About William

Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Arizona with nine years of clinical experience. William Alkhoury helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self‑esteem, depression, and the practical challenges of life changes. He integrates meaning-focused work with evidence-based therapies to address both immediate symptoms and deeper questions about purpose.

William frames therapy around what matters to a person now and going forward. He uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thought patterns and build skills that reduce distress. He also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for emotion regulation, and existential and Jungian ideas when clients want to talk about meaning, identity, and life purpose.

Sessions involve talking through current problems and trying small behavioral experiments. William helps people notice patterns in thinking and behavior, practice mindfulness skills, and pick actions that align with their values. He uses clear, concrete steps rather than abstract theory alone.

People who bring questions about emptiness, midlife shifts, grief, or recurring anxiety will find a mix of short-term tools and deeper exploration. He addresses issues like obsessive thoughts, panic attacks, dissociation, shame, isolation, communication problems, and challenges that come with aging.

William combines clinical methods with philosophical inquiry when that fits the client’s goals. He encourages practical changes alongside reflections about meaning, so people can manage today while clarifying what they want next.

How his approaches translate to online work

William commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in his work. ACT focuses on clarifying values and taking committed action even when uncomfortable thoughts or feelings are present. It helps people who feel stuck or unsure what matters to them. CBT targets specific thinking and behavior patterns by testing beliefs and trying behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms.

He also draws on elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed. DBT offers concrete skills for managing intense feelings, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and creating steadier daily routines.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. William will discuss how these methods could fit the client’s goals and adjust course based on what works. He combines short-term skills work with deeper conversations about meaning when that aligns with the person’s preferences.

The practical benefits of remote work include fitting sessions around life and minimizing travel time. Confirm the available session formats before booking, since specific formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to schedule brief check-ins, use screen-shared worksheets, and practice mindfulness or behavioral tasks between meetings.
