Our Response to COVID-19

We are aware that during this unusual time period that our services may need to be adjusted to meet client needs. In general, it has been our belief that face-to-face counseling is the most effective. In today’s world situation, however, we recognize some may prefer or need to stay in. In the light of this, we’re offering the option of telephone or encrypted telemed counseling to current and new clients. (These services are now offer through HIPPA compliant and encrypted services.) This option involves new clients filling out intake forms (links on first page of this site) and either faxing them to (817) 275-3720 or emailing them to our office at centerstaff@hotmail.com. Arrangement of payment method needs to be made with our office and we are glad to file insurance claims when appropriate. Credit cards are accepted. Our therapists are licensed in the state of Texas and we’re only offering this service to individuals in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.

Our offices are sanitized daily and staff will maintain the appropriate distance. Safety is very much our concern.

If you are an existing client, just call the office and let it be known that you prefer this method of getting therapy. 817-275-3617 Your therapist will call you to arrange a session time. If you’re a new client, Dr. Carol Doss will return your call. You can fax in your intake form(s), which will be given to your therapist.

We want to be of help to anyone we can during this time of anxiety and uncertainty.

Marital/Couple Counseling

counseling-marital

Creating and maintaining a happy, healthy marriage can be a difficult job. With the demands of work and family, finances and children, people can lose track of the attraction that first drew them together. They can still love each other, but not know how to live together happily.

There is no such thing as one “bad” person in a marriage. Without exception, both partners contribute to the problems in the relationship. Our counselors know this and don’t seek to establish blame, but try instead to help couples learn how to handle the conflicts threatening their relationships.

Unresolved conflict eats at the fabric of committed relationships, sometimes allowing outside influences to intrude into the weakened union. Couples fight over money, children, sex, in-laws and religion, to name the top five. They may have long-term conflicts over specific behaviors or a situation may suddenly erupt and disrupt the relationship.

Communication can be blocked. Sometimes people have a hard time identifying their feelings, much less telling them to their partners. Anger, disappointment, and loneliness are difficult feelings to handle. Our counselors are trained to help work through couple conflicts. If couples are committed to the relationship, resolution can be achieved regardless of the conflict.
