Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Grand Prairie, TX covered by United Healthcare

If you’re the one everyone depends on but you feel anxious, burned out, or emotionally drained, you don’t have to keep pushing through alone. I work with adults who are high-functioning on the outside but overwhelmed on the inside, especially women, professionals, parents, caregivers, and veterans navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, burnout, and major life transitions.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) and over 20 years of experience across diverse healthcare settings. As a veteran, I bring personal understanding of military culture and chronic stress. My approach is collaborative, culturally responsive, and judgment-free, blending evidence-based medication management with supportive, real-world conversation.

If you’re looking for care that feels thoughtful, respectful, and tailored to your life, not rushed or one-size-fits-all, invite you to schedule a consultation and take the first step toward feeling more grounded and supported.

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.

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional with over 15 years of experience supporting adults. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, ADHD, emotional overwhelm, self-worth, and relationship challenges, and I also work with couples seeking stronger communication and connection. My style is warm, collaborative, and relational, creating a space where you can show up as you are. Together, we’ll understand the patterns keeping you stuck, build on your strengths, and create meaningful, lasting change.

I earned my Master of Science in Social Work at the University of Texas at Arlington in 2003. I had the privilege of starting in the field of sexual abuse/violence, which began my real-life education. I've continued my study of trauma, and in family dynamics. This continues to shape my growth. I have years of experience working in psychiatric hospitals with those struggling with severe mental illness. The one thing that I've learned and want to share is this: people can (and do!) get better.

I am a warm and creative counselor dedicated to helping clients reach their full potential. I enjoy working with individuals ages 3 through adulthood, guiding them on their mental health journey through empathy, collaboration, and goal setting. By using research-based practices, I strive to empower each person to grow, heal, and become the best version of themselves.

Clients describe me as someone who’s compassionate, but who will “tell it like it is.” I believe that most problems in our relationships and well-being come from unmet needs in childhood. I help my clients learn to heal through mindfulness, reparenting, and finding a sense of safety through Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) or somatic therapy. At the same time, we need to identify and challenge negative beliefs that we have about ourselves and the world. This is a process called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Through therapy, we can develop self-awareness, healthy boundaries, and assertive communication. These are skills we can all learn to help us feel better and work towards the life and healthy relationships we want.

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 am a licensed mental health counselor in both Texas and Washington State, trained to work with clients who struggle with depression, anxiety, relationship issues and grief.

I support individuals facing anxiety and depression, often rooted in past trauma. Many of my clients carry painful beliefs like “I’m not enough” or “I’m a burden.” They seek relief from overwhelming thoughts, greater balance, and healthier relationships. Using EMDR and trauma-informed care, I help process difficult experiences, release old wounds, and build coping skills, boundaries, self-worth, and confidence to live more fully in their daily lives.
