ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Grand Prairie, TX

Hi, my name is Cassie Carrasco and I am licensed professional counselor. I specialize in working with adults with trauma. I use evidence-based therapies and somatic experiencing to help heal and reconnect with themselves.

Hi, I’m Susan Melton, LPC. I work with children ages 8+, teens, adults, veterans, and families who may be navigating anxiety, ADHD, autism, emotional challenges, life transitions, or the unique experiences that come with neurodiversity and special needs.

Before becoming a licensed professional counselor, I spent many years working in education and supporting children and families in a variety of settings. I also have over five years of experience working within a private practice environment. These experiences have helped me develop a patient, compassionate, and practical approach to therapy that focuses on helping clients feel safe, understood, and supported.

I especially enjoy working with children ages 8–12, veterans, and families, as well as individuals with ADHD, autism, and other special needs. I am fluent in ASL and strive to create an inclusive and welcoming environment where clients can feel comfortable being themselves.

My goal is to help clients build confidence, improve coping skills, strengthen relationships, and feel more hopeful about moving forward.

Margarita Rice is a double-board-certified psychiatric-mental health and family nurse practitioner. Her education and clinical experience give her a well-rounded perspective on physical and mental well-being. She treats mental health, metabolic health (wellness, weight loss, prediabetes), and hormone health (BHRT for men and women.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with a PhD in Clinical Psychology and over a decade of experience working with adults in medical and mental health settings. I currently practice in both a hospital-based Consultation-Liaison Psychology service and private practice, where I help individuals navigate anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, relationship concerns, health challenges, trauma, and major life transitions.

I have particular experience working with healthcare professionals, first responders, pilots and aviation professionals, and other high-achieving individuals who often carry significant responsibilities while struggling privately. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practice, while also recognizing that meaningful change often comes from understanding the deeper patterns, relationships, and experiences that shape our lives.

I also have a special interest in supporting individuals on weight loss and health-improvement journeys, including those using GLP-1 medications such as Zepbound, Wegovy, or Ozempic. Significant weight loss can bring unexpected emotional, relational, and identity-related challenges, and I enjoy helping clients navigate both the psychological and practical aspects of creating sustainable change.

Whether you are seeking relief from a current struggle, greater self-understanding, or support during a difficult season of life, I strive to create a space where you feel understood, respected, and empowered to move forward.
