Sexual Addiction Therapists in Dallas, TX

I have been a counselor for more than 30 years. I remain passionate about making a difference in the lives of others and believe that genuine caring is an essential element to an effective counseling relationship. Over the years I have worked with clients with significant trauma and loss. I consider it a privilege to stand with another individual as he or she resolves great pain. I am currently seeing clients exclusively via telemedicine (secure video platform). I am able to see clients in Texas, Kansas, Alabama, and California.

I specialize in working with individuals and couples struggling with relationship issues in this complicated generation of our planet. Primarily, relationship problems involving complex trauma, intimacy concerns, addictive behaviors and codependency. We will carefully untangle any anxiety, self-doubt, obsessive thinking or numbing with internet addictions, work or substances that may no longer be beneficial. Emphasis is placed on integrating new experiences into your life through awareness of where you may be "stuck" in your protective fight-or-flight responses.

My ideal client is one motivated for change, and is ready for richer relationships, more confidence in the workplace and a greater sense of joy in life. Sessions can be simple conversations in support of creating and accomplishing aims. They may also involve a deep inward search toward learning what patters of un/conscious thinking and associated emotional conditions might be keeping you stuck so to speak. The ultimate aim for all of my clients is a greater sense of satisfaction in feeling more alive.

While working with couples and families, I often see this pattern of listening to respond or proclaiming an assumption before truly hearing their loved one. It’s an unfortunate habit that can create insecurity, fear, anxiety, and distrust in relationships. Sometimes, slowing down and paying closer attention to the pattern of communication will help us catch these fears, concerns, insecurities or misunderstandings. Perhaps you’re feeling tired, frustrated, judged, or worst of all, alone.

Once you’ve found a therapist with a solid background in what you want to address, it is all about therapeutic approach and personality fit (the elusive rapport). In our initial introductory conversation (15 minute call) you can tell me about what you are looking for, I'll tell you about myself, and we’ll see if I am a fit.

Do you and your partner love each other, but you are not lining up when it comes to sex and intimacy? If sex has become a chore . . . if one of you has a way lower drive than the other . . . if initiating has gotten really awkward . . . reach out and let's talk! When left unchecked, sexual issues can become the elephant in the room and can even lead to the end of the relationship. I know this from personal experience! But, there is so much you can do to diagnose the real issues and get you back on the right track. Sometimes you just need a guide who has been down that road before.

Dennis is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). The ideal client for Dennis, is an adult experiencing anxiety, depressed mood, trauma (including PTSD), relationship challenges, or struggling with life's situational or transitional challenges.

My hope in therapy is that I might help you find a position of personal power, where you begin to face and conquer anxieties that may have kept you from fully enjoying life. There is so much beauty in human resiliency, and it is this attribute that makes it unnecessary for us to continue to dwell in past trauma, and gives us permission to find happiness. It is my belief that you were born to find a state of true, lasting happiness, and that you are not only capable, but deserving of this, because you are human.

I have a warm and relational style with my patients. This means I won't sit in silence staring at you the whole session. While I believe in allowing enough space for you to explore your own thoughts, I tend to be more of an active therapist.
