Jonathan Todd

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 2 mi away • Farmers Branch, TX


I work with adults who feel stuck in patterns they understand intellectually but have difficulty changing, often related to early trauma, complex family dynamics, or relationships. You may find yourself disconnected from yourself or others, struggling with shame, boundaries, people-pleasing, or a sense of who you are. Together, we can slow down, get curious about what’s happening, and explore what might be possible.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 2.9 mi away • Dallas, TX


Life can shift unexpectedly-and when it does, the stress, trauma, or emotional pain can leave you feeling lost,

isolated, or overwhelmed. Whether you're healing from abuse, facing a major transition, navigating

relationship stress, or coping with anxiety or depression, therapy can offer a path toward clarity, peace, and

renewal. You're not alone.

Renata Rhodes

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual & in-person • 4.7 mi away • Plano, TX


If you’re the one everyone depends on but you feel anxious, burned out, or emotionally drained, you don’t have to keep pushing through alone. I work with adults who are high-functioning on the outside but overwhelmed on the inside, especially women, professionals, parents, caregivers, and veterans navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, burnout, and major life transitions.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) and over 20 years of experience across diverse healthcare settings. As a veteran, I bring personal understanding of military culture and chronic stress. My approach is collaborative, culturally responsive, and judgment-free, blending evidence-based medication management with supportive, real-world conversation.

If you’re looking for care that feels thoughtful, respectful, and tailored to your life, not rushed or one-size-fits-all, invite you to schedule a consultation and take the first step toward feeling more grounded and supported.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 2.4 mi away • Dallas, TX


I strive for creating the conditions were humans can regain their curiosity, hope, and a new interactional perspective of themselves. Having also also known love, generosity, tolerance, respect and solidarity. I reject the need for cynicism: under the right conditions one can comfortably adhere to the unconditional confidence in the human potential for self-understanding, tolerance and positive change.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 5.8 mi away • Plano, TX


Do you find yourself comparing your life to others and wondering why things don’t seem to fall into place for you? Do you struggle with anxiety, or feeling like you’re not good enough, important enough, or that you exist mainly to take care of everyone else?

If you’ve spent years feeling overlooked, misunderstood, excluded, or expected to simply “pull yourself up by your bootstraps,” therapy can offer a safe space to slow down and explore what you’ve been carrying.

Perhaps you were overlooked or hurt in childhood, bullied or excluded as a teenager, or felt like you never quite fit in. Over time, you may have learned to wear a mask so well that, as an adult, it can be difficult to even identify what feels wrong inside.

I can help you acknowledge that pain, find your voice, and develop greater self-compassion. Together, we can explore the experiences that shaped you, recognize your strengths, and build resilience as you move toward a more empowered way of being.

I work with adolescents, young adults, parents, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, self-doubt, life transitions, and the lasting impact of difficult experiences.

I have specialized training in experiential therapies, including expressive arts and Sandtray, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and insight-oriented talk therapy. I create individualized treatment plans based on your needs, goals, and concerns.

You don’t have to keep wearing the mask or carry everything alone. Therapy can be a place to feel seen, understood, and supported as you reconnect with yourself and move forward.
