Couples Counseling Therapists in Friendswood, TX
Part of my role as a therapist is to create a safe space where my clients can learn and practice how to do just that - engage in a relationship characterized by mutual empathy, respect, and influence.
My clients typically find themselves stuck in transition, wanting to get to know themselves more deeply and ready to explore what is coming next on their horizon. I enjoy working with people who may be seeking self-reflection and a brave space where they can reconnect with their personal story and 'spark' for guidance on their journey. I also offer play therapy for children ages 3-10. Play therapy sessions provide an opportunity for kiddos to engage in and practice self-regulation skills, creative problem-solving, improved self-esteem, as well as developing healthy coping habits.

Counselor sees a wide variety of individuals, including those seeking help with depression, anxiety, anger, PTSD, trauma, and adolescents and adults seeking relationship skill development.
My goal as a counselor is to first set a foundation of comfort, in a NON-FORMAL, environment. Second, build a professional bond becoming aware of clients' presenting issues and or challenges, then finding subjective tools that are client centered. Clients will quickly learn I'm here to support and encourage them in a less formal role than traditional counselors. I'm not a touchy- feely counselor but do approach my sessions with empathy. I have a very expansive history of highs and lows in life and learned myself that a little outside help can be life changing. - Proud US Veteran

I am generally the therapist that individuals and couples seek out after time and money has been wasted elsewhere.
I engage well with clients from varying ethnicities, and clients that might describe their experience as unique. I also have a number of celebrity clients, pastors and wives, business owners and couples who seek someone to be honest and direct. I don't believe in wasting time in session and "running the clock." Our experience will be intense, refreshing, and reflective. If you are seeking out a therapist that others can identify your change and development, then if schedule permits, perhaps we will have a spirit experience in session.

Hi! As a clinically-trained therapist, I want you to know that the struggles you face and the traumas you have experienced do not have to define you. You have the ability to create a new path for yourself, to live the life you really want to live. I would love to help you create that life. As a Christian counselor, I believe God created perfection and placed it all in the Garden of Eden. Unfortunately, sin entered the picture and people have been struggling with the effects of sin ever since. Sometimes that struggle is beyond our resources and understanding. We need to have someone help us through life's troubles.

Couples Counseling Therapists
Does couples counseling work?
Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.
When should a couple seek counseling?
Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.
How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?
The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.
How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?
The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
