Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in social anxiety, my approach to treatment is grounded in empathy, understanding, and evidence-based interventions. Through therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure therapy, and social skills training, I work collaboratively with individuals to address underlying fears and negative thought patterns related to social situations. By gradually exposing clients to feared social scenarios in a supportive environment, we work together to challenge avoidance behaviors and develop effective coping strategies. Additionally, I emphasize the importance of self-compassion, assertiveness training, and relaxation techniques to manage anxiety symptoms. My goal is to empower individuals to overcome social anxiety, build confidence in social interactions, and cultivate meaningful connections with others.

Mike Jeffcoat
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I can help the client by exporing the deeper thoughts and somatic responses that are occuring and the why in social contexts that bring about anxiety. With that work, transformation can take place so that the client can begin to have more meaningful, healthy, and positive social experiences. To that purpose, I use positive psychology, integrative holistic theories and practices, meditation, and breathwork so that my clients can experience a fulfilling life and become the authentic person they've wanted to be.

McKinney is one of the fastest-growing cities in the United States, a rapidly expanding Dallas-area suburb in Collin County whose population has surged with families and professionals drawn by strong schools, lower housing costs than central Dallas, and a robust job market. The pace of growth itself creates mental health demand—new residents navigating relocation stress, parents managing the pressures of achievement-oriented suburban culture, and young professionals balancing demanding careers with family life are among the most common therapy clientele. Medical City McKinney and a growing network of private practices serve the community, and the proximity to Dallas's much larger therapy market gives residents additional options via telehealth or a short commute. Common therapy concerns include anxiety, life transitions, relationship and parenting stress, and the particular strains of raising a family in one of America's most rapidly transforming suburban landscapes.
