At North Texas Family Therapy, our work starts with understanding you… where you come from, your story, and what goals you have. We want to know what patterns are troubling you and what your beliefs are. It’s never about judgment, and always focused on creating a clearer picture of what you’re dealing with, so together we can decide where to go next.

From there, we draw from various evidence-based approaches to support you as best as we can. Our therapists are all trauma-informed and approach healing from a place of understanding. We use a range of approaches, from Health At Every Size (HAES) and body-neutrality for women experiencing disordered eating or body image concerns, to mindfulness and self-compassion practices. Our therapists may use TF-CBT (Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), somatic techniques, attachment-based work, or Solution-Focused Therapy to help each woman meet their goals. Every individual has a unique situation, so we tailor sessions to you and you alone. Sometimes we focus on skill-building, sometimes we process past events, and sometimes we just spend time in a safe space giving you a chance to exhale.

As you work with your therapist, you’ll begin to see how everything you’re discussing and learning are connected to a specific pain you carry. Becoming more comfortable setting boundaries can reduce burnout or resentment, reframing self-criticism and employing self-compassion can soften the shame you are experiencing and improve self-worth. Processing the trauma you endured or the grief living inside you will help you begin seeing yourself more clearly. Learning about mindfulness can help you manage daily stressors without being triggered. And bit by bit, the sense of being “too much” or “not enough” can slowly release its hold on you.

Our clinicians are trauma-informed, LGBTQ+ affirming, and culturally aware. Many of our therapists have advanced training in women’s mental health concerns, reproductive and perinatal issues, and disordered eating. We continue to educate ourselves so we can hold space for the full diversity of each woman’s experience.

If you feel ready to reclaim the parts of you that are waiting underneath the overwhelm, our team is here to do just that.
