Anger Management Therapists in Dallas

I am a somatic psychotherapist with over 30 years in the behavioral health field. I started in addictions and worked toward trauma and the body. I am licensed in multiple states, a supervisor for new LMSWs, and an assistant trainer for somatic experiencing across the U.S.

I have worked in mental health for 10 years, and before starting my own practice, "Time to Heal Therapy, PLLC", I worked in many settings: inpatient/residential/php for eating disorders, school-based therapy, non-profit and medicaid facilities, and traditional outpatient therapy clinics. I'm a gentle and empathetic therapist, and I also give clients direct skills to help aid them in their healing journey.

If you’re not feeling like your best self right now—if sadness, anxiety, grief, or even hopelessness is weighing you down—please know this: you are not alone, and healing is possible. You deserve a space where your voice is heard, your story is honored, and your soul is safe. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I walk alongside adolescents, couples, and families through seasons of pain, growth, and transformation. Whether you're navigating life transitions, coping with grief, healing from trauma, or managing depression and anxiety, I bring both compassion and expertise to guide your journey. My foundation in trauma-informed care was shaped by my years as a School Counselor with Dallas ISD and further deepened through my work with the Children’s Advocacy Center of Collin County. These experiences taught me that healing is not a straight path—but a sacred one. In our sessions, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan that speaks to your needs. My schedule offers flexibility, including evenings and weekends because I know life doesn’t pause when we need help the most. Transformation doesn’t happen overnight, but with each step forward, you reclaim more of yourself. You are worthy of peace, joy, and the life you envision. Let’s walk toward that future together!

I believe that everyone can benefit from therapy. When you give yourself the gift of therapy, you give yourself the best chance at a fulfilling life. I help adults, single parents, and any family system balance the connection between mind, body, and spirit. As a therapist, I strive to be the mediator that propels others forward. My goal is to help others tap into their flow state and become their optimal selves. This is possible by acknowledging how our prior experiences have shaped us, conditioning our strongest beliefs about ourselves and others. We become our best when we begin to heal from this conditioning and forge a new way of living that serves needs without taking away from others. Anyone working with me will undoubtedly experience feeling of being truly heard, seen, understood, informed, challenged, and given a space to freely express thoughts and feelings without judgement or condemnation. Clients will be able to increase their awareness of self, identify barriers to progress, and be equipped with the skills necessary to cope with presenting problems.

Hello! I’m Kavina Hall-McLeod, though you’re welcome to call me Kavina or Ms. K. I’m a Licensed Psychotherapist dedicated to helping children and families navigate complex emotions, strengthen relationships, and move through life’s most challenging moments with confidence and clarity. I recognize that each individual and family system is unique, and I draw from a curated blend of evidence-based therapeutic approaches to support meaningful and lasting growth. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Sociology from the University of Oregon and a master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Southern California, where I was honored with the Order of Arete—USC’s highest award for graduate students who demonstrate exceptional leadership and impactful service to the university and the broader community. Over the past 15 years, I have worked across diverse clinical settings and contributed to research at several of the world’s leading institutions, including UC Berkeley and Stanford. These experiences have enriched my clinical perspective and allow me to provide high-level, nuanced care to the clients I serve. Beyond my professional training, I’m a wife, mother of three (including a neurodivergent child), daughter, sister, and former scholarship collegiate athlete. These roles bring a grounded, real-life understanding of resilience, balance, and the many layers that shape family life.

I am a licensed therapist who believes that healing begins in a space where you feel genuinely seen, heard, and accepted. I strive to create a nonjudgmental, emotionally safe environment where your experiences and feelings are honored as valid and meaningful. Whether you’re seeking an empathic ear to help you process life’s stressors or you’re ready to engage in deeper healing work, I will meet you where you are. My primary and preferred modality is EMDR, which I use to help clients process trauma, distressing memories, and long-standing emotional patterns in a way that is both structured and empowering. I also integrate experiential therapy, play therapy, solution-focused techniques, and narrative therapy, allowing our work together to be flexible, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs. I believe therapy should not be one-size-fits-all, and I value approaches that honor both emotional depth and practical change. In our work together, you can expect compassion, honesty, and respect. I believe your feelings make sense in the context of your life, and they deserve space rather than judgment. Therapy with me is not about “fixing” you — it’s about understanding, healing, and helping you reconnect with your strengths, resilience, and sense of self. No matter where you are in your journey, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

I have been seeing clients since 2016, and am a LPC supervisor. I opened LiveWell counseling, along with my husband, and 2019. Our first location is in Amarillo, and Dallas is our second location. I love Therapy! I love my clients! Creating a safe space for my clients gives me tremendous purpose. I’m a mom to three adult children, and a fairly new Dallas resident! I still commute to Amarillo to care for those clients of mine and manage the business.
