Meet Micah Bolden, LCSW

Hi, I’m Micah, a licensed clinical social worker and the founder of Bold Steps Therapy. I am licensed to provide therapy in Texas and Colorado, but Dallas is home. I specialize in working with adults, teenagers (13+), and families. I collaborate with clients to help them reach their goals, manage anger and anxiety, change behaviors, and develop new ways of thinking.

Before starting my private practice, I spent years working in intensive outpatient, nonprofits, criminal justice, homeless services, and foster care and adoption. I’ve seen firsthand how life’s challenges can weigh people down—but I’ve also seen the strength it takes to push forward. That’s what therapy is about: not just surviving, but finding a way to thrive. I believe you deserve to live the best life you can.

At Bold Steps Therapy, my practice is culturally competent, gender and sexuality inclusive, and rooted in real accountability and progress. My approach combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Narrative Therapy, tailored to your unique goals. Whether you’re working through past trauma, improving relationships, or just trying to figure out your next steps, I’m here to support you. I believe therapy should be real, honest, and even a little funny sometimes. In our sessions, expect a mix of straightforward conversations, practical tools, and maybe even a few jokes.

Therapy isn’t about me having all the answers—it’s about helping you uncover the strength and clarity you already have. If you’re ready to do the work, let’s take bold steps forward—together.
