All teens have their moody days, and some can be downright unpleasant sometimes. However, if your teenager is acting more sullen than usual, sleeping all the time, and not wanting to hang out with their friends, they may have depression. There are plenty of mental health experts in Prosper who are trained to diagnose and treat depression and other mental conditions. 

Once you get your teen back to normal, you can both enjoy some of the attractions of Prosper like the Town Lake Park, Whispering Farms, Fire Station Park, Frontier Park, and Boyer Park. Spending the day out at one of the parks or the lake can be good for you both, physically and mentally.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with extensive experience working with clients across the lifespan, from ages 3 to 75, and with diverse backgrounds and various challenges. I used to provide couples and marital counseling, as well as family and group counseling, where I served as both a facilitator and co-facilitator in various therapeutic settings. However, I currently only focus on individual counseling, which I have the most experience in. Throughout my career, I have supported clients facing a wide range of challenges, including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, low self-esteem, self-harm, trauma, grief, career struggles, codependency, narcissism, and ADHD. I also work with individuals navigating autism, addiction, substance use, gender identity, eating disorders, social anxiety, sexuality, neurodivergence, CPTSD, and various types/forms of abuse. My therapeutic style is warm and person-centered, emphasizing a nonjudgmental and interactive space where clients can take the lead. I believe clients are the true experts in their lives, so my role is to walk alongside them as a supportive guide, offering unconditional positive regard and encouragement in their journey of self-discovery. Understanding that each client’s path is unique, I tailor my approach to honor their individual experiences and needs. Rather than adopting a “one size fits all” approach, I draw from a blend of therapeutic modalities, including cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, narrative, dialectical behavioral, exposure, humanistic, psychodynamic, interpersonal, art, emotionally focused, and rational-emotive therapies. Together, we’ll shape our dialogue and develop a treatment plan that best aligns with your unique needs, honoring your goals and helping you overcome any obstacles in your way.

Some other commonly asked questions on therapy with a licensed counselor and BetterHelp serving the Prosper area can be found below:

How does the cost of an in-person therapist compare to BetterHelp?

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in Prosper due to a higher cost of living, and a limited number of therapists taking new clients. The price also depends on the type of provider you are looking for. See the following average prices for various mental health providers without insurance:

  • With a psychiatrist: $150-$500
  • With therapists: $100-300
  • With a clinician: $100

While many psychologists in Prosper may not take health insurance, some in the state of Texas may work on a sliding scale, meaning they'll factor in your income and charge what you can afford per session. With a BetterHelp therapist throughout the state of Texas you can expect significantly more affordable options, with sessions ranging from $65 to $100 per week (billed every four weeks).
