Hello beautiful! My name is Monica Davis, Licensed Professional Counselor. My journey to becoming a therapist started in 2008 and has not been traditional by any means. I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Human Development and Family Studies at Indiana University Bloomington and then later obtained a Master of Arts degree in Counseling from Prairie View A&M University in Prairie View, Texas. I enjoy working with children, adults, and families as it has always been my long-life mission to strengthen and empower families.
I work hard to create a safe, empathic, and authentic environment. I believe I can best help clients by listening to their story and being a fellow traveler in their lives. I have found a passion for working with a great array of individuals but particularly enjoy working with families, couples, the LGBTQ+ community, and sex therapy. I find the best work I do is simply when I connect with a client. I have my masters from SMU and have done specialized training in Gottman, EFT, and sex therapy.

My name is Keri Kendall, I am a Board Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. I believe prioritizing your mental health is the key to living a well balanced life. Healthcare should always be about customer service. and putting you first is our business. Reaching out for help is the hardest step in the process, so congratulations your journey starts today.
I work collaboratively with children, tweens, and teens, creating an environment that is fun and nurturing. I believe that the unique individual identity of each child is crucial and works to provide them with the best therapy that allows them to flourish. I use talk therapy, play therapy, and mindfulness in my approach, and I specialize in working with clients who are struggling with ADHD, anxiety, bullying, depression, grief, self-harm, stress, and family conflict.
Hello, I am Melendra. I believe that there is no one approach that will fit all clients, I tailor my approach to each client, ultimately assisting in understanding how their life experiences shape who we are today. I strive to provide a gentle and warm experience, ensuring clients are comfortable within the therapy setting and process through a genuine relationship.
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with
over 10 years of experience helping
people work through life challenges and
the negative thought processes that keep
them stuck. A lot of my work is about
helping clients become emotionally
resilient, using mindfulness and other
practical tools from the theories that fit
each person best. If you're carrying
anxiety, unresolved trauma,
or strain in your closest relationships, you
don't have to sort it out on your own. I
work with teenagers, adults and seniors, including a
lot of men who didn't expect therapy to
be for them.
With over 20 years of experience working in diverse settings, I support children, adolescents, and adults as they navigate challenges connected to the past, present, and future. As a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC-S) in Texas, I am passionate about the transformative power of therapy and growth that can happen when clients feel safe, supported, and understood. I consider it a privilege to walk alongside clients as they navigate difficult seasons, make meaningful changes, reconnect with their strengths, and move toward healing.
I work with those who are juggling the demands of work, relationships, family, and everyday life while feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, or never quite "good enough." Many experience burnout, anxiety, ADHD, body image concerns, divorce, or major life transitions. Therapy helps them quiet self-criticism, set healthier boundaries, manage stress, and build a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in DeSoto
Searching for therapists in DeSoto starts with understanding what kind of support fits your needs. You may want help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or a major life change. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and experience that match what you want to focus on. Provider bios can show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or couples counseling.
DeSoto is close to Dallas, Cedar Hill, Lancaster, Duncanville, Grand Prairie, and Irving, but local appointment options may still vary by schedule, specialty, and office location. Virtual therapy can expand your search while keeping access to therapists licensed in Texas. As you narrow your options, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in DeSoto 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 therapists who match your preferences, verify your insurance, view estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you are ready.
