Kirk Shelton
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
I approach therapy as a practical and relational process rather than a set of techniques. People usually come in when long-standing ways of coping no longer fit their current life, even if those strategies once made sense. My work focuses on understanding how those patterns developed, how they continue to function, and how they can be reorganized in ways that support greater flexibility and self-direction. Change matters to me as it shows up in how a person lives, relates, and responds outside the therapy space.

Devon Davasher
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CCM, CFSW, Master ART Practitioner
I became a therapist because I needed one. I lost my mom when I was 18, and in the years that followed I struggled with anxiety and depression and reached for whatever would take the edge off. When I finally sat down with a therapist, it changed my life. Not because it fixed everything right away, but because for the first time I had a space to say the things I had never said out loud. As a gay man, I know what it is like to carry parts of yourself quietly for longer than you should have had to. That lived experience shapes how I show up in the room. Affirming care is not something I do. It is something I live.

Amanda Etienne
Psychologist, Psy.D
If you're a woman who's spent years doing everything "right," (achieving, handling, holding it together...) you may have noticed that success didn't fill the gap you thought it would. I work with capable, high-achieving women who are realizing they want more than functioning: they want to actually know themselves, and to let the people in their life know them too.
Many of my clients grew up being told they were "too sensitive" or "too much." I believe sensitivity isn't the problem to manage away - it's a strength that got mislabeled, and often the very thing that makes deep connection possible. Together, we slow down enough to build a real relationship with yourself, not just a polished explanation of yourself.
I offer virtual therapy across Colorado, Washington, and all PSYPACT states, specializing in anxiety, perfectionism, and relational and sexual trauma. If you're ready to stop managing your sensitivity and start using it, I'd love to talk.

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.
