Doolittle Therapy Group
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
At Doolittle Therapy Group, we understand that eating disorders impact not only the individual, but also the relationships and emotional connections surrounding them. Using an Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and family-centered approach, we help clients and their families explore the underlying emotional experiences and relational patterns that often contribute to disordered eating.
Rather than focusing solely on behaviors, we work to uncover the emotions, attachment needs, and cycles of disconnection that may be driving them. As families learn to respond with greater understanding and emotional attunement, individuals often feel less alone, more supported, and better equipped to move toward healing in a connected and sustainable way. We work often with higher levels of care and have experience within those treatment centers, so we are an outpatient step down for those transitioning out after treatment as well.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in eating disorders, my treatment approach is comprehensive and compassionate, focusing on addressing the complex psychological, emotional, and behavioral aspects of these disorders. I utilize evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and family-based treatment (FBT) to help individuals develop a healthier relationship with food, body image, and self-esteem. Through individual and group therapy sessions, I assist clients in identifying and challenging disordered thoughts and behaviors, while also addressing underlying emotional issues and past traumas that may contribute to the development of an eating disorder. Collaborating closely with a multidisciplinary team, including physicians and dietitians, I aim to provide comprehensive care and support tailored to each individual's needs. My goal is to empower clients to overcome their eating disorders, restore their physical and emotional well-being, and cultivate a fulfilling life beyond the confines of their illness.

James Parker
Psychologist, PhD
My approach to therapy is primarily guided by Coherence Therapy. Coherence Therapy is an approach to treatment that is different from many others in that - instead of focusing on what is "negative" or "wrong" and trying to change or alter it - the purpose is to genuinely understand a person's symptoms; to curiously explore why maintaining certain patterns of thinking and behavior is emotionally necessary, even when a person is feeling stuck because of those patterns. Understanding the symptom leads to identifying the underlying emotional reasons of why we do things and addresses the cause of feeling stuck, not just the symptom, which then leads to meaningful and lasting changes. That means we will use real experiences from your life - about disordered eating, or anything else - to help you make sense of and overcome the difficulties related to it.

Discovery Point Retreat
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, LegitScript and Joint Commissions

Denton is a Texas college city home to the University of North Texas—one of the largest universities in the state—and Texas Woman's University, giving it a character defined by youth, diversity, and a vibrant arts and music scene that sets it apart from the typical Dallas-Fort Worth suburb. Both universities operate counseling centers that are important resources for their respective student bodies, and UNT's graduate programs in counseling and psychology contribute significantly to the local supply of trained therapists. A strong local arts community, LGBTQ+ affirming culture, and a generally progressive political identity relative to the broader Texas context make Denton a sought-after location for therapists and clients who value affirming, identity-conscious care. Common therapy concerns include student mental health, creative community well-being, LGBTQ+ identity and relationships, anxiety, and the pressures of academic life in large public university environments.
