My Approach to Helping
Hello! I'm Dr. David Haralson. If you are looking for exceptional, world-class therapy, look no further. I help clients (and their families) to "reach their oasis" - a place within their nervous system where they feel calm and connected. I go beyond simply helping my clients feel understood (although that will happen too), by gently helping them face and overcome their fears.
My approach is gentle, playful, honest, family-oriented, transparent, and evidenced-based.
I provide therapy in English and Spanish. The therapy approaches I use most often are social, emotional, and symbolic – narrative and solution-focused therapy, emotionally-focused therapy, symbolic-experiential, lifespan integration (LI), and play therapy. I have a masters in Marriage and Family Therapy and a PhD in Medical Family Therapy.
I specialize in behavioral problems for young children, emotionally-focused therapy for couples, and gender-related challenges for teens and young adults.
