Deborah Gardner

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 25 mi away • Plano, TX


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.

Britany Myers

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 21 mi away • Addison, TX


I believe that healing happens when people feel truly seen, heard, and accepted. As a fun-loving person who is still a child at heart, I strive to create a welcoming, authentic, and nonjudgmental space where clients of all ages can feel comfortable being themselves. My goal is to meet you where you are, honor your unique experiences, and walk alongside you as you navigate life’s challenges.

I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and adults who are experiencing the effects of trauma, anxiety, and other challenges that impact daily functioning, relationships, and overall well-being. I am also passionate about providing affirming and supportive care to members of the LGBTQIA+ community, ensuring that every client feels respected, valued, and empowered throughout the therapeutic process. Additionally, I am proficient in American Sign Language (ASL) and am committed to fostering accessible and inclusive care for members of the Deaf and hard-of-hearing communities.

My approach combines compassion with evidence-based practices. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-focused counseling, and the SYMBIS Premarital Assessment. Whether you are seeking support for personal growth, healing from past experiences, strengthening relationships, or managing life's stressors, I am committed to helping you build resilience, discover your strengths, and create meaningful change.

I believe that every person deserves a space where they can feel safe, understood, and empowered to grow. My hope is to help you build on your strengths, overcome obstacles, and move toward a life that feels more connected, balanced, and fulfilling.
