Grief & Loss Therapists in Dallas

Hello and welcome! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works primarily with adults through major life transitions, work and career stress, relational stress, Anxiety, trauma, and Depression. As a child of immigrant parents, I have a unique perspective when it comes to culture and race and pride myself on working cross-culturally. I practice from a place of curiosity, humility, and mutual respect.

Eliza Creedon is a dual board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health and Adult-Gerontology Acute Care Nurse Practitioner. She completed her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Auburn University. She then earned her Master of Science in Acute Care Nursing from Texas Woman's University and her Post-Graduate Certificate in Psychiatric Mental Health from Regis College. Prior to completing her advanced degree, Eliza worked in Emergency and Trauma Centers in Georgia and the Dallas-Fort Worth Area. She has worked at Level I Trauma Centers within the Medical City and Piedmont Healthcare systems.

I am an experienced clinical social worker with over 25 years in the helping professions and nearly 20 years in private practice. I work in depth with adults across many life stages and value a collaborative approach that feels thoughtful, grounded, and encouraging. Earlier in my career, I was a middle school English teacher. Reading the fairy tales my students wrote sparked a lasting interest in how people make meaning of their lives and how personal stories shape the way we think, feel, and act. Over time, this led me to pursue advanced training in psychotherapy. Clients often describe me as a good listener who is practical and reflective, helping them sort through what matters most and find a way forward that feels right to them.

Hello! My name is Alysse Shropshire. I founded my practice as a result of my personal journey and professional commitment to healing. I grew up in a turbulent and dysfunctional environment that all too often did not feel safe. I lived with anxious and perfectionist ideas that if I could just be perfect then nothing bad could happen to me. My formative years were spent walking on eggshells and being broken down until I believed that I was not good enough. ​In recent years, as I've navigated the challenges of infertility, I have come to recognize the profound emotional and psychological toll of reproductive trauma. The struggle of trying to balance ambiguous grief with maintaining hope for the future. The anxiety that comes with having complete lack of control. Unfortunately, I am not alone and mine is not a unique story. I started this practice with the intention to provide clients with access to all of the elements of therapy that have made such a difference to me in my own life. The only constant in life is change and change can be what you make of it! My personal testimony is that while healing can be long and arduous, it is well worth the effort to change your life from surviving to thriving.

Hi, I’m Linda! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with teens and adults navigating stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, family conflict, life transitions, and other various issues. I approach counseling from a Christian worldview while meeting every client where they are and creating a space that feels safe, supportive, and respectful of all backgrounds.

Hi I'm Shanna my passion for this work comes from a deep conviction: it only takes ONE PERSON in ONE GENERATION to change THE REST OF THEIR FAMILY LINEAGE. I truly believe in the power of you, and I get fired up when a new client reaches out, ready to tackle their traumas and take control of their life. I’m here to help you make peace with the past, find strength in the present, and bravely step into your future. ‍My path to becoming a therapist began with a natural knack for mediation and empathy, stemming from my own experiences growing up in a dysfunctional family. I dove into graduate work at Texas Woman's University, driven by a simple truth: 'I loved people.' Through my own journey of healing via therapy, reading lot's of books, a loving relationship with God and 12-Step programs, I gained profound insights into transforming personal challenges into powerful catalysts for change. Now, as a business owner, I am a living testament to post-traumatic growth, and I live to see others turn the ashes of their past into a beautiful, thriving present. My therapeutic approach is highly personalized, molding a range of powerful methods to fit your specific needs. I work hard to pay attention to and appreciate what happens in the room – because so much is missed when the body is ignored. We believe the body speaks a language all on its own, and we work to give it a voice in the room to facilitate deeper healing.

Hi there, I'm Cara—a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified EMDR therapist with over 20 years of experience. I started out in the health and wellness field, training both myself and others to excel in their pursuit of physical fitness. However, I soon discovered the importance of mental and emotional health. Many of the physically fit individuals I worked with were unhappy, stressed or lonely. Over the years, I have pursued extensive training to treat a variety of mental health issues and have accumulated a wealth of knowledge from each of the hundreds of individuals I’ve had the opportunity to work with. It is my calling and passion to join others on their healing journey.

You might look like you’re holding it together on the outside, but inside you feel anxious, overwhelmed, or unsure of yourself. Maybe you’re constantly second-guessing your decisions, stuck in people-pleasing patterns, or trying to make sense of relationships that left you feeling confused, dismissed, or emotionally drained. I work with women who are tired of pushing through and ready to understand what’s actually underneath their anxiety, self-doubt, or emotional exhaustion. Many of my clients have experienced emotionally unsafe or invalidating relationships, whether that showed up in family dynamics, romantic partnerships, or long-term relational stress that slowly chipped away at their sense of self-trust. You don’t need to label your experiences as “trauma” to belong here. If something shaped how safe you feel, how you relate to others, or how you see yourself, it matters. My goal is to help you feel more grounded in your body, clearer in your decisions, and more connected to who you really are. Therapy with me is collaborative, honest, and paced with care. You don’t need to have the right words or a clear plan. We’ll figure things out together. I offer in-person therapy in Dallas and virtual therapy across Texas.

Hi, I'm Ba Bunansa, LPC (like "Baa Baa Black Sheep"). I provide empowering, authentic care for LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, and neurodivergent individuals. My approach blends expertise with humor and ADHD energy to create therapy that actually works for real life.

My Therapy Philosophy Hello! My name is Alicia Solomon, and I am a counseling and behavioral therapist that specializes in marriage and family therapy. I currently provide in-person & virtual online therapy here at Positive Vibes Psychotherapy, PLLC throughout Texas. My goal is to empower each individual that I work with to become the best version of themselves. I look forward to working with you as you start your journey to success. Background & Education: I was born in Texas and raised in Arkansas. I lived in Washington, DC during my early adult years. I have a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and Business Management from Texas A&M University-Texarkana. I graduated from LeTourneau University in Longview, TX with a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling and Marriage and Family therapy. I also have a master’s level certification in Applied Behavioral Analysis from Capella University. I am a National Certified Counselor and a Licensed Professional Counselor. In my free time, I love to be creative, design things, travel, read good books, meet new people, and try new things that are positive and bring me joy. I have a digital magazine, I am a self-starter, and I love to share positive and empowering information with my followers around the world through conferences and podcasting.

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.

Whether you’ve lost a loved one or feel you've lost yourself, you're struggling with the question of “why” or “why me," you're heartbroken or the one who did the breaking, I'm here to help. I am dual licensed as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Associate and Licensed Professional Counselor Associate and receiving supervision from Diana Walla, MS, LPC-S, LMFT-S. I received my Master of Science in Counseling from Southern Methodist University’s CACREP-accredited program in Dallas, TX, which included completing my clinical sequence in a private practice setting working with individuals, couples, and groups experiencing relational and familial conflict, anxiety, depression, and grief. As a former D1 athlete and corporate executive of more than a decade, I have unique background and experience in high stress, demanding environments that I believe helps me serve and relate to many clients. There’s healing and hope for those ready to take action. Together we can improve your wellbeing and work towards achieving your therapeutic goals.

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.

Hi, I’m Leslie. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with formal training in counseling and several years of experience providing trauma-informed care to adults. I completed my graduate education at University of North Texas with a MS in Rehabilitation Counseling and became licensed in 2021. My professional experience includes work in private practice and clinical settings, supporting individuals with trauma histories, anxiety, depression, stress-related concerns, and life transitions. I prioritize ethical practice, continued education, and thoughtful, client-centered care. I’m additionally a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, Certified Narcissistic Abuse Specialist and Brainspotting Practitioner (Phase 4). I’m also Internal Family Systems informed. One very important detail to know about me is that I was in a near fatal car wreck that left me paralyzed from the waist down. I was seconds away from a blood clot shutting down my heart. So I do know what it’s like to survive a life I didn’t know what it would be. But now over 25 years later, I wouldn’t trade it for anything. I care deeply that my clients feel seen and heard. I identify as queer and am metaphysical, as well. I’m also known to watch documentaries on serial killers and neuroscience. I enjoy spending time with friends and my sweet kitty, PJ. All animals are welcome to virtual sessions! I get invested on how they’re doing too!

I’m Ashley Marie, founder of Attuned Hearts Counseling, and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist for the state of Texas. I consider it a sacred privilege to walk with couples and individuals as they find healing and learn to connect deeply with themselves and others. Outside of the therapy space, I’m a wife, a mom to both human kids & fur-kids (dogs), an ADHDer, and a yoga instructor. One of my favorite things is continuing education. I am obsessive about trainings and keeping up on the latest research. In addition to being slightly obsessed with becoming the very best therapist possible for my clients, I enjoy time with my family, the ocean, running, yoga, and all things theatre arts.

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.

Elizabeth has over 14 years of experience working with children, teens, and adults in health care and mental health settings.

Hi, I’m Kelly—a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with a passion for helping women overcome anxiety, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and the weight of trying to do it all. My clients often come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stretched too thin, and unsure how to prioritize themselves without guilt. If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to keep navigating it on your own. I specialize in supporting women across the lifespan who are tired of running on empty, questioning their worth, or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve them.

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!
