Coming to therapy is a rewarding experience you can give yourself to reach higher goals, feel more supported, and get some answers or treatment for challenges you have been struggling with. However, deciding to come to therapy does not take away from the challenge of finding the right “fit” for you. You may wonder, is this person equipped with the ability to help me? How will I know if I am picking the right person? Below are some statements made on the Dallas Whole Life Counseling public-facing pages for your consideration as you start the process of finding the right therapist for you. Our feelings and mental health are delicate enough, so we aim to help you feel more comfortable working through this very individual process.
“We saw Dr. Robbins to address communication and parenting issues, we had been to two other couples counselors in our 12 year marriage but didn’t feel like we got any concrete guidance. Dr. Robbins helped us put together a very clear action plan. We reached out goals, and are doing better than ever.” (ZocDoc)
“This is a wonderful practice and I consider myself very lucky to have found them. I saw James for a while out of network and he was worth his weight in gold. I truly appreciated the methods used as they really did help me to grow. James was perfectly compassionate and direct and I would highly recommend him to anyone.”(Google)
“From the very start, Whole Life made me feel very welcomed. It was an easy process to pick a counselor and they made me feel at ease once I started going. The counselors, staff, and even other clients are rooting for YOU at Whole Life!”(Facebook)
“Dr. Robbins changed my life. I walked in one person and found out another. I had several anxiety disorder and she gave me so many tools & helped me understand what it was coming from. I can’t say enough about this dear doctor. GO SEE HER!!” (ZocDoc)
“Dallas Whole Life Counseling has been a useful resource for me. In offering online appointments, Dallas Whole Life makes practicing mindfulness simple. Steve is the associate I speak with and he’s as dynamic as he is resourceful. I highly recommend the Dallas Whole Life experience.” (Google)

“I worked with Betsy in the office to get a counselor for my mother after the death of my father. Betsy bent over backwards to find the perfect counselor for her. Diane Williams was awesome. She is compassionate and helpful. These people are a gift from God. Our thanks to both Betsy and Diane for all that you do!” (Google)
“Ordinarily I am in good spirits. However, as life sometimes has it, I am in a situation that has made me pretty anxious. Dallas Whole Life Counseling (DWLC) was recommended to me. For that I am certainly thankful. Within DWLC I met and have been seeing Breanna Katz for counseling for several months. It has been a blessing as Breanna allows the flexibility to explore issues, yet sensitive enough about the more important issues to guide our conversations toward a more productive outcome. I think it is important to say that at session’s end, I feel better prepared to deal with those important issues that trigger the anxiety. I would, therefore, heartily recommend Breanna Katz and the Dallas Whole Life Counseling center when counseling seems to be the route to take.” (Google)
“Awesome Staff! Very clean and organised office. Friendly. Helpful. Dr. MacCray & Heather Robbins Are professionals with a personal touch to make a comfortable visit.” (ZocDoc)

“I value James as a counselor and as a friend. His knowledge and compassion make him a model therapist. I trust him completely.” (Google)
“Dr. Robbins was straight to the point. She gave clear and practical advice, which is exactly what I needed. She didn’t talk down to me, she helped me find solutions and really seemed to care about me.” (ZocDoc)
“I’ve known James Robbins for many years. I’ve always known him to be a person of high integrity, honesty and compassion. Being a therapist isn’t just a job for James, but a calling, Who he is as a therapist is who he is as a person. He’s never been one to “fake” things. He’s sincere in his concern for his patients, and invests 100% in their getting better. I’ve heard James say he learns from his clients, just as they learn from him, and I know how important it is for him to always be improving as a therapist. He’s not one to condescend or judge, as he feels people are doing the best they can in difficult circumstances. James comes from the heart, and is the most dedicated counselor I know. I recommend him to anyone who’s ready to take that next step in their life.” (Google)
“Heather was very professional, but also warm. Her sense of humor really brightened my day, even though I’d been feeling down. I left our first session feeling more hopeful than I had in months!” (ZocDoc)
“I have known the Robbins for decades and can attest that they are ethical, talented, and professional mental health providers. Heather and James were a great help to me when I was facing divorce after a long marriage. Today I find myself a content, well-rounded woman who enjoys life on her own terms. Although most of my experience has been with James and Heather, I know that all the professionals at DWLC are absolutely of the highest caliber, and would be happy to work with any of the clinicians at Dallas Whole Life Counseling.” (Google)
“I have been a client of both James and Heather Robbins for 4 years now. Initially, I sought therapy to address a difficult situation at the time. However, my experience was so positive that I have continued on as a client. I would say that without a doubt the advice and council I have received has improved the quality of my life significantly. James and Heather have a demeanor and style that is extremely versatile and appealing to all. In fact, when I got engaged I encouraged my fiance start seeing James. My fiance was not a believer in therapy and had never been to see a psychologist before. He found Jame’s advice to be so impactful that he now has a regular appointment with him and looks forward to their conversations. It is a unique offering to be able to get couple’s therapy from a very happily married couple. My fiance and I are very appreciative of all the help James and Heather have given our relationship.” (Google)
