Greetings! I use my training in Neuroscience and Emotionally Focused Therapy in concert to work effectively through disconnects within yourself and others. I believe in a client-centered approach, unconditional positive regard, and a client-therapist relationship that provides emotional safety and emotional growth. I help my clients integrate their emotions into their lives in a way that is functional and improves their relationships and their quality of life.
Susan M Spruill, LPC-S
Susan Spruill has over 30 years of cumulative experience working with kids, adolescences, individuals and couples. She has a broad background of knowledge working with anxiety, depression, anxiety and ADHD.
I work with adults, couples, and teens, helping people untangle challenges that often feel overwhelming, interconnected, or hard to name. I believe most struggles don’t exist in isolation—they affect our relationships, our emotions, and how we move through the world. My role is to truly get to know you, understand your story, and support you in creating meaningful, lasting change.
My background is both clinical and academic. I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, along with graduate degrees in Philosophy and Sociology, and a bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Communications. I’m also a doctoral candidate in Educational Psychology. This combination allows me to look at your concerns through emotional, relational, and systemic lenses—not just symptom-focused ones.
I specialize in trauma work, relationship therapy, and working with preteens and teens—who are often misunderstood but incredibly important to support early. I’ve trained in EMDR, Gottman Method Couples Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), CBT, Art Therapy, and Conflict & Dispute Resolution. Above all, I value creating a space where you feel safe, respected, and genuinely supported.
I believe therapy should be tailored to each client individually as it is not a “one size fits all" solution. Whether or not you have a “diagnosis”, therapy is incredibly important and is a space where you get to talk about your everyday stressors or your major traumas. It’s up to you. I am dual licensed in Texas and New York.
Hi, I’m Dr. Aminah Abdikadir, DNP, PMHNP-BC. I’ve spent nearly a decade helping individuals improve their mental health through inpatient, outpatient, and telehealth care. I believe in a holistic approach that looks at the whole person mind, body, and environment to create lasting change. My style is warm, collaborative, and focused on helping you feel balanced and empowered as you navigate life’s challenges.
Hi! My name is Shawn and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor in the state of Texas with a passion for providing a high quality of services to individuals struggling with mental health disorders. I earned my Master’s of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Wayland Baptist University in 2009 and have worked diligently in the mental health field since that time.
I graduated from the University of Texas at Tyler with a Master's Degree in Counseling and am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I spent the beginning of my career in mental health working at an MHMR, as well as working with those struggling with addiction and eating disorders.
Hi! I'm Kelley.
I graduated from Southern Methodist University with a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and Religious Studies. I earned my Masters degree from the University of North Texas's Counseling Psychology program.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor (LPC-S), Certified Eating Disorder Specialist-Consultant (CEDS-C), EMDR Certified, and have over 60 hours of training in Internal Family Systems (IFS). With more than a decade of experience under my belt in both treatment center and private practice settings, I am well equipped to help you heal your relationship with food and body image, reclaim your life from anxiety and trauma, and navigate the emotional challenges of PMDD and perimenopause. And if you appreciate a mix of humor, authenticity, and occasional swearing, we’ll likely get along well!

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Allen
Searching for therapists in Allen starts with knowing what kind of support you want from care. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, or major life changes. As you compare options for therapy in Allen, TX, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match your needs. Provider bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or other methods that may fit what you want to work on.
Allen has a smaller local therapy market than nearby Dallas or Plano, so the right match may not be limited to an office close to home. Virtual appointments can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Texas. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand each therapist’s communication style, focus areas, and what a first session may look like.
Therapy in Allen can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for Allen counselors and therapists who match your preferences, review detailed bios, check your estimated out-of-pocket cost, and book directly when you’re ready.
