Are you tired of struggling with constant thoughts about food, your body, and exercise? I'm passionate about helping you to achieve a balanced relationship with food, find peace and acceptance in your body, and take steps towards a more fulfilling life. I will provide you with support, guidance and compassion as we navigate the growth and changes that come with eating disorder recovery. My approach to treatment is personalized for the unique needs of each of my clients and incorporates a number of evidence-based modalities. As a Certified Eating Disorder Specialist, I know that eating disorders are NEVER just about the food. I will also work with you to identify the underlying issues; including depression, anxiety and life stressors that have contributed to your distressing thoughts and behaviors. I believe that no matter what stage of life you're in, therapy can be beneficial. If you’re ready to work through the challenges that have kept you stuck, I'd love to be that safe space and provide the accountability, support, and empathy you need. If you'd like to talk more before scheduling a session, I offer a free 15 minute phone consultation to answer any questions you have and see if we might be a good fit to work together.

When life feels like it’s spinning faster than you can keep up, it’s natural to feel stressed, stuck, or emotionally drained. Maybe you're waking up each day already exhausted, dreading what’s next. Life can start to feel like a relentless cycle of stress, disappointment, and emotional burnout. You might be wondering: Where do I even start? Who can I talk to that will truly understand? If this sounds like you, please know—you are not alone. As a therapist with over a decade of experience, I’ve supported individuals through some of life’s toughest moments. My clients often come to me feeling lost, disconnected, or simply tired of pretending everything’s fine. What they need most is a safe, nonjudgmental space to speak freely and be heard. That’s where our work begins. I create a space where you can be your authentic self—no masks, no pressure. I listen deeply and ask thoughtful questions to help you explore what’s going on beneath the surface. Together, we’ll uncover patterns, process emotions, and tap into tools that help you feel grounded, capable, and hopeful again. You deserve peace, joy, and a life you love. I offer a FREE 15 minute one time consultation. I have openings, book today.

Hi there, welcome! My name is Dr. Steffanie Grossman (she/her/hers). I am a Psychologist, Certified Eating Disorders Specialist and registered Animal-Assisted Therapist with a small dog/tootsie-roll lookalike named Rockstar. I provide therapy for a wide range of concerns, with specialties in the areas of eating disorders, self-esteem, and LGBTQ+ related concerns. Rockstar is frequently in the room, so you can pet him to self-soothe, look at him to distract or allow yourself to be more open, or to just laugh at when he wants his belly rubs. Therapy is something I am very passionate about, and I truly enjoy helping my clients empower themselves to live the lives they wish to live and increase self-compassion. I hope this page and my website can help you determine if we would be a good team in helping you reach your goals, find empowerment through your struggles, and embrace peace. I'd be happy to talk with you further during a free brief phone consultation to further help decide. I would love to hear from you.

I provide meaning-centered counseling for individuals navigating trauma, chronic pain, and long-standing stress. My practice is grounded in the belief that experiences are held not only as memories or thoughts, but also within the nervous system as patterns shaped over time. When appropriate, I integrate body-based tools and insight-oriented approaches, supporting students who may understand their experiences intellectually yet continue to feel trapped in how their body responds. Work is paced, collaborative, and attentive to context, readiness, and lived experience rather than quick symptom fixes. My services are offered through in-person sessions in Frisco, Texas, and via secure telehealth across the state. My private practice is self-pay. For those wanting to use insurance, I also see clients through Legacy Trails Therapy, where select plans are accepted under supervisory billing. This can be discussed during consultation.

Hi, I’m Chioma Onuorah, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC). I understand that college and graduate school can be exciting, but they can also bring stress, anxiety, depression, burnout, relationship challenges, and uncertainty. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to navigate it by yourself. I provide a warm, supportive, and judgment-free space where you can openly discuss what’s been weighing on you. I work with students experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, mood disorders, substance use, sleep difficulties, and other mental health concerns. My approach is collaborative and personalized. I offer both medication management and psychotherapy, tailoring treatment to your unique needs, goals, and lifestyle. Together, we’ll focus on helping you feel better, build healthy coping skills, and improve your overall well-being. I believe seeking help is a sign of strength, and I’m committed to making mental health care accessible, compassionate, and empowering. Whether this is your first time seeking support or you’re continuing your mental health journey, I look forward to helping you thrive both personally and academically.

Feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or emotionally exhausted in your life or relationship?

My practice is affirming and inclusive of LGBTQIA+ partners and diverse relationship structures.

I have experience in working with a population that suffers with chronic diseases. I have helped clients that struggle with depression, anxiety, and overall adjusting to living with vast medical issues and co-morbidities.

I have enjoyed working together with my clients to figure out their goals and desires.

I am a LMSW licensed in TX. I support folks navigating grief, ADHD, autism, gender and/or sexuality exploration, relationship shifts after gender transition, and life as a child of immigrants. My work is grounded in values and mindfulness, and incorporates practices that help you stay rooted, present, and connected to what really matters. If you’re dealing with something that isn’t listed here but you think we’d vibe, I encourage you to reach out for a consult. Therapy with me isn’t about fitting into a box, it’s about co-creating a space that makes sense for you. I am supervised by Max Casero (LCSW-S).

You’ve always been the one who holds it together. The friend everyone leans on, the one who keeps the peace, even when you're falling apart inside. You’re kind, thoughtful, and always thinking about how others feel—sometimes to the point of losing sight of what you need. Maybe you grew up in a home where speaking up was risky, or you were labeled as “too much.” Now, in college or early adulthood, you feel lost - constantly second-guessing yourself, unsure who you are outside of relationships or achievements. You want to feel more grounded, confident, and in control of your life—but you’re not sure where to start.

People come to me when they are looking for ways out of being trapped, depressed, anxious or stuck. I work with individuals who don't know how to be their true selves - it is my mission them find ways to live an authentic and empowered life. I am able to hold a lot of complexity and nuance for a variety of human needs and experiences. Especially close to my heart is working with the LGBTQ+ population, or anyone who feels they don't fit into what society, parents, friends, or others expect of them. I also enjoy existential deep dives and those who feel overwhelmed by their emotional landscape. You are the expert on yourself - my role is to help you uncover who that self truly is, and help you to respond to that self with courage, connection and authenticity.

Please, allow me to navigate this life-changing journey with you. To be heard without being judged allows us to explore our current state of emotion without the fear of being ridiculed, without the stigma behind mental health, and without the fear of “what will they think of me?” The Goal: To reach a peaceful state of mind. You are not alone.
