About William
William Alkhoury is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Arizona who helps people facing stress, anxiety, panic attacks, grief, low self-esteem, and life changes. He writes plainly and meets people where they are. His work often begins with what feels most urgent to a person and then moves toward small, practical steps that fit daily life.
William often uses questions about meaning and purpose as part of the conversation. He combines that focus with tools from cognitive behavioral methods to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. He also draws on mindfulness and skills from dialectical approaches to help with intense emotions and distress.
Clients can expect an approach that mixes talking through life questions with concrete skills practice. Sessions typically include time to check in on immediate problems, practice a coping skill, and reflect on personal values or goals. William frames therapy as a collaborative process rather than a lecture.
With nine years of experience in behavioral health, he brings steady guidance for people wrestling with emptiness, midlife questions, or the aftermath of trauma. His background includes work with obsessive thoughts, personality concerns, dissociation, and social anxiety. He balances attention to practical symptom relief with deeper questions about what gives life meaning.
William welcomes a thoughtful pace and uses examples from existential and Jungian ideas when these resonate. He invites people who feel stuck to explore both everyday changes and larger life purpose questions together.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
William commonly blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help with anxiety and panic. ACT focuses on clarifying personal values and accepting difficult thoughts so they have less control. This can help when panic or worry are interfering with what someone wants to do. CBT looks at the thoughts and behaviors that keep symptoms going and uses step-by-step experiments to test new ways of thinking and acting.He also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. DBT-based skills teach concrete ways to soothe strong feelings, stay present during intense moments, and improve interpersonal effectiveness. Those skills are useful when panic, shame, or overwhelm feel overwhelming in the moment.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to match methods to their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying tools, reflecting on what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than insisting on a single method.
