Meet Alison

I'm Alison Bailey, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Fort Worth, Texas.

 

With over 15 years of experience specializing in trauma, EMDR, and healing from abuse. I help clients understand themselves better while experiencing compassion and grace.

 

Whether you're recovering from narcissistic abuse, working through anxiety and panic attacks, navigating past trauma, or feeling stuck in harmful patterns, we'll work together to create lasting change.

Meet Alvin

I'm Alvin Bautista, the office manager of Untanglife Counseling. For over six years, I've been dedicated to a mental health practice, finding profound purpose in supporting others on their journeys toward well-being.

​

This work is a core part of who I am, and I believe strongly in the power of sustained, empathetic care.

 

Outside of my practice, I seek balance through creative expression. I am a musician in a band, primarily playing the guitar and the drums. Music is my vital outlet, providing the rhythm and energy that complements my professional life.
