Dr. Messina is a warm and compassionate therapist who helped my family in our time of need. He was always responsive, friendly and relatable to my teen (and his parents), and provided great tips and insight for anxiety/OCD. Highly recommend.
Our experience with Dr. Messina was great from start to finish. He responded to my email inquiring about his services the same day which I did not get from several other therapists I contacted in the past.During the initial call he took time to address all of my questions, concerns and got my son set up with an appointment immediately.He was extremely professional, knowledgeable, attentive, understanding and very helpful with his insight for my 16 year old son who suffers from depression and extreme social anxiety.I would highly recommend him!
As a therapist myself, I was very picky when I needed to choose a psychologist for my son and I am so glad that I chose Dr. Messina. He is very knowledgeable and extremely patient which was the combination that we needed. My son loved going to Dr. Messsina’s office and he showed significant improvement when we were working with him! I highly recommend him!
So grateful for the amazing care from the team at Dr. Messina’s practice. The attention to detail for the patients specific needs and thoughtfulness has been incredible. Thank you to your amazing team. You’ve been an answered prayer for us.
My family enjoyed working with Dr. Messina. He is a very caring and attentive therapist with lots of good tips. He helped our teen with his anxiety/depression and I highly recommend him.
Dr Messina was wonderful. I have had issues sleeping recently and within one session he was able to listen, understand and provide a few at home exercises that when done helped my sleeping issues. Dr Messina was very good with communication pre and post visit. I highly recommend using him for any issues.
Dr. Messina is amazing! He is understanding, patient, kind and truly listens and cares. He’s the best of the best and I highly recommend!!

I have sought out services In the field of psychology since 2016 and I have never encountered a Doctor that goes above and beyond to accommodate his clients. Dr. Messina genuinely care’s, he is well experienced In the field, he is extremely compassionate and very flexible with scheduling in office or through video calls. .During the COVID pandemic I reached out to Dr. Messina who answered his own phone Wow !! I was stunned by the fact that I reached the doctor himself and not a voicemail however he is quick to respond if you have to leave a message. The world could use many more Doctors like Dr. Messina, so if you are seeking care in the field of psychology for yourself or a loved one look no further you have find a one of a kind practice where they strive for excellence in the services provide.

I have known Dr. Messina for over ten years and he has provided his expertise to help my son. He has a wealth of diverse clinical experience in addition to his own life experience of being a parent himself. He is patient, personable and asks detailed questions to ensure he understands each situation in order to effectively meet your goals and needs. He is outstanding and I highly recommend him if your are looking for a reliable and qualified psychologist. A
I am very grateful to have meetDr. Messina. Through numerous meetings he helped me work through traumatic events in my childhood that continued to affect my adult life. He treated me with care and I never felt judged or rushed. He is a very kind person and a gifted therapist. I highly recommend him.
Dr. Messina is extremely professional, attentive, and caring. It is a pleasure to know him and I highly recommend him!! (:
Helped my 12 year old son with some intense anxiety. Saw marked change in just 6 or 7 sessions. Very pleased. We now go every other week. Effective counseling involves the whole family. It’s not easy, but effective.
I was recommended to him by a close friend and through him my recovery journey started. Dr. Messina is truly an expert in his field and actually cares for his clients. I highly recommend him to anyone who is dealing with issues in his field of expertise.
Dr Messina helped me so much, I went to him for a few months and he helped me deal with depression, anxiety, and low self confidence. He helped me realize so much about myself and today I am so happy with everything in my life. It is great having a therapist like Dr Messina.
Extremely personable and down to earth. Highly recommend.
My wife and I have definitely benefited from Dr. Messinas counseling. He helped us through some major life decisions! He displays a compassionate and caring demeanor that invites a feeling of trust. I highly recommend Dr. Messina to anyone looking for a breakthrough in their life!
Its rare to find a such a great Doctor as Dr. Messina. Very professional. Extremely caring. And very knowledgeable. Dr. Messina is growing more popular by the day, make sure to schedule your appointment today!Jeff Rose
Dr. Messina is a sincere, approachable individual. After having met him, it is clear that his passion lies in helping others. He has high professional and ethical standards, and is committed to the success and well being of others.
Michael is quite caring, and has many years of experience. However, he was scared of us just after 30 minutes and asked us to leave. I hardly blame him, however we liked him. He seems suitable for issues such as anxiety, depression, and typical life issues.
Dr. Messina was great for our family!!! He was so helpful with one of our children and for us as a family!!!
Our family cannot recommend Dr. Messina enough. When our 14 yo started having problems with depression and anxiety, I turned to recommendations from a moms group and Google. It was the reviews on google that had me call Dr. Messina and for once, they werent wrong, yall! From the first session, Dr. Messina helped put us at ease and our son, who has trouble trusting people, took to him immediately. Dr. Messina kept us involved with his approach and the skills he was teaching our son to help him navigate life a little easier. It was amazing to sit in the room and watch my highly intelligent and overthinker son get lightbulb moments when Dr. Messina would talk about ways to keep him out of his depression. Made this mommas heart so happy. ❤ We are now seeing Dr. Messina on an as needed basis and we feel we have our son back. Thank you, Dr. Messina for your gentle manner and for always making sure we were all on the same page before we left the room. We appreciate you!
Dr. Messina was very professional, great with my teenage son and also great a communicating with me so we worked as a team. I would highly recommend him!
I have known Dr. Michael Messina for several years, and In that time I have seen him walk away from benign, bureaucratic positions to dedicate his life to what he loves the most... helping people. He gives his heart and attention to the people he serves by building bridges to connect. I think what makes Dr. Messina a fantastic counselor is that he has experienced significant tragedy in his own life, which makes him approach the people he works with in humility and empathy with the goal of creating steps to overcome.
Big help with helping me understand and manage by sleep issues. Very, very caring
My 5-year-old loves to see Dr. Messina! Through fun games, he gets the therapy that he needs (he doesn’t even realize that he goes to “therapy”). He just has a good time w/ his “friend” learning about board games. I highly recommend Dr. Messina! I can’t say enough good things about him! I’ve seen such a huge difference in my son since his therapy sessions with him. Dr. Messina always has good suggestions and he genuinely cares about everyone in his office! He’s the BEST in Southlake!
Wonderful doctor, caring and understanding, it was a blessing talking to him. Thank you
After a couple of face to face meet ups I can say, with confidence, that I havent meet a man that has a more attentive and kind heart to help me face lifes challenges. I would recommend him to those that suffer from feeling overwhelmed and in need of direction in life.
Dr Messina helped my 17 year old son deal with his OCD using ERP therapy. He was amazing and taught him to beat his fear of germs in only four sessions! We had already been to the doctor and a counselor with no results. I highly recommend Dr. Messina!
Dr. Messina has been a great resource for our young family. We really appreciate all of his great insight into raising a young child in Orange County.
