Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in stress management, my approach to treatment is focused on empowering individuals to build resilience and develop effective coping strategies. Through evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), and relaxation techniques, I help clients identify sources of stress, challenge negative thought patterns, and learn to respond to stressors in healthier ways. By cultivating self-awareness and teaching skills such as time management, problem-solving, and assertive communication, I support individuals in managing their stressors proactively. Additionally, I emphasize the importance of self-care practices, such as regular exercise, adequate sleep, and engaging in activities that bring joy and fulfillment. My goal is to equip individuals with the tools they need to navigate life's challenges with greater ease, resilience, and overall well-being.

Rebecca Phillips, MS, LPC, CCTP, EMDR Therapist in Frisco Texas
Licensed Professional Counselor, Master of Science, LPC, EMDR Therapist, CCTP: Complex Trauma
Stress can feel like an ever-present weight, pulling you down even as you try to keep moving forward. You might feel like you’re always running on empty, trying to balance work, family, and personal responsibilities with no time left for yourself. Maybe you lie awake at night, your mind racing with worries about the future or replaying moments from the day. Or perhaps the pressure has started to show up in your body—headaches, tension, or a constant sense of restlessness or exhaustion.
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Stress affects more than just your mood—it can impact your relationships, your ability to focus, and your overall sense of well-being. When stress builds up, it’s easy to feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to break free from the cycle. But you don’t have to face it alone.
In therapy, we can work together to uncover what’s fueling your stress and develop strategies to help you feel more in control. Whether it’s learning how to set boundaries, managing perfectionism, or finding ways to quiet your inner critic, we’ll explore tools that align with your unique needs. We can also work on helping you reconnect with what brings you peace and joy, so you can start to feel like yourself again.
I provide therapy for stress management in Frisco, Dallas, and virtually across Texas, Colorado, and Florida. If you’re ready to take a step toward clarity, calm, and a life that feels more balanced, I’d love to help. You don’t have to carry the weight alone—let’s work together to lighten the load.

I would like to help guide you in managing your stress level more effectively, by building your coping skills and healthy thought process. As for the stress in life that cannot be changed, I would like to help you gain acceptance and peace.

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.
