Lifeologie Institute

Kelly Reese

No one told you life was gonna be this way? You’re wearing a mask trying to balance working and navigating your career, relationships, parenting, hobbies, paying bills, maintaining your home and everything else that is required of you. Underneath that mask, you are struggling and feel overwhelmed with the challenge of trying to be everywhere and everything for everyone. You feel lost in the shuffle, broken, defeated, anxious, and shattered. You question yourself, your value.

Federico Mendez

Do you encounter anxiety, depression, marital frustrations, communication problems, intimacy concerns, or suffer from PTSD? Let's work together to find resiliency within yourself and with those that matter to you to make lasting relationships become meaningful and prosperous. My holistic approach can help you find the root to many of these experiences.

Peace Lane Therapy provides an affirmative environment for all types of clients in-home, bedside, or telehealth. I have extensive training in affirmative-based care to ensure that my clients are receiving the most effective treatment that they need.

My specialties include chronic illness/pain, grief/loss, palliative, hospice, end-of-life, and caregiver support.

As life struggles to get back to a new “normal”, it can be a bit confusing and stressful.

Dr. Caitlyn M. Bennett

It can feel overwhelming, scary, and anxiety-provoking to think about sharing your personal experiences with someone new. However, taking this first step to begin counseling for yourself is one of the most important and courageous steps. I strive to create a safe space that allows you to feel comfortable in exploring your experiences and feelings while helping you to work towards wellness, peace, and healing. You are the expert of your life and I am here to help you make sense of it.

Krystal Pennington

I am here to walk alongside you in your journey to where you would like to be. Sometimes we know what our goals are but are unsure on what steps to take. I would be happy to walk alongside you on your journey and provide a safe and confidential environment where change can occur. I am passionate about helping clients discover their strengths and identities to create more conscientious and fulfilling relationships in your life. I love meeting new people and working to understand who they are.

Robert Kinney

Each individual's course of depression and anxiety is unique, so I approach each treatment plan with the time and care that it needs. I focus on helping clients notice strengths, feel less alone, and improve relationships.Maybe you feel alone, sad, and empty. Perhaps you have been struggling with these thoughts and feelings for a long time. Even now, you might wonder “do I even need therapy”? You’re not alone- many struggle for years before seeking counseling.

Deanna Potts

My core clientele: Female identified persons ages 25 to 55 that are struggling with body image, self esteem, and/or sexual issues (including orientation, expression, gender identity, desires, etc.) that may stem from being overweight, underweight, disabilities (mental or physical), gender dysphoria, sexual trauma, struggling/abusive relationships, recent break-up/divorce, religious upbringing or anything that has made you feel “less than” or “not enough”. I also work with couples and moresomes.

Angela Thompson

Clients that are willing to challenge their beliefs and be an active participate in therapy are clients that thrive. Challenging beliefs does not mean what you believe and think is wrong or right but challenging your mindset can determine if those beliefs are healthy or not, and how they help and/or hinder the person you want to be.

Gary McCrory

As an LMFT-A, I work with individuals, couples, and families dealing with a variety of mental health and interpersonal issues. I am passionate about working with diverse client populations, including racial/ethnic minorities, low socioeconomic status, addiction/recovery, and LGBTQIA+ individuals.

Dr. Mary Keyhan

Life can bring on many challenges. The first step toward changing difficult circumstances is to ask for help. I have experience helping clients who are experiencing depression, anxiety/stress, panic attacks, grief, and chronic illness. I have extensive training in couple therapy and infertility related issues.

Norma McCarthy

My clients are invested in personal growth. Examples of this may include: working through past issues that are negatively affecting their lives; learning/ implementing coping skills that work for them at this point in their lives; or just having a safe and confidential place where they can talk through struggles, gain perspective and make healthy decisions going forward. Whether it's anxiety, depression, PTSD or gaining a deeper understanding of themselves my clients inspire me everyday.

Shameela Keshavjee

When your relationship hurts, you hurt. Communication ends up in an argument. You’re dealing with the same problems over and over again. You’re missing out on intimacy and passion. You want a healthier relationship, but you don't know how to create it. The relationship you want is within reach! It takes dedication and conscious effort, but you can have the relationship of your dreams.

Jimmy McGuffin

I enjoy working with adults, adolescents, romantic partners, and families, across a variety of areas: identity exploration (emerging adulthood, spiritual, sexual/romantic orientation, gender expression, etc.), depression, anxiety, trauma, betrayal, family of origin/ attachment issues, relationship distress, sexual functioning, neurodiversity, and more.

Jeremy Pierce

Life is messy. There's just no getting around that fact. And often times, in an effort to escape the messiness of life, we find ourselves constructing elaborate masks to cover our pain and/or to hide our true selves from others. The more we live behind this mask the more dissonance and anxiety well feel about life. If you've reached the point where the mask has become to heavy to wear, or the price of living an inauthentic life has just become too high, then you're in the right place.

Kate Stark

My specialty niche is Autism, ADHD, depression or anxiety in children and adolescents, and neurodevelopmental differences comorbid with mood or anxiety concerns. I also have training and experience in assessment of dyslexia and learning disabilities. I have been grateful to receive training in school psychology and family therapy, which allows me to focus on the child's system in addition to individual concerns.

Aaron Relyea

Tired of diets and weight loss programs, ready to work on self-acceptance and body liberation. HAES aligned and intuitive eating informed. People needing an LGBTQ+ ally and Sex Positive counselor to work on improving consensual relationships with self and others.

Steffanie Grossman

I appreciate collaborating with MDs providing HRT and gender-affirming surgeries to best support my individual therapy clients. Additionally, my experience in working with the non-binary and gender expansive community includes delivering related trainings to a university as well as organizations in the DFW area, participating as a therapist on a Queers and Allies consultation and outreach team, and collaborating with a university LGBT Resource Center to develop outreach programs.
