903 Counseling
College is a lot. Between classes, relationships, family expectations, work, and figuring out who you are, it can feel like you’re carrying more than anyone realizes. At 903 Counseling, we offer a space where you don’t have to have it all together. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, stress, burnout, life transitions, relationships, homesickness, or simply feeling overwhelmed, we’re here to help. Our approach is genuine, down-to-earth, and focused on real life—not judgment. You don’t have to navigate college alone. We’re here to help you build confidence, find balance, and move forward with support that feels human. In-person and virtual appointments available.
Kate Hilton
Hi, I'm Kate! As a therapist in Dallas, I help young adults navigating life stress and identity issues break free from unhelpful patterns by collaborating with them to uncover what they need so that they can feel empowered to create a fulfilling, meaningful life. I specialize in working with couples on issues like conflict resolution, communication, and premarital preparation, as well as supporting twenty-somethings through life stress, identity exploration, and dating challenges. I strive to be a safe and welcoming space for individuals of all backgrounds and identities.
Lindsay Merrell
Life often asks women to hold so much—caring for others, navigating relationships, balancing responsibilities, and carrying silent struggles that can feel overwhelming. If you’ve been moving through an eating disorder, body image concerns, grief, trauma, fertility challenges, or simply the load of expectations, you deserve a place that feels safe, affirming, and collaborative. In our work together, you’ll find space to be fully seen and supported, with compassion guiding every step as you reconnect with your strength, your voice, and your true self. I offer a compassionate, collaborative space where honesty, care, and curiosity guide our work. Rather than quick fixes, I help you slow down, listen inward, and reconnect with parts of yourself that feel lost. Together, we’ll build safety and trust while using evidence-based approaches to support meaningful, lasting healing. Here, every part of you is welcome—your questions, your grief, your dreams, and your story. This is a place to release what you’ve been carrying, to feel deeply supported, and to rediscover your resilience. I'll honor your process, creating space for healing, growth, and a return to you, but an updated you that feels in alignment with where you see yourself.

One Foot Forward Counseling
Starting therapy does not mean you are falling apart. Sometimes it just means you are ready to stop carrying everything alone. I work with college students and young adults who are trying to balance school, work, family, relationships, stress, anxiety, and everything else that comes with figuring life out. Some come to therapy feeling overwhelmed or burned out. Others are navigating trauma, self-doubt, relationship challenges, or patterns they are tired of repeating. I also enjoy working with BIPOC students, first-generation students, student veterans, service members, and military-connected students. Therapy with me is a space where you can be honest about what you are carrying, sort through what feels heavy, and feel like someone actually gets it. We can start wherever you are.

Life has a way of exhausting us, especially when it feels like we’re chasing standards no one could possibly meet. I know this struggle deeply. Like so many of us, I’ve juggled work, relationships and other obligations while forgetting to take care of myself. I know what it feels like to carry heavy expectations—as a woman of color and a child of an immigrant, I’ve often felt the weight of needing to be strong, capable, and successful all at once. I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety and depression, and overcome the challenges of life transitions. As a new mother, I have expanded my skills in supporting perinatal individuals as well.
Dallas Therapy Associates
Kirsten works with children, adolescents, and adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, neurodivergence, and other emotional difficulties. She is passionate about creating a warm, supportive environment where clients feel safe to be themselves, explore their experiences, and move toward meaningful healing and growth. Her therapeutic approach is person-centered, trauma-informed, and strengths-based while integrating CBT, DBT, and her EMDR training when clinically appropriate. Kirsten believes there is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy and tailors treatment to each client's unique goals, experiences, and values. She is committed to creating an affirming, nonjudgmental space where clients of all backgrounds feel respected and supported.

Sarah Scott
Mental health is defined as the ability to love, and the ability to work; to be able to have stable and emotionally fulfilling relationships with others, to take care of your daily needs, and to be able to enjoy using your time creatively and productively. As a counselor, I aim to join with my clients and help them identify their troubles, explore their origins, and create unique solutions to help them live the life they hope for. While my work is very relational and focuses more on meeting the unique needs of individuals, I use specific techniques drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy Skills, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I have seven years experience working with young adults, especially neurodivergent young adults on the autism spectrum or with ADHD or learning differences. I particularly enjoy vocational counseling and helping clients navigate life transitions. Many of my clients have complicated diagnositic histories and may have struggled to connect with other counselors in the past. I accept insurance through Headway and also accept private pay through card, cash, check, or Zelle. Please feel free to ask me about sliding scale.
