Why Choose CCA North Texas?
A Trusted Mental Health Clinic in North Texas, Founded by Dr. Suzanne Hales
What started in 1988 as a small practice is now one of the most established mental health clinics in North Texas: a multidisciplinary team of licensed professional counselors, psychologists, clinical social workers, marriage and family therapists, psychiatric nurse practitioners and psychiatrists. Because every discipline sits in the same building, a family can bring a child to play therapy, start couples counseling in McKinney and see a prescriber for medication without repeating their story to four different offices.
Our clinical intern program, supervised by licensed clinicians, has helped train counselors who now serve communities across Texas. Our intake team can help match you with a provider based on your concerns, preferred appointment format and current provider availability. When coming in is not realistic, telehealth counseling is available across Texas for many services.

Spravato Treatment in McKinney TX for Treatment Resistant Depression
What Is Spravato Treatment for Depression?
Spravato (esketamine) is a prescription nasal spray used in specific clinical situations for adults with treatment-resistant depression. At our certified McKinney clinic, treatment is provided under psychiatric supervision with monitoring after each dose. If standard depression treatments have not provided enough relief, speak with a qualified psychiatric provider to find out whether Spravato may be appropriate for you.

Common Questions
Counseling and Psychiatry in McKinney TX: Common Questions
How do I find a good therapist in McKinney?
Start with three things: the concern you want help with, the format you want (in person or online therapy), and practical fit such as insurance, evening hours and location. Then ask directly whether that clinician specializes in your concern. At CCA our intake staff does this matching for you over the phone, and switching therapists later is normal and never held against you.
What are the signs my child needs therapy?
Changes in sleep, appetite, school performance, friendships or behavior can sometimes be signs that a child may benefit from additional support. If you are concerned, speaking with a pediatrician or qualified mental health professional can help you decide what to do next.
Is play therapy good for children?
Yes. Children under roughly twelve rarely have the vocabulary to explain grief, anxiety or fear the way adults do, so play is the language they use instead. Registered play therapists read what a child expresses through toys, art and sand tray therapy, then work through it in that same language. Parent consultations run alongside the sessions.
How do I choose a marriage counselor?
Look for a clinician trained specifically in couples work rather than one who mainly sees individuals, ask how they handle sessions where one partner is more reluctant, and agree with your partner on what a good outcome looks like before you begin. Premarital counseling in McKinney TX follows the same principle and is far easier work than repair.
What is Spravato treatment for depression?
Spravato is administered in a certified clinical setting with monitoring after treatment. Your psychiatric provider can explain the potential benefits, risks and whether this treatment is appropriate for your situation.
Do You Accept Insurance, and Is a Therapist Accepting New Patients?
We accept most major insurance plans, and self pay rates are available. Coverage and provider availability change often, so call 972.542.8144 and our staff will verify your benefits and tell you which therapists and prescribers are currently accepting new patients.
Do You Offer Online Therapy in McKinney TX and Telehealth Counseling?
Yes. Telehealth counseling is available across North Texas and statewide for individual, couples, family and most psychiatric appointments. Some services, including play therapy and Spravato, need to happen in the office.
Do You Offer Counseling in Spanish With a Bilingual Therapist?
Yes. We have a bilingual therapist providing counseling in English and Spanish, and our team also speaks Amharic. Mention your language preference when you call so we can match you correctly.
Ready When You Are: Counseling and Psychiatry in McKinney, TX
You do not need a diagnosis, a crisis or the right words to make the first call. Whether you are looking for anxiety therapy, grief counseling, family therapy or psychiatric care with medication management, our team can help you understand your options. Call 972.542.8144 to get started. We are located at 1575 Heritage Drive, Suite 200, McKinney, TX 75069.
