Jonathan Collins, LPC
About me
I am licensed in Texas with 10 years of professional work experience. I am experienced working in a variety of settings, including college counseling, vocational counseling, community mental health, inpatient residential treatment centers, and psychiatric hospitalization. I have led both psychoeducational and process groups.
I provide individual, couples, and family therapy. I am passionate about working with college students, adolescence, adults, young professionals, grief and loss, LGBTQIA, process addictions, ADHD, anxiety, sexual issues, self-esteem, motivation, self-confidence, depression, OCD, trauma, parenting, work/life balance, and life transitions.
My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels. I have an eclectic counseling approach and use different therapeutic modalities depending on the needs of my client. My approach often combines cognitive-behavioral, dialectal behavioral, client-centered, and rational-emotive therapy.
I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

Johnathan has been nothing but great to me. He has helped me try so many techniques to help with my issues. He’s even helped guide me to thinking about what i want from my future. He has helped me greatly.

Jonathan Collins has been very helpful and our conversations are extremely easy going and productive. I am grateful to have found a good therapist after years of going to overwhelmed and overworked in-person therapist that just seem burnt out from their work. Working with him has been a refreshing and fulfilling experience.

Jonathan Collins is wonderful. His patience and insightful curiosity have brought a depth to our therapy sessions that has helped me identify underlying issues. I highly recommend him.

Jonathan has been my counselor for a few weeks and already has made it simple enough to get things on track. He was almost immediately available when I needed to engage someone and it allowed for a great interaction and weekly discussion where I felt that all my concerns were addressed. 10/10!

I just wanted to say that I cannot appreciate enough Jonathan’s attention to my well being on a Saturday night and we have not even had our first official session (I missed it due to my struggles with addiction). Yet he has shown care and attention towards me and probably had a hunch that Saturday nights are extremely difficult for me, and he engaged with me tonight and checked up on me. That means a lot to me and makes me feel heard, visible and acknowledged; and confident that our future work will be productive and meaningful. Thank you Jonathan and looking forward to working with you!
