Mound, TX

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Registered Play Therapist and EMDR Certified. I work with parents who see their children or teens struggle with anxiety, depression, or have experienced trauma. My practice is focused on working with the entire family system. Many times parents seek services for their child. When they come to my office, we work on helping the parent be a partner in the healing process. My approach is different than other child therapist because I involve the parents in every step of the process and encourage them to be the parents that they want to be. It is hard to see your child suffer. I'm here to help

My primary goal as a counselor is to help clients become healthier. I believe that - Achieving A Healthier You - starts with you making a decision to understand that, ” I need help”.

Dr. Messina & Associates provides cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), psychiatry and telepsychiatry services, and psychological testing to children, adolescents, and adults in Flower Mound and Southlake, TX.

Counseling is about working together in a nonjudgmental and caring environment to meet your goals, bring balance back into your life, and help you harness your own abilities in the healing process. I believe in empowering you to lead and guide your own personal growth within an accepting and trusting counseling relationship. I understand that every person is an individual, with specific emotional issues, life views and wants. I focus on how you are experiencing life in the present moment and what we can do together to provide self exploration, self understanding, and an avenue of balance along your life path.

Others may think you have it together, but on the inside, you’re falling apart. It feels like you can’t keep up with life’s changes, but it’s so hard to ask for help! Life feels out of control, causing you to feel lost, overwhelmed, unfulfilled, and stuck. You are not alone! I help teens and young adults with anxiety, depression, and chronic illness build skills for life’s ups and downs. With therapy, you can recognize, navigate, and decrease anxiety symptoms. Together, we will foster your resiliency, coping skills, and master goals. anxiety can feel scary, but can feel manageable once you know how it works!

I have gradually centered my work around people dealing with trauma, addiction, attachment struggles and OCD because I identify with the experience and have experienced healing myself. Complex trauma, attachment difficulties, addiction and OCD often cause chronic emotional disregulation. The attention grabbing power of the past or the future remove connection with the present and the people in it. Additionally, persistent negative beliefs about oneself, God or others make progress feel too hard or a fleeting and disappointing experience. Helping people find freedom and start living is the passion that fuels my work.

Life is complex, and we need support to overcome our challenges. My calming and supportive presence allows a safe environment for my clients to express their thoughts and feelings freely without any judgment. Once the therapeutic relationships are established, I will guide my clients toward their goals by gaining insights, changing their narratives, and getting connected to their internal resources. I firmly believe that therapy is not a "quick fix," Creating a lasting change involves a deeper exploration of issues and a commitment to work on self.

In the midst of difficult times and challenges, we find opportunity. I believe that the moments we are pushed out of our comfort zone allow for personal growth and healing. I pull from several different approaches including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). I find that this creates a unique counseling experience for each client and provides a collaborative environment to explore.

I typically work with clients experiencing Family Conflict, Divorce, Relationship Issues, LGBTQIA+, and Marital/Pre-Marital issues. I utilize a variety of therapeutic modalities such as Clinical Supervision and Licensed, Family Therapy, Couples Therapy, Gottman Method, and Narrative therapies. I believe that goals are only practical if a client is entirely on board; therefore, goal setting is a collaborative process.

Everyday leaves you feeling more defeated as a parent. You listen to other parents who seem to have it all together but for you it’s just failure, shame, and disappointment.

Life and relationships don't have to be in constant turmoil and a persistent source of pain. My area of expertise lies in assisting with Marriage & Family matters and individual trauma recovery.

I take pleasure in supporting those in Texas who are searching for hope and are striving for sustainable inner healing, peace, and a "sound mind" (2 Timothy 1:7 KJV).

I see couples across the relationship lifespan, whether you're looking to strengthen your relationship or have become stuck in conflict or crisis. Stressors, anxiety, and mis-steps can disrupt your connection, but I collaborate with clients to help you build a caring, secure bond in your relationship.

Do you often feel the need to withdraw from the world to recharge? Maybe you don't jump into new situations as readily as others. You've always felt a nagging sense that you or your child are different from the rest of the world. You worry constantly about being enough or not failing. You overthink and notice things far more than other people you know. You find yourself struggling to keep up with the pace of our busy world and wonder how others seem to do it so easily. You follow the rules, you perform well at work or school, but you still don't feel satisfied with yourself. Or maybe this describes your child and you want to help.

If you struggle with anxiety and want to find peace, joy, and clarity in your life, you have found the right therapist. I know the struggle of feeling on edge, over thinking, irritability, low self worth, and self doubt. Maybe you have difficulty enjoying things in the present moment because you’re constantly "on the go", your mind gets distracted or stressed. I’m more than happy to help you transform these symptoms, get to the root of the issues, and find your inner peace. Therapy with me is more than just talking or venting. I’ll engage you in effective techniques and provide you the tools needed to feel happy.
