Top therapists in Houston, TX accepting new patients
Greetings. My name is Dennis Steelman. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor (LCDC). I carry two professional certifications in Mental Health Teletherapy (CTMH), and as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP). I hold a Master’s Degree in Professional Counseling and a Master’s Degree in Addictions Counseling. I obtained both graduate degrees from Liberty University.
My approach to therapy is mainly through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR). CBT is a highly effective modality of treatment that is aimed at correcting negative beliefs and identifying negative thoughts. This is of course an oversimplification of CBT but illustrates the crux of what CBT looks like. EMDR is a highly effective treatment for PTSD and other trauma-related illnesses. EMDR is a specialized form of treatment that has been proven to not only be effective for the treatment of trauma, but emerging research also suggests EMDR is highly effective in the treatment of a wide array of illnesses.
I believe that therapy should carry certain expectations, just like any other form of treatment. An individual coming into treatment should expect to see positive results. An individual coming into treatment should expect to see progress in their treatment through a collaborative effort between the therapist and the client.
I chose to specialize in the treatment of trauma and related negative life events because of the damage they can do to the individual. It is my experience that those who have endured harmful life events are often locked into a pattern of negative thinking, believing, and behavior. I look forward to working with those individuals looking to break free of those patterns.
Hi, my name is Krista. I am a youthful, Caribbean American with a passion for helping individuals achieve mental wellness and personal growth. I am a licensed therapist with a diverse background of experience in providing compassionate and effective therapy to clients. I am also open to integrating faith-based principles with evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help individuals navigate life's challenges.
I am a board-certified Nurse Practitioner and a psychotherapist, and in recent years, my practice has evolved to focus on the issues of females throughout the life cycle. I treat females ages 16-70 and male adolescents with anorexia nervosa.
Healing is possible, even if right now it feels out of reach. Trauma, addiction, and painful life experiences can leave you feeling disconnected from yourself, stuck in unhealthy patterns, or constantly carrying emotions that seem too heavy to manage alone. You may have learned how to survive, but you deserve the chance to truly heal. As a trauma and addiction certified therapist, I work with children, adolescents, and adults who are ready to move beyond simply getting through the day and begin building a life that feels more peaceful, connected, and fulfilling. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe enough to be yourself, understood without judgment, and supported every step of the way.
Hello, I’m Travis, and some days it’s hard to know where to start. Other days, it feels like there’s too much to say. Wherever you are, I’m here to listen. I provide a warm, supportive space where you can feel heard, understood, and gently guided as you work through life’s challenges and move toward greater peace and understanding.
Welcome! I am a health psychologist who is interested in helping people reach their maximum potential in their physical, mental, and spiritual health. I believe that counseling can promote self-efficacy, healing, peace, hope, and a sense of purpose. I believe that individuals are created wonderfully in body, mind, and spirit. In order to reach full potential of health, each domain must be addressed for whole body wellness. I practice with the intent of finding natural solutions to wellness.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who works with individuals struggling with substance use disorders, depression, anxiety, grief, relationship issues, identity exploration, and difficult life transitions. I also have experience working with adolescents and understand the unique emotional, relational, and developmental challenges that can come during those years.
I believe therapy works best when people feel genuinely safe, understood, and respected. My goal is to create a space where clients can show up honestly without fear of judgment. I know that starting therapy can feel uncomfortable or vulnerable, especially for people who are used to carrying things on their own, and I take seriously the trust it takes to open up to another person.
I am an LGBTQ-affirming clinician and believe deeply in creating a supportive and inclusive environment where clients can explore their experiences authentically. I approach therapy with compassion, curiosity, and respect for each person’s individual story and lived experience.
Much of my work centers around helping people who feel overwhelmed, disconnected, stuck, emotionally exhausted, or unsure how to move forward. Whether someone is navigating addiction, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship struggles, or major life stressors, I aim to help them feel less alone while working toward meaningful and lasting change.
Above all, I believe the therapeutic relationship itself is one of the most important parts of the healing process. Research consistently shows that a strong connection between therapist and client is one of the strongest predictors of success in therapy. Because of that, I place a high value on building a relationship grounded in trust, honesty, collaboration, and authenticity.
Life can be difficult. Counseling and guidance can help ease the process. Do you feel overwhelmed, stressed, Anxious, Depressed, or going through a major Life Transition?
Do you notice that you are constantly people-pleasing, not prioritizing yourself, and constantly feeling overwhelmed with work, family, relationships, or life?
