Couples Counseling Therapists in Waco, TX

Welcome! My name is Vincent Hochstatter and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Texas with over 10 years experience in the mental health field serving individuals, adolescents and families. I specialize in several issues in including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, stress, and life transitions, amongst others.

I view persons as made up of emotions, thoughts, relationships, biology, and our spiritual selves. Consequently, I first help you stabilize by making necessary changes in behavior. Medical or neurological contributions and possible nutritional deficiencies are examined. I address any distorted thinking that is contributing to your emotional pain. If systems in your life (family, work, school) are a factor, they are also addressed. Finally, we work with the larger questions of existence (spiritual issues, issues of purpose/ meaning), which are all vital to mental health. All areas are dealt with from a solid grounding in scientific literature and research.

Hi there, I'm Roman Coronado, are you feeling somewhat stuck in life? Thinking you are too hard on yourself, but also feeling tired of being burdened by the weight of feeling unhappy, unmotivated, or just excessively worrying. Are you struggling with your health, work, or relationship? I help individuals work through these challenges and help manage them whether it's anxiety, depression, or something else. I can understand that seeking therapy can seem scary, overwhelming, or even questionable, but you are making the right choice.

I have been a counselor for over 20 years. I have been a clinical director of psychiatric facilities, a college counselor, a private practitioner, and a clinical supervisor of counseling interns. I have a master's degree in education with a concentration in guidance and counseling and a doctoral degree in Ph.D. in psychology. I have experience counseling in areas such as women's issues, aging, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, and domestic violence. I work with teens and adults of all ages. Goals are personal, and I aim to help people reach their individualized goals. I believe all have strengths upon which they can build to achieve

My journey toward a counseling career began when my first-born entered kindergarten and we found that he needed help. As a result, we were introduced to many wonderful doctors, psychologists, and counselors who were there to help and guide us. Among these was a counselor with whom I developed a strong bond. I soon realized our bond was based on the trust we developed. It is a trusting relationship like this that directly impacts the outcome of counseling. To pursue counseling is a courageous move on your part. Congratulations! I am honored to work with you.
