Experienced behavioral scientist and clinician

About Dashiel

Dashiel Geyen is a licensed marriage and family therapist and licensed professional counselor practicing in Texas. He brings 25 years of experience as a behavioral scientist and clinical practitioner.

Background and approach

He has worked in hospitals and on college faculty, and he has published articles and chapters in academic outlets. He earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Lamar University and completed graduate degrees at Texas Southern University and the University of Texas-Houston.

He also completed post-doctoral fellowships and executive education at well-known public health and research institutions. These experiences shape his practical approach to care.

In sessions he aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about difficult thoughts and feelings. He focuses on clear communication and practical steps that people can test between meetings.

He encourages small, achievable changes rather than sweeping promises. Dashiel helps people address stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, relationship concerns, family and intimacy-related issues, coping with life changes, and ADHD.

He also has an additional focus on intellectual disability and adapts his work to each person’s needs. People can expect a collaborative process where therapist and client set goals together.

He offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs.

Evidence-based approaches and online care

Dashiel uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear steps and measurable change. One approach helps people build coping skills for stress and anxiety by teaching breathing, grounding, and behavior strategies to use when symptoms rise. Another approach concentrates on addiction and trauma-related patterns by examining triggers, developing safer alternatives, and practicing new responses to difficult memories.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist talks with each person about their goals, preferences, and daily routines and then tailors methods to fit those needs. Together they test what works and adjust the plan as progress or new challenges appear.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited local options. Video calls let the therapist and client work face to face when that is helpful. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is an issue. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins and ongoing support between sessions. These options help make regular care more practical and consistent.
