Who we are

Founded in 2019 by Dr. Brittany Escuriex, SEP and Dr. Danica Harris, SEP, Empowered Healing Dallas ® was created to be more than just a therapy practice. We saw a gap in traditional therapy: many approaches ignored the impact of the socio-political climate, systemic oppression, and discrimination on people’s mental health.

 

Empowered Healing Dallas ® was born out of a vision—to build a social justice-informed therapeutic space where humans of all identities, bodies, and backgrounds can find safety, support, and connection.

Our Philosophy

We believe that therapy should be a place where you feel safe, seen, and heard. Your lived experience, including your identities, cultural background, and history, deeply shapes the way you move through the world.


Our therapists embrace a holistic and intersectional approach, welcoming every part of who you are. We honor your resilience and see you as the expert of your own story. Our role is to walk alongside you—helping you slow down, reconnect with yourself, and discover authentic growth and healing.

OUR COMMITMENTS

At Empowered Healing Dallas ®, our values aren’t just words. They guide every session, every relationship, and every choice we make as a practice.

 

We commit to:

  • Believing that Black Lives Matter.
  • Standing against racism, hate, and intolerance in all forms.
  • Recognizing and disrupting systemic racism in ourselves and our communities.
  • Affirming gender diversity and celebrating gender expression.
  • Providing safety and affirming care for LGBTQIA+ clients.
  • Believing that Trans lives matter.
  • Creating a body-neutral zone, free from size bias and diet culture.
  • Supporting body and reproductive autonomy.

What Makes Us Different

Most therapy practices focus only on symptoms. At Empowered Healing Dallas ®, we focus on you as a whole person. This means we don’t just treat anxiety, depression, or trauma—we also recognize how cultural, systemic, and relational experiences contribute to your mental health.

 

We offer specialized therapy for:

  • Trauma survivors navigating PTSD and complex trauma
  • Couples seeking reconnection through Emotion-Focused Therapy
  • Teens needing a safe space to be seen and heard
  • High-achievers & helpers struggling with burnout or perfectionism
  • LGBTQIA+ clients seeking affirming care
  • Adult children of immigrants balancing cultural expectations and self-discovery
  • Individuals looking to create safe and meaningful relationships.

How We Help

Our Dallas therapists are trained in approaches like:

  • EMDR Therapy – to help resolve stuck trauma responses
  • Somatic Therapy – to reconnect mind and body
  • Internal Family Systems (IFS) – to explore and heal inner parts of self
  • Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) – to strengthen relationships and connection
  • Mindfulness & expressive arts – to create new pathways to healing
  • Attachment Based Therapy – to help you consider how your past is influencing your present

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all therapy. Together, you and your therapist will co-create a plan that feels safe, manageable, and empowering.

Who We Serve

We welcome and affirm clients across all identities and experiences, including:

  • BIPOC communities
  • LGBTQIA+ clients
  • People of size and body-diverse identities
