Career Counseling Therapists in Dallas, TX

Welcome! I’m Rachelle Ryan, a National Board Certified Clinical Psychotherapist. Life experiences can feel heavy and challenging, but you don't have to struggle—and you don't have to go through them alone. As your therapist, I will guide you and equip you with tools to help you reach your desired destination. No two people or journeys are the same, which is why your therapy experience will be intentionally created uniquely for you.

Are you feeling overwhelmed or stressed about life? Are you feeling stuck and wanting a change or to make a transition in your personal life or in your career? Looking to work on bettering the relationships in your life? Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, or relationship conflict you are not alone. My goal is to help you process your concerns, decide on goals you want to achieve and develop a realistic plan for potential change. I am passionate about creating healthy individuals, couples, and families as well as empowering parents and caregivers.

I’m not your typical therapist. I'm real. I'm approachable. And I don't think therapy should be some stale, clinical, sterile experience. That doesn’t sound like a great therapy experience to me! I work with women who are seeking change in their life – related to career, social life, personal development – but don’t know where to start or how to make positive change happen. Within the therapy setting I create a welcoming environment by taking on a solution focused approach, utilizing empathy, challenging you when appropriate, and using humor at times.

On the surface, things are going well, but maybe you've felt anxious or sad for a long time. Relationships, work, children- the responsibilities just keep piling up, and you're downright overwhelmed. You know that finding balance is important, but you often wonder what that even means. At the same time, you realize something has to change. Life can be painful. Therapy doesn't have to be and my goal is to make it less scary, help you feel heard, and encourage you to look within yourself to access the strength and tools that will propel your life forward. Let's connect!

Our psychological, emotional, and social well being is an important aspect of our overall health. In fact, when our mental health is out of balance it could have a negative impact on our physical health and vice versa. Common factors that affect our mental health include loss of a loved one, medical diagnosis, relational and family issues, difficulty finding life/work balance, job loss or work dissatisfaction, life transitions, and past/current traumatic events. These are part of living and being human. Counseling is one resource that could help you get through these difficult times, to process your feelings and learn coping tools.

Kristina McCray, M.S., LSSP, LPC is a School Psychologist and a Licensed Professional Counselor for the state of Texas. She has experience with working with people of all ages, cultures, and backgrounds on a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD, Bipolar, Schizophrenia, Autism Spectrum Disorder, personality disorders, substance addiction, identity problems, self-esteem problems, intellectual disabilities, and ADHD. She has experience in working with families, couples, individuals, and groups.

I'm so glad you stopped by! I am a solution focused, person-centered, EMDR trained counselor who offers a wide variety of approaches. Counseling should never be a "one size fits all" solution. Working with me is a journey into mindfulness, self-awareness, and personal growth. My office is a safe space, and I would be delighted to see you there. I provide Telehealth to the entire state of Texas, and in-person counseling to Collin and Dallas counties. I also provide Supervision to LPC-Associates. I have an easily accessible and comfortable private office situated on 190 between Hwy 75 and the Dallas North Tollway.

Balancing freedom and constraints in our every day lives leaves many of us with anxiety, depression, health concerns, family issues and work stress. Coping with anxiety, depression, can negatively and significantly affect your ability to live fully and openly. I see clients in all life-stages and their evolution as individuals. I work in both group and in individual settings to ensure that clients have the access to care they need.

Life can be hard and unfair from time to time. My desire is to provide the skills, clarity and a sense of control when life is turned upside down. Counseling is not just a job for me but, a passion. I enjoy helping those who are ready to move forward but may not know how or feel like they are unable. Each person is different, and I enjoy the challenge of working through what seems like impossible hurdles to clients at the time. After the hard work of investing in oneself, clients often enjoy feelings of accomplishment and satisfaction when their lives change for the better as they overcome those hurdles.

You tried so damn hard, but STILL feel like walking in knee-deep mud. Masking your depression and anxiety is no longer a piece of cake. Your mood is low; energy is heavy. Everyday is rinse and repeat. You never seem to get a break. You wonder, "how many fk-ing life lessons am I supposed to have to call it done?" Your body can't take it any longer, and now you notice your mood is affecting your career...and your family. The harder you try, the deeper you sink. You intuitively sense that something is off, but you have no idea WHY you're stuck, and more importantly HOW to get unstuck.

Moving from one environment to a new one physically, mentally, emotionally or all at once can be overwhelming to say the least! Going from a dual income household to being a single parent, moving locations, adapting to new communities, converting religions or making career changes? Leaving a life you knew behind and jumping into your new one takes a lot of adjusting. You are not alone, I am here to support you in your journey with Mental Wellness. Prioritizing time for your Mental Health will help navigate and allow you to adapt appropriately to your circumstance

Youth and adults who come to me often struggle with social-emotional and behavioral issues affecting academic progress, job functioning, peer/family relationships and self-image. These issues are often rooted in family conflict, identity confusion and trauma and can lead to more serious issues of anxiety and depression. As an interventionist, I will first help you resolve interpersonal conflicts and move outward to address family relational, social, academic, cultural and spiritual functioning.

I love working with adults and couples who are ready to find a solution to their problems. Individuals experiencing difficult life situations, depression, anxiety, mood swings, addiction, loss of identity, and low self-esteem. Couples going through marital conflict, intimacy issues, and infidelity. I enjoy working with clients on career counseling, life skills, and life coaching. I also specialize in counseling other therapists and providers. Those of us in the helping profession need to take care of our mental health too!
