Best Fort Worth therapists near me

Hi, I'm a licensed therapist dedicated to helping young adults and adults navigate life’s challenges with clarity, resilience, and self-compassion. I work with individuals from diverse backgrounds, including both South Asian and non-South Asian clients, providing culturally sensitive and inclusive care. My experience includes supporting clients through anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, trauma, and self-esteem concerns. My approach blends empathy, collaboration, and evidence-based practices, creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and supported. I believe therapy is a partnership, together, we identify goals, explore new perspectives, and develop practical strategies for meaningful change. My aim is to empower each client to strengthen their sense of self, improve emotional well-being, and build tools to move forward with confidence.

Hello, and thank you for visiting my profile. My name is Celina Piernik and I am a retired school counselor, dedicating 28 years to helping children and their families. As a licensed professional counselor, I continue to help children, adolescents and adults navigate life, heal and grow. I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness-based Approaches, and Trauma-focused CBT to help clients achieve their goals. My former students and clients describe me as warm and compassionate. Sessions with me are tailored to meet your unique needs and are solution-focused. I’d be honored to help you and/or your children get closer to the life you want.

Hi there! I’m Corey, a Licensed Professional Counselor. My goal is to create a space where you can just be you—no masks, no filters, and definitely no pressure to have it all figured out. Life is messy, identity is complicated, and sometimes we all just need a place to untangle it all with someone who gets it. I love working with teenagers and young adults and anyone exploring who they are, especially around identity, self-worth, and cultural or generational experiences. If you’ve ever felt like you don’t quite fit in a box (or like you were handed a bunch of boxes and none of them felt right), you're in the right place. As a mixed-race individual, I understand what it’s like to feel caught between worlds—and how empowering it can be to reclaim your story. My approach is warm, collaborative, and a little eclectic—because let’s be real, healing isn’t one-size-fits-all. I use a mix of somatic work, inner child healing, mindfulness, cognitive behavior therapy, and humor (yes, therapy can include laughing!). I believe in the power of showing up as your full self and learning to be kind to that self, even on the hard days. Together, we’ll explore what healing looks like for you—whether that’s working through anxiety, depression, navigating life transitions, or learning how to take up space unapologetically. Therapy doesn’t have to be stiff or scary; it can be real, supportive, and sometimes even a little fun.

I believe in creating a safe, nonjudgmental environment where individuals can explore their emotions, develop coping strategies, and build a stronger sense of self-worth. My goal is to help clients uncover their strengths, gain clarity, and create a path toward personal growth and resilience.

Dianne Dabney, NCC, M.A., Th.D., LPC I am passionate about helping people become the best version of themselves. With a strong foundation in practical therapeutic approaches and a deep commitment to compassionate care, I bring experience and insight to every session. I specialize in working with children, young adults, older adults, and couples navigating relationship challenges. My background includes a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health, National Certified Counselor (NCC) certification, and a Doctorate in Theology. My approach to therapy is rooted in creating a safe, calming environment where clients feel comfortable sharing their story. I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to provide effective tools that empower individuals to manage life’s challenges. Clients can expect to feel heard, supported, and equipped with actionable insights. My goal is for every person I work with to leave feeling hopeful, encouraged, and confident in their journey toward a healthier, more fulfilling life.

If you or your teen is feeling overwhelmed, stuck in patterns of distraction, stress, or constant conflict. This might be a good place to start. I specialize in working with teens, young adults, and parents. My therapy services start with the individual who’s struggling most (often with ADHD, anxiety, or burnout) and then bring in the family to strengthen communication and support. My clients often tell me that within just a few sessions, things start to feel lighter, the pressure eases, and communication improves. Before becoming a therapist, I spent over a decade in schools as a teacher and counselor, so I’ve seen firsthand how ADHD and big emotions can impact learning, confidence, and family life. That background shapes how I work. I get the full picture, not just the symptoms in a session. I know how overwhelming life can feel when everything seems like too much and you’re trying to keep it all together. My therapy style is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to your needs. I offer a space that’s warm, real, and encouraging.
