About William
William Alkhoury is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Arizona who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and major life transitions.
Background and approach
He draws on nearly a decade of clinical experience to support clients confronting emptiness, questions about life purpose, and other challenges that can leave daily living feeling strained or uncertain. His approach blends cognitive behavioral techniques with meaning-centered and existential perspectives to help clients clarify values, reframe unhelpful thinking, and explore deeper questions about purpose and identity.
William also integrates elements from acceptance and commitment work, dialectical behavior strategies, and Jungian thought when they align with a person’s goals. That blend aims to balance practical skills for symptom relief with reflective exploration of what matters most.
William works with people facing a wide range of concerns including panic and social anxiety, obsessive-compulsive patterns, trauma-related issues, personality difficulties, isolation, and aging-related questions. He brings a thoughtful, philosophical orientation to therapy while keeping sessions grounded in concrete tools and collaborative planning.
Therapeutic approaches and online access
William integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, offering practical strategies for anxiety, depression, and stress-related symptoms. He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to encourage people to clarify values, build psychological flexibility, and commit to meaningful action even when uncomfortable feelings arise. When helpful, elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) are used to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills that support day-to-day functioning.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and William works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. He aims to blend reflective exploration about meaning and values with concrete tools so clients can both understand and manage their struggles.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility. These options make it possible to engage in regular therapy while accommodating varied schedules and communication styles, and they allow continuity of care when in-person meetings are impractical.
