I’m DiDi Kidder, LCSW-S
I believe that solutions exist even in the midst of challenges.
It may not feel like it right now, but these solutions once uncovered have the power to enhance your life.
I became a therapist in Arlington Tx because I desired to create a space where breakthroughs and solution-driven choices unfold.
FEEL SEEN & UNDERSTOOD
INCREASE SELF-AWARENESS
ACCOMPLISH PERSONAL GOALS
Are You Ready to Reach Your Full Potential and Accomplish Your Goals?
The guiding posts for treatment will be identifying your situation and challenges. One of my strengths is helping clients feel seen and understood so we will get to the root of it when you’re ready. If you are someone who looks in the rear view mirror of life there’s something powerful I want to share. While our past experiences have the power to shape us, they don’t have the power to define us. And that’s pretty powerful, right? Throughout my years of counseling I have helped clients achieve greater fulfillment while teaching tools and methods for growth and positive change.
