Therapists in Richardson, TX
With all the stress of the modern world, and life’s challenges and transitions, many of us can benefit from mental health support at one time or another. When it comes to finding a therapist, Richardson, TX can offer a wider range of choice than surrounding rural and suburban areas. However, it isn’t always easy to find mental health care, even in more populated areas.
One of the reasons is that there are a number of evidence-based therapeutic approaches in the field of psychology, and they are all more or less effective depending on what mental health challenge is being addressed. College students from nearby Southern Methodist University dealing with stress can have very different needs than a middle-aged parent dealing with long-term effects of childhood trauma. There are so many specializations that what you need may not be available nearby.
That’s where online therapy can help. With online therapy through a platform like BetterHelp, you get access to over 30,000 mental health professionals that have expertise in a number of therapeutic approaches, and experience working with diverse populations and life stages. From psychologists to social workers, to licensed professional counselors (LPCs), these practitioners support clients through family conflict, traumatic events, eating disorders, and more. Simply fill out an online questionnaire and BetterHelp will match you with a therapist that meets your personal needs.
BetterHelp can also be a solution for people that are looking for a more supportive space to talk to their therapist. Not everyone feels comfortable in a clinical environment, and with video chat, phone, and text messaging options, you can meet with your therapist from the comfort of your own home.
If you live in the Richardson area and have been thinking about therapy, whether in the form of therapeutic yoga, solution-based therapy for goal setting, or CBT to treat mood disorders, there is no better time to begin. Reach out to BetterHelp to get started on your journey to wellness and self-discovery.

Hello! Welcome to the BetterHelp community! My name is Dorian Turner and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Chicago, IL. I have been providing psychotherapy for a wide variety of issues and populations for 5 + years. I graduated from Chicago State University with a Master in Social Work. I have spent most of my career working with youth in the school setting, seniors and the disabled in the community mental health setting as well as in the hospital setting. I would describe my approach as goal oriented, and client centered. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). Both modalities are hands-on, practical approaches to problem-solving. CBT treatment usually involves efforts to change thinking patterns and or behaviors. The goals are to change patterns of thinking or behavior that are behind difficult situations, and so change the way they feel. This helps people identify faulty or unhelpful ways of thinking and learn better ways of coping with life's full variety of stressors.
