I am Dr. Dixon!
Hello there,
(License no. TX#38658; PSYPACT/APIT#14544; LSOTP#99784)
As a dedicated administrative professional with a Bachelor of Science in Microbiology, I am passionate about supporting helpful initiatives within the realm of mental health. I want to bring empathy and innovative ideas to my administrative tasks to ensure smooth operations while prioritizing compassion for clients.
Outside of DPS-ACT, I enjoy video games, photography, videography, graphic design, and music production, finding balance and inspiration in creative pursuits to keep my own mental health at its best.
I aim to contribute positively to the mental health journey of clients and colleagues alike so let's chat, schedule an appointment, or simply connect. I'm not just here for business; I'm here for you, your well-being, and your journey to mental health and happiness!
In my role as Client Care Coordinator and Executive Assistant, I'm here to make your experience as smooth as possible. From scheduling appointments to handling billing queries, I've got you covered.
I'm Shannon, your go-to person at DPS-ACT!
My journey through various leadership positions in nationwide and global healthcare organizations, including Medsynergies, Optum, US Anesthesia Partners, and EXL, has equipped me with the knowledge to ensure that DPS-ACT's financial gears turn seamlessly. This, in turn, enables our compassionate clinicians to wholeheartedly devote their attention to nurturing the psychological well-being of our valued clients.
In a previous chapter of my life, I proudly served as a Gunnersmate and a dedicated Rescue Swimmer in the US Navy, where I undertook critical missions with a focus on humanitarian support and personal well-being. My educational journey led me to Texas Christian University and American Military University, where I acquired a Bachelor of Science in Political Science and a Master's in Business Administration and Analytics. This academic foundation has been instrumental in blending analytical acumen with the leadership skills vital to our dynamic field of psychology and mental health.
With over 15 years of experience in the healthcare sector, I've honed my financial expertise to cater specifically to the unique demands of our practice.
I'm Chase, Your financial virtuoso within our practice, DPS-ACT.
Beyond my financial acumen, I'm an avid scuba diver, a nature enthusiast, and a passionate hockey aficionado. In my downtime, I relish spending quality moments with my beloved wife, family, and cherished friends. And let's not forget the unconditional love and companionship of my four-legged fur children.
My story is a tapestry of dedication, resilience, and versatility, drawing from my military experience, academic achievements, and a profound appreciation for life. My presence here is a testament to DPS-ACT's unwavering commitment to the psychological well-being of our clients.
I'm Shiloh, a summer undergraduate intern for Dr. Dixon at DPS-ACT!
Currently a senior at the University of Missouri, I am receiving my Bachelor of Science in Psychology while minoring in Criminology. I hope to be helpful and make a positive impact here at DPS-ACT as I learn from Dr. Dixon.
Psychology has always fascinated me, especially how mental health varies for each individual. After graduation, I plan to attend graduate school as I'm looking forward to starting my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology.
I have over a year of experience as a behavioral health technician in inpatient psychiatry which has helped me make client care top priority. I hope to bring compassionate listening and empathy to my time here at DPS-ACT as I have listened to so many stories and life experiences.
I'm excited to help around the practice this summer and continue my education in the best way possible. Let's connect, converse, and help with your journey to better mental health!
I'm Nathan, a mental health provider at DPS-ACT!
As a mental health provider at DPS-ACT, I'm thrilled to welcome you and share a bit about my journey and passions. With a deep love for helping people overcome their unique challenges, I've dedicated my career to making a difference in mental health and social work.
After earning my bachelor's degree in psychology from the University of Texas at Tyler in 2006, I dived into the mental health field at Parkland Hospital in Dallas, Texas. My journey continued with the Colorado Department of Corrections, where I worked as a Sex Offender Therapist. From 2008 to 2011, I played a key role in writing policies and developing programs for individuals facing mental health and substance abuse issues at the Dallas County Judicial Treatment Center. I also pursued a master's degree in Social Work from Texas A&M Commerce, completing an enriching internship with Rockwall County Juvenile Services. In 2011, I began an exciting chapter with the Federal Bureau of Prisons, where I had the opportunity to work in various roles, honing my skills and broadening my experience. I am currently being supervised by Dr. De'An Olson, Ph.D., LCSW-S (TX License No. 23146).
In my free time, you'll often find me enjoying the company of my dogs, getting my hands dirty with house restoration and rebuilding projects, hitting the trails for a run, or competing in exhilarating Ragnar events.
I'm here to offer support, guidance, and evidence-based strategies tailored to your needs, aiming to empower you to lead a fulfilling life. If you have any questions or need further information, please don't hesitate to reach out. I look forward to the chance to work together and help you achieve your goals.
We are here to provide you with the expertise, tools, and therapeutic support needed to navigate the challenges you're facing.
Whether through assessments, therapy, or consultation, our goal is to guide you toward mental health, resilience, and a brighter future.
After dedicating almost eight years to serving the Department of Justice, I took a leap of faith into the realm of private practice, further extending my commitment to empowering individuals on a more personal level.
Additionally, I highly value the opportunity to serve and give back to the local community. I am currently honored to serve as the President-Elect of the Fort Worth Psychological Association, actively contributing to the betterment of our community. I'm also an engaged member within the Texas Psychological Association, as well as Certified Sex Offender Therapist and Association for the Treatment and Prevention of Sexual Abuse, where I continue to deepen my expertise and expand my network.
Dr. Dixon speaking here! From my earliest memories, I have held a deep-seated belief in the power of helping individuals find their voice and advocate for themselves, especially during their most challenging moments. The drive to assist others has always been my unwavering passion.
