Existential Therapists in Live Oak, TX

I have been a practicing psychotherapist for more than thirty years and work with couples, families, and individuals 18 years old and up. My areas of specialty are addiction, alcohol use, anxiety, anger management, behavioral issues, and many more. I use various modalities: Acceptance and Commitment (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Existential, Exposure Response Prevention, Schema Therapy, Interpersonal, Marital, and Family Therapy. At times this can appear to be difficult, but it is much more difficult to avoid our problems.

Early morning, evening, and Saturday appointments available. Your family and even many therapists don't understand you and are not open. Anxiety, relationship issues, numbness, and negative self-image can be signs of trauma. The life transitions you are going through feel harder than you think they should. You feel like you are carrying a heavy load that no one else can see and are disillusioned. Perhaps you had spiritual experiences or dreams you cannot make sense of. You don't know what to believe anymore. But you've had enough of this. You want hope and meaning in your life. I get you. Let me help you move from pain to purpose!

Meaning in life can be hard to find when we are struggling to just get through each day, and therapy can help. If you feel empty, overwhelmed or lost, please reach out because you don't have to go through this without support. Let's normalize getting therapy! While I work with many issues, I specialize in mood disorders, adult 'giftedness' /GT issues, polyamory and relationship problems of all types. If you have felt othered or marginalized before, I want to assure you I offer affirming care and operate from an intersectional, inclusive point of view. Currently accepting new clients for virtual therapy only.

Are you a weary weirdo? Are you a high-achieving adult or teen who struggles with relationships, self-esteem, or burnout? Are you someone who is seeking answers to difficult questions? Do you appreciate a warm and friendly but direct approach when handling challenges? If so, I may be the counselor for you. I take a person-centered and existential approach to counseling - aspiring to help clients find meaning and direction in their lives and relationships. With 15 years of experience in career development and higher education, I have significant expertise in assisting adolescents and adults with college and career decision-making.

It's hard to get up in the mornings. Life is heavy right now because work is stressful, you're struggling in your relationships, it's hard to get a good night's sleep, and/or you never seem to have time to focus on yourself. You may also be struggling with grief from the loss of a loved one, low self-esteem, or feeling disconnected from the world.

Hello there! Welcome to Insight Counseling. You may call me Paul. Do you find it difficult to connect with or find a therapist that places you first? I place a huge emphasis on listening to you while using a person-centered approach. I empower you to be able to identify what it is that is troubling you in a complex world of thoughts and emotions. We'll use a holistic model to integrate mind, body, and spirit. I encourage you to discover the skills or strategies that help you to be the best you can be. I help people learn to identify the root of their issue(s). This not only addresses the symptoms but improves healing at the core.

As an existential therapist, I believe you hold the answers within you no matter what obstacles you are trying to overcome. Through a collaborative effort, I tailor our sessions around your needs and goals. Enhancing well-being through an increased sense of resiliency, optimism, and personal control, in leu of the struggles you are experiencing. I believe in supporting and challenging you in your journey of self-exploration as you discover your authentic path in life.

I am best suited to adults and teens who are struggling with stress, work and family issues, personal challenges and past trauma resolution. My approach to counseling includes creative methods to keep my clients engaged, goal setting and strength based techniques that empower the individual. Clients who really want to see results and are prepared to partner with their therapist will definitely see overall change as we work together to address their concerns.

I specialize in working with codependent women and men. Codependency is not always related to addiction, it is often referred to as a self-love deficit disorder because most codependent clients have a difficult time identifying and focusing on their own needs. They often spend a lifetime being people-pleasers, but eventually feel anger and resentment for neglecting themselves and not receiving the appreciation/love they desire from others. Breaking free from codependency requires individuals to step away from their denial, to honor themselves, and to set boundaries. Then they can love and nurture others in a healthy manner.

I believe in genuine collaboration and helping someone live and feel authentic in their life. I can work with individuals across the lifespan who are struggling to find themselves and feel lost in their life. I enjoy providing care for those who are struggling with depression, anxiety, and/or unprocessed trauma. My focus in clients are teens, young adults, adults, and LGBTQ+.

Together, we will develop plans for things that can change and skills to cope with things that cannot. I hope to be your partner in discovering meaning in daily life and personal answers to life's existential uncertainties. I believe the most important ingredient in therapy is a relationship based on respect, authenticity, empathy, and humor. I value every person's unique identity and experiences, and I aim to customize your therapy experience, accordingly. :)

Are you feeling under pressure, overwhelmed, and as though you are not enough? By utilizing the humanistic, existential, and solution-focused approaches, I can help you feel less pressured and overwhelmed by viewing you as a whole person, encouraging you to remain true to yourself (humanistic), helping you increase your self-awareness, accept responsibility, and know that you are enough so you can live a more authentic life (existential) while focusing on finding solutions for issues in the here and now (solution-focused). Whether you are an adult seeking assistance for yourself or family, or a child/adolescent, I am here to help.

Wholeness. Consciousness. Self-Compassion. Creativity. Clarity. Courage. These describe healing experiences possible through the counseling journey. By collecting your stories, hopes, concerns and visions, I will tailor therapy to fit your needs. It is an honor to walk with fellow strugglers striving for peace and transformation. I have worked in the field of psychology for thirty years. I am a Psychotherapist, Supervisor to LPC-Associates, Certified Conscious Parenting Coach and have worked as a Chaplain and Counselor for hospice patients and their families. I am laser focused, using suffering to cultivate more in your life.

Most of us, at one time or another, experience personal problems. Sometimes they affect one's overall performance, sometimes they don't. I am available for those times when situations in life cause personal problems and you need help to get you through them. You don't have to do it alone. I strive to provide a comfortable and trusting environment where you can relax and feel safe. I aim to make therapy a place where you like to go. I know that we are all very unique. I approach each client in a way that is specific to their needs. I am also accepting licensed interns needing supervision.

As a society, we have grown distant from each other, alone in many phases of life. We experience life situations alone and repeat problematic patterns not knowing how to change or cope. As a psychotherapist I am spiritually based and believe the family is the foundation which supports the healthy development of it's member's. As a clinician I seek to develop therapeutic relationships which prepare the person for change which positively impact their life. For over 20 years I have worked with families, couples, individuals and children in a wide variety of psychological, emotional, behavioral and cognitive challenges.
