About Dallas

Dallas McGlinn is an LCSW with five years of clinical experience licensed in Tennessee and Louisiana. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, relationship and family concerns, addiction, and major life changes. Dallas also helps with career questions, self-esteem, anger, depression, and compassion fatigue.

Her approach emphasizes practical, structured methods alongside a person-focused conversation. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and habits. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered listening, existential questions about meaning, and mindfulness practices.

Sessions typically involve identifying patterns that keep problems going and trying small, concrete changes. She supports people as they practice new coping skills between meetings. Counseling can include talking through family of origin issues, blended family concerns, or communication challenges.

Dallas has experience addressing medical and caregiving challenges such as cancer, chronic pain, aging and geriatric issues, and caregiver stress. She also works with codependency, eating and food-related concerns, guilt and shame, forgiveness, and control issues.

Faith-based preferences are available for clients who want them, while others can focus on secular strategies. People can expect focused discussions about goals, step-by-step skills, and options for applying those skills in daily life. To begin, readers should confirm session options and use the listed intake pathway to schedule a first appointment.

How CBT, ACT, and Client-Centered Work Online

Dallas uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify patterns of thinking that increase stress or anxiety and then practice concrete alternatives. CBT sessions often include short experiments, behavior changes, and skill practice that translate well to remote work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match personal values; it can help with grief, chronic illness, and major life changes. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and reflection so the person can clarify goals and priorities.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they choose which methods to try and adjust them based on how the person responds.

Confirm current session formats before booking since details are listed during intake. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when needed. They can also support ongoing skill practice between meetings. Ask about specific session options when scheduling so arrangements match daily life and technical needs.
