ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Southlake, TX

I understand that life can sometimes feel overwhelming, and asking for help can feel impossible at times. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs and goals. I am committed to helping clients gain insight, build confidence, and create positive changes that support their overall well-being.

My philosophy begins inside the heart of my clients. As a former elementary teacher, I learned the valuable lesson that my clients will never care what I know or had to teach them until they knew I cared about them. This lesson is applicable in so many instances, and especially when I counsel. I enjoy getting to know every client on a personal level. I want to know them as a person, and especially what they enjoy most. That is one reason why I am passionate about Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. This technique incorporates what clients are interesting in learning about themselves, which is often to engage and discover their true potential, and in doing so, they are more at ease to have meaningful conversations.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor practicing in Texas (67510). I earned a Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) from Walden University in 2024 and a Master of Arts in Counseling from St. Edward's University in Austin, TX in 2009. I have 15 years of experience as a substance abuse and child psychotherapist. I am also a Clinical Certified Sand Tray Therapist.

My internship was with the Hays Caldwell Council on Alcohol and Drug Abuse's Intensive Outpatient Program for clients who were court mandated to receive treatment.

My dissertation was titled "Designing Organizational Systems to Support Achievement of Performance Goals in Student Mental Health"

Every person has a story. The culmination of experiences in one's life shapes how they view themselves, their relationships, and the world. I have a passion for helping clients celebrate their unique strengths and gifts they share with others. With experiences in both private practice and hospitals, I have noticed a particular need for clients to separate their view of themselves from their current difficulties and circumstances. In spite of where clients may find themselves at the moment, my belief is that they have overcome every difficulty, challenge, and trauma that they have faced up to the present moment. As such, they will withstand their current circumstances, and will again declare victory.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor with years of experience, I am passionate about helping individuals navigate a range of challenges. My expertise includes supporting women experiencing anxiety, depression, overthinking, or emotional burnout. I also specialize in helping individuals improve their self-esteem, establish and maintain healthy boundaries, practice self-care and mindfulness.

I hold a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of Texas at Brownsville, followed by a Master of Education in Guidance and Counseling from the University of Texas at Rio Grande Valley. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space for you to begin your journey toward healing.

I am Angelina Ortiz, a licensed professional counselor (LPC) specializing in psychotherapy. I support individuals navigating anxiety, depression, self-injurious behaviors, trauma, and relationship issues. I offer both in-person sessions and virtual therapy for clients throughout Texas. My passion to help other on their healing path to live calm and fulfilling lives has always been my life's purpose as I believe people are deserving of peace and happiness in their lives, no matter their story.

Finding the right mental health provider can feel like a big step — and I want you to know you're already in the right place.

I'm Abioye, a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with years of experience helping people work through anxiety, depression, PTSD, mood disorders, and psychosis. I see clients ages 6 and up, so whether you're seeking support for your child, yourself, or a loved one, I'm here for your whole family.

When your mind never seems to slow down, it's easy to feel emotionally drained, overwhelmed, and disconnected from the life you want to be living. Anxiety, depression, constant stress, or painful experiences can make it difficult to be fully present with yourself and the people you care about. You don't have to keep carrying that weight alone. I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, ADHD, depression, stress management, and trauma so they can quiet the constant mental noise, build healthier ways of coping, and feel more confident in their everyday lives. I work with adults, adolescents, and children because I believe healing begins when you feel genuinely understood, supported, and empowered to take meaningful steps toward lasting change.
