I am a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 13 years of healthcare experience specializing in men’s health, mental health, hormone optimization, and functional medicine. My approach combines evidence-based psychiatric care with a personalized, root-cause-focused perspective to help clients improve mood, resilience, focus, sleep, and overall well-being. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, ADHD, stress, burnout, and performance-related concerns in men. My goal is to provide high-quality, individualized care in a supportive, judgment-free environment where clients feel heard and empowered.
Hello, I’m David. I work with individuals dealing with stress, anxiety, and major life changes, as well as those adjusting to injuries or ongoing health issues.

Hello, I'm Andrea Davis, a licensed counselor and art therapist with 20 years of experience. I hold credentials as an ATR-BC, ATCS, and LPC-AT-S, specializing in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). I earned degrees in Phenomenological Psychology, Humanistic Psychology, and Art Therapy. My approach is person-centered, integrating art therapy to support children, teens, adults, and veterans facing trauma, grief, and identity challenges in a safe, creative space.
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.
Hello, I'm Alexis, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in North Texas, with 4 years of experience in social work, specifically in pediatrics.

Hi, I’m Jailen! I’m a kid therapist! I work with children and teens ages 5 and up with eating disorders, anxiety, identity struggles, and trauma.
