Sauna Therapy | A Boutique Mental Health Studio | Paige Swanson
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LPC
What the Caterpillar Calls the End of Life, the Master Calls the Butterfly. – Richard Bach This was the first sentence of my personal statement which got me into Northwestern University where I got my graduate degree. Psychotherapy changes hearts and ignites transformation in an individual; the same way that the caterpillar transforms into a butterfly. In therapy, I get to watch people grow into magical, beautiful, bright-winged butterflies. I hope that Sauna can be a place for us to be human together. To self-inquire and get curious about ourselves. To know that even in the darkness – you’re not alone.

Jamie Heavey
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, ATR
As an exclusive licensed professional counselor and registered art therapist, I provide a unique and personalized approach to mental health that combines the power of talk therapy with the restorative benefits of nature walks. Welcome to my counseling and art therapy practice, where emotional healing meets the great outdoors.
My passion for helping individuals overcome emotional challenges comes from my own personal experiences. Through my own journey of healing and self-discovery, I discovered the transformative power of nature and its ability to promote relaxation and healing. This inspired me to integrate nature walks into my counseling and art therapy practice.
At my practice, I work with individuals who are experiencing a wide range of emotional challenges, from anxiety and depression to relationship issues and trauma. By combining traditional talk therapy with the restorative power of nature walks, I help clients to reduce stress, gain self-awareness, and develop new coping skills.
As an LPC and art therapist, I provide a supportive and confidential space for clients to express their thoughts and emotions. Through the use of various art materials and techniques, clients can explore and express themselves in a creative and non-verbal way. Nature walks are also incorporated into therapy sessions, allowing clients to connect with nature and experience its restorative benefits.
I offer individual and group sessions, tailored to each client's unique needs and goals. Whether you're new to therapy or have prior experience, I provide a welcoming and non-judgmental space for everyone. Together, we can embark on a journey of self-discovery and emotional healing, while surrounded by the beauty and healing power of nature.
If you're ready to take the first step towards a brighter future, I invite you to contact me today to schedule a consultation. Let's work together to help you achieve emotional healing and personal growth, while experiencing the restorative power of nature.

Elizabeth Starnes
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, ATR-BC®, REAT
Reaching out for support often means something in your life feels too heavy to carry alone. You don’t have to navigate it by yourself. I offer a space that moves at your pace—without pressure or expectations—where you can begin to make sense of what you’re carrying.
I work with individuals navigating trauma and PTSD, anxiety, grief, and life transitions. Together, we gently explore patterns shaped by past experiences and how they continue to show up in your thoughts, relationships, and sense of self. This work isn’t about forcing change—it’s about creating space for clarity, self-understanding, and a deeper sense of trust in yourself.
My approach integrates talk therapy with expressive arts therapy, grounded in specialized training in art therapy and intermodal expressive work. This means we actively use modalities such as visual journaling, storytelling, movement, and other forms of creative expression as part of the therapeutic process—not just talking about your experiences, but engaging with them in ways that support deeper understanding and change.
Clients often describe me as steady, down-to-earth, and genuine. I value creating a space where you feel safe, seen, and able to show up as you are.

Shawna Damiani
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Hi, I'm Shawna. I'm really glad you're here — and I know that finding the right therapist can feel like a lot. My hope is that by the time you finish reading this, you'll have a sense of who I am and whether we might be a good fit.
I work with adults who are carrying things that feel heavy — whether that's the weight of past trauma, the complexity of relationships that keep hitting the same walls, or the experience of moving through a world that wasn't quite designed for the way your brain works. I specialize in trauma and PTSD, relationship challenges, and supporting adults with ADHD and autism who are often figuring out a lot about themselves for the first time.
A lot of my clients come to me feeling like something is wrong with them. My job — and honestly, my passion — is helping people see that they've been responding to hard things in the most human ways possible. Healing isn't about fixing yourself. It's about understanding yourself.
My approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. I'm not going to sit silently and nod — I show up as a real person in the room with you. Therapy with me tends to feel like an honest, sometimes even humorous conversation, grounded in real tools and genuine care.
If any of this resonates, I'd love to hear from you. Reaching out is the hardest part — and you've already started.

Zach Ramsey
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC-S, CSAT
You may feel like your life has been turned upside down by addiction, broken trust, sexual behavior, or painful relationship experiences, and many people carry trauma connected to betrayal, emotional wounds, or sexual experiences that continue to shape how they feel and relate to others. You might be living with shame, fear of losing what matters most, unstable relationships, or the constant pressure of trying to hold everything together. Therapy can be a place to slow down, understand what is beneath these struggles, and begin healing not only behaviors, but the trauma and patterns driving them. Recovery and healing are about rebuilding safety, self respect, and connection with yourself and the people you care about. I also provide affirming care for gay and lesbian clients and offer a space where you do not have to hide or explain who you are. If you are ready to begin addressing what has been weighing on you and start creating lasting change in your life and relationships, I invite you to reach out today to schedule a consultation.

I understand that the first step is often the most difficult. Whether you are dealing with feelings of hopelessness, depression, anxiety, a past tragedy, or abuse, know that hope and healing are within reach. You don't have to walk this journey alone. I counsel adults and adolescents who are experiencing depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, life transitions, grief, and loss. Counseling is a safe place where you can learn, grow, and develop the skills needed to navigate the challenges of life.

Melissa Gaa
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC-Supervisor
Making the decision to attend counseling can be a difficult one. Many times emotions are hard to control or even understand, while others in your life may not comprehend what you are struggling with. I understand the difficulties of expectations placed upon each of us to hide or suppress emotions. Together, we will work towards growth and positive changes in your life. Whether you are experiencing a temporary setback, or an ongoing problem, I can assist you. My goal is to help you through your challenges that may be creating barriers for you to move forward.

Ashley Ray
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-S, CCTP, TIYT
Stressed? Irritable? anxious? overwhelmed? angry? I get it. Whether its quarantine, traumatic experiences, or just LIFE that's left you feeling like you are unraveling, I got you.
Achieving inner peace and freedom from the pain and discomfort that you feel is possible. I offer you evidence-based holistic psychotherapy techniques that help you heal, restore and renew. My office is a safe place for you to tell your story and receive heartfelt listening, acceptance and compassion? However, it is also a place where I can teach you techniques to re-balance when you feel emotionally flooded and disconnected. Healing doesn't even have to begin with tirelessly and painfully pouring over the past if that's not what you want. My guess is that you have already been doing that with limited results. Healing can begin with learning how to rewire your automated stress response so that you can start feeling better and more at ease right away!
It is my passion and purpose to help you to discover the parts of yourself that you really love and transform the parts that keep you stuck. I believe in your inherent ability to heal and am dedicated to supporting your in connection more deeply with that ability. Some of the methods I integrate into sessions are Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Integral Psychotherapy, yoga, dance and other somatic processing techniques, mindfulness training, meditation, visualization, breath work, shamanic practices, Energy Medicine, Exposure Therapy, gestalt methods, Narrative Therapy, and EFT.
I can help you heal from traumas and anxiety through a holistic somatic therapy approach that returns you to inner peace and confidence.

Grand Prairie sits squarely between Dallas and Fort Worth, a diverse working- and middle-class city with strong Latino and Black communities, aerospace and manufacturing employers, and a long entertainment strip of racing, ballparks, and theme attractions. Its mental health needs mirror the DFW mid-cities generally — family and economic stress, demand for Spanish-language care, and reliance on the metroplex's larger therapy markets on either side. Local community providers and telehealth bridge the access gap.
