I believe that online therapy is a vital tool to make counseling accessible to more people. I have been certified in the use and ethics of online therapy and have extensive experience in using this tool effectively. When in-person therapy presents a barrier, online therapy may present a solution.

Christina Walthers
Counselor/Therapist, MS, APC
This is a space where you can exhale - where you don’t have to hold it all together. You’re welcome here as you are: messy, uncertain, grieving, hopeful, stuck, hurt, or in the middle of change. I often work with folks who feel disconnected from themselves or others as well as their own desires and needs. Together, we slow things down and listen for what’s happening beneath the surface (emotionally, relationally, and in the body).
My approach is somatic, relational, and psychodynamic, grounded in compassion, curiosity, and collaboration. I’ll meet you with steadiness and care, while also challenging the patterns that keep you feeling stuck. Our work is about deepening your relationship with yourself and others, and moving toward a life that feels more connected and intentional. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, grief, life transitions, or a general sense of disconnection, we’ll work together to understand what’s underneath and shift what no longer serves you. If this resonates, please reach out. Let's chat about how I can support you.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
I know choosing a therapist can be difficult. I like to provide an atmosphere that is collaborative, nurturing, and focused on helping you achieve your goals. I do this using therapeutic techniques that are evidenced-based which means these methods have consistently been shown effective through research. I make every effort to balance kindness with a focus on getting you to where you want to be. This balance results in people feeling understood while creating meaningful change.

Dina Hijazi
Psychologist, PhD, CSAT
Hi all,
I’m Dr. Dina Hijazi, PhD, CSAT. My clinical work focuses on the holistic treatment of relationships—with both self and others. This includes supporting individuals, couples, and families navigating anxiety, depression, intimacy disorders, trauma, and addiction, always with a focus on emotional, psychological, and social well-being. With over 35 years of experience I'm sure I can help you.
My educational journey includes a Bachelor’s degree in psychology from Purdue University, a Master’s from Notre Dame University, and a Ph.D. from the University of Texas at Austin. Postdoctoral training in family systems therapy and trauma/addiction work was completed under the mentorship of Pia Mellody and Patrick Carnes. I also hold national certifications in Sex Addiction Therapy (CSAT), Multiple Addiction Therapy (CMAT), and training in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing).
Sharing this work with broader audiences has been deeply fulfilling—whether through The Meadows Lecture Series, The Dallas Free Lecture Series, or speaking engagements at universities, conferences, and schools.
I look forward to connecting with you.

Tiyahna M
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC,LPCMH,NCC,C-DBT
In a world that moves quickly and often demands more than we feel we can give, mental health is not a luxury—it's a necessity. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, or simply feeling stuck, therapy can offer a path forward. I’m glad you’re here.
As a licensed mental health therapist, my goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Everyone’s journey is unique, and so is the way we approach healing. Here’s what I offer in my practice:
1. Individual Therapy
I work one-on-one with adults and adolescents who are looking for support with:
Anxiety and stress management
Depression and mood disorders
Trauma and PTSD
Life transitions and identity issues
Self-esteem and personal growth
Our sessions are client-centered and collaborative. I draw from evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Solution-Focused Therapy, and trauma-informed care, tailoring my approach to what works best for you.
2. Couples & Relationship Counseling
Relationships can be both fulfilling and challenging. I offer therapy for couples seeking to:
Improve communication
Rebuild trust
Navigate conflict
Strengthen emotional connection
Whether you're in a long-term relationship, navigating new dynamics, or working through a separation, I help partners develop healthier patterns and a deeper understanding of each other.
Culturally Sensitive, Inclusive Care
I honor the diversity of every client I work with. My practice is inclusive and affirming of all identities—cultural, racial, sexual, and gender. I strive to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and respected.
Teletherapy Options
I offer secure virtual sessions for clients who prefer or require remote access. Teletherapy is a flexible, convenient option for those with busy schedules, mobility challenges, or who live outside the area.
Why Therapy? Why Now?
You don’t need to be in crisis to start therapy. Sometimes, just having a space to talk, reflect, and grow can make all the difference. Healing isn’t about “fixing” yourself—it’s about understanding yourself better and learning to live more fully and authentically.

Karen Bisignano
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
After trauma, healing begins with understanding your experience. Trauma isn't just the event; it's the inability to make sense of what happened, often leaving you stuck in repetitive, unhealthy relationships. Whether or not you recognize childhood abuse or neglect, its effects show up subtly. You found a way to survive an absent, rigid, or abusive dynamic, but everyday life can still trigger those old wounds. You might feel a loss of control, carry deep self-doubt, or constantly put others first to your own detriment. If you are wondering how to help yourself and take the next step, you do not have to navigate this alone.
It takes immense courage to seek therapy when carrying trauma or pain. You do not have to carry it alone anymore. In our sessions—using EMDR with other modalities, we will work as a collaborative team at a pace that feels entirely safe for you. You are always the driver here. Together, we will build the lasting tools you need to reclaim your life.
I know how scary reaching out is—I've been in your shoes. Years ago, navigating trauma, divorce, and family hardships, I resisted restarting therapy. But taking that leap helped me rebuild an empowered version of myself. You deserve to feel lighter and in control again, too. Contact me today and lets see if we're a good fit.

Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
Like many of you, the pandemic profoundly impacted the way I live and work. I moved my practice completely online in the face of COVID restrictions and have not returned to in person work. I was impressed with the way that online therapy offered clients many more options for their work with me and I found clients able to keep up with their sessions consistently and reliably with more connection options open to them. Via safe and secure telehealth sessions, I offer parent consultation for kiddos under 10, online therapy with older kids, teens and families and individual therapy for adults, specializing in trauma and trauma focused therapies.

Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
You’re busy. You’re thoughtful. You’re holding it together—but inside, you might feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or just tired of managing so much on your own. Whether you’re working from home, on the go, or simply craving support that fits into your life, online therapy can help you reconnect—with yourself, your goals, and your sense of ease.
I’m Dr. Megan Marks, a licensed psychologist and owner of The Momentum Practice. I specialize in working with high-achieving adults, neurodivergent folks (especially those with ADHD), and anyone navigating stress, life transitions, or relationship challenges. In our virtual sessions, you’ll find a space that’s affirming, practical, and tailored to you—not just your problems.
Therapy with me is collaborative and grounded in real-world tools, cultural responsiveness, and a good dose of insight (and yes, sometimes humor). Whether you're unpacking old patterns, building new habits, or learning how to rest without guilt, you don’t have to do it alone.
Virtual therapy at The Momentum Practice is just as affirming, collaborative, and effective as in-person work. Whether you're navigating anxiety, burnout, relationship stress, ADHD, or major life transitions, online therapy offers the flexibility to get support without sacrificing connection or privacy.
You deserve a space that helps you feel more like yourself—not just functioning, but fulfilled. Let’s build some momentum. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation!

Molly Halbrooks
Counselor/Therapist, LMFT
Good therapy is a partnership between you and your therapist. If you're ready to finally figure out why you've been struggling and do something about it, then you bring the expertise on your own life, experiences, and needs, and I'll bring evidence-based training, clinical experience, and a safe space to hold your hardest moments. I have deep respect for the individuals I work with, and am consistently amazed by the level of vulnerability, insight, and growth they are able to achieve when we work together in this way. You are a unique individual with unique life experiences and I meet you right where you are and work with you to determine how to move forward as your healthiest, most fulfilled self.
Most clients find virtual therapy to be the same or better than in person therapy. Virtual sessions allow you to easily work around your job commitments or childcare, and by eliminating the commute it is easier to find the time to have sessions. You have the convenience of working with a fully licensed, highly trained therapist in your home or office, and by using secure video chatting you are still able to maintain confidentiality and the visual experience of being in person.
After the initial assessment, if virtual therapy is not the right fit for you, we will help you find an in-person option.
