Couples often wait 7 years prior to seeking professional help. It is unsurprising that many couples who seek couples therapy have experienced chronic conflict, resentment, and disconnection, which paralyzes the growth of their relationship. Dr. Holt’s passion involves helping couples caught in a vicious cycle find true healing, safety, and deep connection again. Her approach centers on addressing the unresolved attachment injuries—such as feelings of rejection or inadequacy—that fuels the negative cycle couples experience. When the attachment injuries remain untreated, this hinders the security and connection between partners.
Dr. Holt skillfully guides couples, families, & individuals in the DFW area, dedicating herself to family systems & evidence-based therapeutic methods, incl. Emotionally Focused Therapy, which have proven lasting efficacy & change. Her clinical focus: high-conflict couples, high-achieving professionals & dual-career couples, notably healthcare professionals.
As a systemic & relational therapist, Dr. Holt understands the extended pain that both partners hold & the extensive care each partner needs to fully engage in the therapeutic work. She recognizes the varying worldviews partners bring. Dr. Holt creates an empathic, non-pathologizing, & impartial space where couple members feel safe, seen & deeply understood.
