Life rarely unravels all at once.
It builds slowly in the background until one day you notice you are carrying more than you can manage. You may feel tense, overstimulated, or easily drained. You might replay conversations, avoid conflict, or try to hold everything together while something inside feels off balance.
You may recognize moments like:
Shutting down or reacting quickly without meaning to
Carrying long-standing patterns from your family that still affect you
Trying to balance stress from work, home, and relationships without relief
Feeling anxious, numb, or disconnected from yourself
Wondering if things will always feel this way

Grounded Support That Helps You Feel Balanced
Duality Psychological Services is a team of licensed psychologists and mental health clinicians who offer therapy and psychological testing that is calm, clear, and personalized. We support adults who feel overwhelmed, stretched thin, or stuck in patterns that keep repeating.
Our work focuses on helping you understand what is happening beneath the surface so you can feel more balanced and capable in daily life.
Founded by Dr. Joel Frank, our practice is guided by the belief that meaningful change comes from clarity, honest conversation, and support that respects your pace. Each clinician brings a grounded, thoughtful approach to therapy and testing, adapting the work to your needs rather than asking you to fit into a rigid model.
