About Wallace
Dr. Wallace "Dent" Gitchel is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage anger, stress, anxiety, and life transitions. He brings a calm, down-to-earth presence to sessions and focuses on practical steps people can use day to day.
He works in Arkansas and offers services in English. He uses a mix of approaches to match what each person needs. That can mean learning skills from cognitive behavioral therapy to change unhelpful thinking, using acceptance and commitment therapy to clarify values and take meaningful action, or drawing on attachment-based ideas to understand relationship patterns.
Background and approach
Mindfulness practices are often woven in to help people notice feelings without being overwhelmed. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical tools. He helps people build coping strategies for anger, addiction, grief, and work or relationship strain.
Conversations aim to make problems smaller and more manageable rather than leave them vague or huge. Dr. Gitchel describes his style as warm and accepting.
He emphasizes autonomy and works collaboratively so people keep control of their choices. He also offers coaching-style support when clients want focused, goal-oriented work. He is licensed as an LPC in Arkansas.
He has three years of experience as a therapist and uses session formats that fit different schedules, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that works for them.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings show up. It is useful for anger, life changes, and ongoing anxiety. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, and compulsive reactions. It is practical and skill-based for many day-to-day problems. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices so people can notice emotions without being swept away, which supports work on stress, anger, and grief.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist works together with each person to pick methods that fit their goals, style, and the specific issues they bring. That collaborative planning can change over time as progress is made or priorities shift.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to give people options that fit their rhythm. Video is good for a fuller conversation and exercises that use visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework support, or when a written record of the conversation is helpful. These options make it easier to get regular support around work, family, or mobility constraints.
