Professional statement

Dr. Eve Merrill is a Psychologist located in Cedar Park, TX. Dr. Merrill supports children, teenagers, young adults, and adults who struggle to regulate their emotions. Many of her younger clients face challenges in school because of ADHD or anxiety. Other clients find it difficult to connect in meaningful ways with others, whether that’s because of attachment issues or low esteem. She also works with families who would like to build healthy patterns in their relationships.

Dr. Merrill adapts her approach in therapy based on the age and developmental stage of her clients. For her adult clients, she combines cognitive behavioral approaches with a more psychodynamic emphasis on past experiences. Clients learn how to monitor their thoughts for negative or harmful patterns while learning to change these unhealthy thought processes. They also benefit from processing through past traumas or challenges to reach a deeper understanding of where they come from. For younger clients, Dr. Merrill uses play therapy and family therapy to teach emotion regulation skills as well as relationship skills. As an EMDR certified therapist, Dr. Merrill works with clients of all ages to help her clients process and heal from past trauma. She opens the door for clients to talk openly about how they’re doing and where they would like to grow.

Dr. Merrill earned a PsyD from Yeshiva University. She previously worked in inpatient hospitals, residential treatment centers, and outpatient clinics across the country. From these former roles and her 20 years of experience, she has extensive experience working with a wide range of mental health challenges and is passionate about helping clients find lasting change in their lives.
