Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP BAAT
I work as an integrative art psychotherapist and IFS practitioner, offering a thoughtful and collaborative way of working. Therapy with me doesn’t need to involve art unless it feels useful; some sessions focus on conversation, while others may use images, objects, or simple creative materials to explore experiences that are difficult to put into words.
Before training as a psychotherapist, I spent many years working in design and technology. That background continues to shape how I work – I’m interested in patterns, systems, and how different parts interact, both internally and in our wider lives. My decision to retrain grew out of lived experience as well as professional curiosity, and I bring both into the therapy room.
I work in an engaged, grounded way, staying close to what matters and adjusting pace as needed. Clients often come to me when they want to understand themselves more clearly, work with complexity rather than bypass it, and make changes that feel considered and sustainable.

Dr. Brittany Jacobson
Psychologist, PhD, CST
Maybe you're exhausted from carrying everything on your own. You want someone to lean on, but trusting people has never felt safe. You tell yourself you should be over what happened by now, but you still feel the impact of the past. You are really hard on yourself, struggle to get close to people, feel on edge even when nothing is wrong, or wonder why the same relationship patterns keep showing up. On the outside, you might look like you're keeping it together, but internally you feel exhausted and alone.
One of the things I love most about being a therapist is helping people finally make sense of and find closure from experiences that have never truly been processed. And to provide the support you’ve always needed but have never truly received. Healing is about helping both your mind and body learn that you don't have to stay in survival mode. My approach is trauma-informed, relational, and holistic, blending evidence-based therapy with mindfulness and mind-body techniques to create meaningful, lasting change.
I know you may feel like you can't really rely on anyone and have had to handle everything on your own. Working with me as your therapist, you'll finally have someone in your corner who has your back and will be your biggest advocate. My clients have described me as someone patient and compassionate who will also give direct, helpful feedback that supports their goals; and someone who isn't afraid to bring some well-timed humor into sessions, because healing involves connecting with joy too.
Our work together will be intentional. I come with a personalized plan for each session so you get the most out of your therapy. Everything will be tailored to your unique story, goals, and nervous system. We'll move at your pace while addressing the deeper roots of what's keeping you stuck, so you can build self-trust, healthier relationships, and a greater sense of peace in your daily life. If you're wondering whether we'd be a good fit, I'd love to meet you during a free 15-minute consultation! To schedule a consultation, you can contact me to coordinate a time or book directly on my website if that's easier.

Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Something in you knows that what you're carrying runs deeper than the presenting problem.
Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable, and outwardly composed-yet internally they live with anxiety, depression, chronic tension or pain, relentless self-criticism, or a sense that something essential is blocked, muted, or just out of reach. These struggles may surface in mood, in the body, in behavior, or in relationships-including sexuality and intimacy-but they are rarely contained to any one area. They tend to reflect deeper emotional and relational patterns formed early in life, often before language, that continue to shape how a person approaches closeness, vulnerability, agency, pleasure, and self-expression.
My work centers on how early experience shapes the capacity for self-regulation, desire, connection, and meaning throughout life-and particularly on how people come to know what they need and want, how they learn to express or inhibit those impulses, and what happens when these capacities become conflicted, constricted, or difficult to sustain.
I integrate psychoanalytic hypnotherapy, somatic awareness, and clinical sexology within a reflective, depth-oriented process. Hypnosis functions as a central clinical tool-creating conditions for deeper internal contact with emotional, bodily, and unconscious experience that can be difficult to reach through conversation alone. The aim is not only relief from symptoms, but the development of a more coherent and compassionate relationship with one's inner life: sensations, emotions, impulses, and desires.
This work is oriented toward lasting psychological change-and toward greater freedom in how one relates to oneself, one's body, and one's capacity for connection, authenticity, and vitality. It is best suited to those ready to move beyond symptom management toward something more fundamental.

Dr. Dawnn R. Meiers
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Currently accepting clients! My approach is grounded in 20+yrs of clinical experience as a psychotherapist and 50+ years lived experience with an intersectional identity as a first-generation college student and adoptive parent in a multi-ethnic family. I help adult clients get out of their heads & skillfully back into their lives, with interventions drawn from the research-supported "third wave" of cognitive-behavioral therapy, which includes mindfulness and acceptance approaches, in addition to existential therapy, positive psychology, and nature prescriptions. Expect invitations for behavioral "experiments," culturally-relevant self-help resources, and client-centered compassionate care. Schedule a free 15 minute consultation to discuss your needs today.

Jay Shaw
Hypnotherapist, CHt (Certified Hypnotherapist)
Most high performers don't have a strategy problem. They have an identity problem. The beliefs, triggers, and automatic responses running in the background are the real ceiling and talking about them only gets you so far. I'm Jay Shaw, a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist and creator of Identity 2.0 Neural Reprogramming, based in Richardson, TX and serving the greater Dallas area and clients nationwide. My work targets the subconscious architecture driving your patterns and replaces it at the root. A systematic rebuild across 12 dimensions of identity tailored specifically to you. In-person and virtual options available. If you're done managing what you want eliminated, book a strategy call at hypnosisdallastx.com.
