I have two graduate degrees in the field (Behavioral Medicine/Health Psychology and Professional Counseling) and am a licensed behavioral health clinician in both Texas & California. My experience includes working with individuals and groups with a wide range of mental health, substance use, and basic counseling issues. I believe we all need help at points of our life and, if we are willing to ask for it, the support and guidance can be invaluable.
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.
Do you find yourself comparing your life to others and wondering why things don’t seem to fall into place for you? Do you struggle with anxiety, or feeling like you’re not good enough, important enough, or that you exist mainly to take care of everyone else?
If you’ve spent years feeling overlooked, misunderstood, excluded, or expected to simply “pull yourself up by your bootstraps,” therapy can offer a safe space to slow down and explore what you’ve been carrying.
Perhaps you were overlooked or hurt in childhood, bullied or excluded as a teenager, or felt like you never quite fit in. Over time, you may have learned to wear a mask so well that, as an adult, it can be difficult to even identify what feels wrong inside.
I can help you acknowledge that pain, find your voice, and develop greater self-compassion. Together, we can explore the experiences that shaped you, recognize your strengths, and build resilience as you move toward a more empowered way of being.
I work with adolescents, young adults, parents, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, self-doubt, life transitions, and the lasting impact of difficult experiences.
I have specialized training in experiential therapies, including expressive arts and Sandtray, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and insight-oriented talk therapy. I create individualized treatment plans based on your needs, goals, and concerns.
You don’t have to keep wearing the mask or carry everything alone. Therapy can be a place to feel seen, understood, and supported as you reconnect with yourself and move forward.
As someone in recovery myself, I understand how heavy addiction can feel. Sometimes we just need someone to sit in the pit with us while we gather the strength to climb out. What keeps me going are the goals that I set after I got out of my own pit. I built a life I love. When I'm not in my office, I'm probably out collecting comic book memorabilia, working on a project on my house, teaching my dogs about the importance of boundaries, or watching Jurassic Park. What keeps you going?
I strive for creating the conditions were humans can regain their curiosity, hope, and a new interactional perspective of themselves. Having also also known love, generosity, tolerance, respect and solidarity. I reject the need for cynicism: under the right conditions one can comfortably adhere to the unconditional confidence in the human potential for self-understanding, tolerance and positive change.

My name is Mysti and I have been a therapist for almost 15 years. I have worked in hosptial settings, agency settings, and private practice. Along with working with clients, I also supervise LPC-Associates who are working on their hours toward full licenure. I have a Master's in Counseling from Dallas Baptist University which was very infuential in recieving my intership at The Samaritan Inn years ago, a homeless shelter in Collin County. I then returned to the INN years later as their Counseling Team Lead and just recently finished my shelter career there as their Chief Program Officer. Treatment areas I love to walk along side are: depression, anxiety, grief/ loss, unexpected life transitions, self identity, faith transitions, cancer journeys, and women's issues.
Change can occur but I want to empower you to accept what you cannot change and come up with an effective plan to change what you can!

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Forney
Searching for therapists in Forney starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. Therapists can help with concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for specialties and approaches that match your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, family therapy, or marriage counseling in Forney, TX. A therapist’s profile can also show how they structure sessions and what you can expect from their style of care.
In a smaller city like Forney, local appointment options may be more limited than in nearby Dallas-area communities. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still helping you see a therapist licensed in Texas. You may also want to compare practical details like appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios closely can help you narrow the list to therapists whose experience, communication style, and schedule fit what you’re looking for.
Therapy in Forney can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you find many therapists who accept insurance, are accepting new clients, and offer virtual or in-person care when available. You can browse therapists in Forney, review profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
