I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with extensive experience working with children, teens, adults, and families.

Jerred P. White MA, LCDC, LPC. I earned my graduate degree from Amberton University with a major in Masters of Arts in Professional Counseling and Bachelors degree in Science of Business and Human Development. I attended the Institute of Chemical Dependency school and completed over 4000 hours of chemical dependency counseling in residential and outpatient treatment facilities to become a fully licensed LCDC. I have over 10 years of working with families, individuals, adults, and children.

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'm Alexis, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in North Texas, with 4 years of experience in social work, specifically in pediatrics. I have worked in case management and crisis intervention with children and adolescents. I obtained a Master of Social Work (MSW) from the University of Texas at Arlington and a Bachelor degree in Psychology from Capella University. I have gained valuable expertise working in pediatric and behavioral health hospital settings in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. I obtained my Licensed Master Social Work (LMSW) in the Spring of 2022. I earned my Clinical Social Work License in the winter of 2025 and consider myself to be a dedicated Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I have been practicing child-centered play therapy for one year under supervision and have seen the transformative power of play. In my free time, I commit my time to the local community by volunteering with initiatives such as Cowtown Clean-up, Tarrant Area Food Bank, and Catholic Charities Diocese of Fort Worth, Texas.

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.

I believe therapy works best when you can show up as yourself without judgment, pressure, or feeling like you have to say the “right” thing. I’ve known since I was a junior in high school that I wanted to help people heal from the inside out, and that purpose has stayed with me ever since. For me, therapy isn’t just a job it's my purpose.

I work with clients ages 10+ navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, grief, self-esteem, and life transitions. I’m warm, down-to-earth, and pretty easy to talk to. You don’t have to come to therapy with everything figured out...we will do that together!
