Shaalon Joules is the official psychologist for the Texas Legends. She feels that Frisco is a good place for her business because people are open to seeking therapy and the city provides a business-friendly environment. “Mental health services in the community provide people with the opportunity to discuss stressful and challenging issues in a confidential environment. People have the freedom to truly express themselves, without fear of reprisal. When a person can do that, they can learn new aspects about themselves and their situation, which can alter how they lead their lives. The less stressed, depressed or anxious people feel, the more present, productive and involved they are in their daily lives and in their communities,” she says.
Dr. Joules earned her Ph.D. in clinical psychology from The Ohio State University and moved to Texas in 2007. She taught doctoral students in psychology before deciding to start her own private practice in 2010 in Dallas. She moved her practice to Frisco in 2011. She shares, “I look forward to the city providing more opportunities for families, businesses and entertainment.”
