Hi, I’m Pauline, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care. I work with adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, and mood disorders, and I’m passionate about helping each person feel more supported, balanced, and understood. Outside of work, I love being near the water, whether that means the beach, a lake, or swimming whenever I can.
When life feels overwhelming, it's easy to lose sight of yourself while trying to keep everything else together. Anxiety, depression, family conflict, grief, or difficult life experiences can leave you feeling emotionally exhausted, disconnected, or unsure how to move forward. You don't have to keep carrying those burdens alone. I work alongside individuals experiencing anxiety, family issues, stress management, grief and loss, and relationship issues so they can build healthier relationships, regain emotional balance, and reconnect with the life they want to live. Working with adolescents, adults, and seniors, I strive to create a compassionate, supportive environment where you feel genuinely heard, respected, and empowered to create meaningful, lasting change.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Arlington
Finding addiction therapists in Arlington starts with identifying the kind of support that fits your needs. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, substance use, gambling, compulsive behaviors, and concerns that overlap with anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship stress. As you compare therapists, look for training in approaches such as motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, or coordination with medication-assisted care. Some people also work with a prescriber as part of their care team.
Arlington offers a range of mental health care options, with access to nearby communities across the Dallas-Fort Worth area and virtual appointments that can expand your choices. Recovery can change over time, so it helps to find a therapist who uses a respectful, non-judgmental approach and has experience with harm reduction or substance use care. You may also want to compare appointment availability, session structure, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading therapist bios can help you see how they describe their style, specialties, and what to expect in a first session.
Therapy in Arlington 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 you book. Headway makes it easier to compare addiction therapists who are accepting new patients, review their profiles, enter your insurance details, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront. From there, you can browse therapists, review fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
