Deborah Gardner

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 5.2 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.

Or, are you a high achieving student, professional or athlete who desires to enhance your performance in academics, athletics, or business? Everyone wants to have more effective, more efficient brain power. We want to perform at our personal peak, without the use of psychotropic medications.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Richardson, TX

Searching for therapists in Richardson starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, therapy approach, and experience match what you want to address. Reading bios can help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or other methods that align with your preferences.

Richardson is close to Plano, Garland, and north Dallas, which can expand your options while local availability may still vary by schedule, specialty, and office location. Some people prefer in-person therapy near home or work, while others choose virtual sessions for easier scheduling. When narrowing your search, compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, free phone consultation options, and the details in each profile. Bios can give you a clearer sense of communication style, session structure, and what to expect before you book.

Therapy in Richardson can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your needs, review availability, enter your insurance details, and book directly when you’re ready.
