About Wallace
Dr. Wallace "Dent" Gitchel focuses on helping people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or relationship strain. He speaks plainly and listens for what matters most to each person.
Clients can expect a steady, respectful presence aimed at practical change and clearer direction. He uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early connection patterns shape current relationships and emotions. He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and move toward values-based choices.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered methods offer hands-on tools for shifting unhelpful thinking and building coping skills. Dr. Gitchel holds a Licensed Professional Counselor credential, LPC, and practices in Arkansas.
He has three years of experience in this role and brings additional background working with grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, chronic illness, and identity concerns. He is familiar with a wide range of life stressors and mood challenges. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person's needs.
Expect straightforward exercises, gentle mindfulness practices, and time to talk through what matters to you. He aims to help people build resilience, repair important connections, and clarify life direction. People who prefer online options can meet by video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds affect current feelings and relationships and helps people notice patterns that repeat. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people accept uncomfortable thoughts and commit to actions that match their values, which can reduce avoidant coping. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and respect to create a steady space for people to clarify goals and make changes.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, strengths, and preferences, and will adjust techniques as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make work on attachment, values, and behavior practical. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for relational work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer writing between sessions or want flexible, on-the-go support. These options make it easier to keep consistent appointments and to practice skills in day-to-day life.
