Arthur Tolbert

Arthur Tolbert

Therapist

Virtual • Modesto, CA


Hello, I'm Art, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who discovered a passion for helping others later in life. My approach is grounded in motivational interviewing and person-centered therapy, creating a supportive environment where trust, acceptance, and meaningful change can flourish.

As a combat veteran, I understand how difficult it can be to take the first step toward seeking help. I strive to provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your experiences, clarify your goals, and grow into the person you want to become.

I have worked with adults, couples, families, and adolescents across a variety of clinical settings, supporting individuals facing trauma, anxiety, depression, psychosis, and life transitions. I am a Certified EMDR Therapist and incorporate EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) along with the Flash Technique to help clients process difficult experiences while minimizing emotional overwhelm.

I also offer Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), an integrative treatment that can help deepen insight, promote healing, and support lasting change when traditional approaches alone may not be enough.

My goal is to walk alongside you with compassion, curiosity, and respect as you move toward greater healing, resilience, and self-discovery.
