Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Forney, TX

My name is Dr. Jessica Sanchez and I am a Spanish-speaking Licensed Professional Counselor and Chemical Dependency Counselor. I graduated with my Bachelor of Science from Lamar University in 2004 and became a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor in 2008. In 2024, I graduated with a Doctorate of Psychology from the Walden University.

I have a passion for helping people navigate life's challenges. Seeking help can feel like a big step, but it is also a powerful one. I offer a collaborative and nonjudgemental space for discovering strengths and with helping you feel empowered.

Hello, and welcome. As a National Board Certified Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), I am passionate about creating a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel comfortable exploring their thoughts, emotions, and life experiences. I believe counseling is a collaborative process built on trust, empathy, and genuine connection, and I strive to help each client feel heard, valued, and empowered throughout their journey.

I have experience supporting individuals facing anxiety, stress, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, relationship challenges, and emotional difficulties while helping clients build resilience, improve emotional wellness, and gain deeper self-understanding.

I served over 15 years in the military and had the opportunity to travel and work with remarkable individuals around the world. During my service, I was fortunate to help military members and their families through a wide range of professional and personal issues. These experiences not only enriched my life but also fueled my sense of adventure. Today, I continue to explore the outdoors and new places with my family.

Seeking help can be the first step to acquire greater understanding and insight into our lives and relationships.
