How we can help

Families across McKinney often find their way to us when general counseling just hasn't been enough. There are plenty of therapists closer to home, of course, but when what you're facing is OCD, a shrinking food list that looks like ARFID, or a child whose anxiety has taken over the whole household, gentle supportive talk therapy often isn't the thing that finally moves the needle. Challenges like these tend to respond to specific, structured approaches, things like ERP, I-CBT, and exposure-based ARFID work, delivered by clinicians who use them day in and day out. That focus is all we do, and we do it wholeheartedly. Our team supports OCD, anxiety disorders, ADHD, autism, ARFID, and trauma in children, teens, and adults, and nothing else. Many McKinney parents reach out to us partway through the school year, when the morning battles, homework shutdowns, or lunchroom struggles make it clear something more targeted is needed. We stay in close touch with parents throughout treatment, and for anxious kids who can't quite face therapy themselves, our parent-based SPACE program creates real change without your child ever having to attend a session.

We specialize in OCD (including ERP and I-CBT), anxiety disorders, ADHD, autism, ARFID, eating disorders, and trauma — for children as young as 3, teens, and adults.

Getting here

From most of McKinney, our Plano office at 8105 Rasor Blvd., Suite 206 is about a 25-minute drive down the Sam Rayburn Tollway (SH 121) or US-75. That's far enough that we like to be upfront with families about the logistics. Many of our McKinney clients do a hybrid: coming in person when the work really benefits from it, like early ERP sessions or family sessions, and meeting by secure video in between. Others work with us fully online, and that's wonderful too. Every service we offer is available virtually anywhere in Texas, with the very same clinicians and the very same treatment plans.

If weekly drives from McKinney feel like a lot to keep up, you're not alone. Many of our McKinney clients alternate in-person sessions with secure video, or simply meet with us fully online. Whatever works for your life, every service we offer is available virtually anywhere in Texas.

Common questions

Is the drive from McKinney worth it for specialized therapy?

For OCD, ARFID, and anxiety disorders, working with a clinician trained in the right approach really does matter more than how close they are, because these challenges respond to specific methods like ERP rather than general counseling. That said, if the drive feels like a barrier, telehealth brings those same specialists right to you.

Do you offer telehealth for McKinney residents?

Yes. We provide secure video sessions to clients anywhere in Texas, including McKinney — same clinicians, same evidence-based care. Many families alternate in-person and virtual sessions.

Do you take insurance?

We're a private-pay practice, and we're happy to provide superbills you can submit for out-of-network reimbursement. We also offer two pricing tiers, our experienced specialists and lower-cost supervised clinicians, plus sliding-scale options, so that specialized care stays within reach for more families.

Do you work with children and teens from McKinney?

Yes, we work with children, teens, and adults. Parents are actively involved throughout, and our SPACE program is there to support parents of anxious kids who aren't quite ready to attend therapy themselves.

How do I get started from McKinney?

The easiest way to begin is a free 15-minute video consultation with the clinician you'd be working with. From there, you can choose in-person sessions in Plano, video, or a mix of both, whatever feels right for you.

What's the best way to begin therapy from McKinney?

The simplest first step is a free 15-minute consultation. You can book it online or give us a call, and we'll use that time to really understand your goals and answer any questions on your mind.
