Therapists in Texas

Welcome — With 15 years of experience in veterans’ hospitals and private practice, I equip men facing anxiety, anger, ADHD, relationship conflict, sexual addiction, PTSD, C-PTSD, and the lasting effects of relational neglect or childhood trauma. I also work with first responders, military personnel, and those carrying moral injuries from the past that invade the present in reaction. I am a psychodynamic minded therapist, therapy sharpens two essential skills: • Situational awareness — reading your surroundings without leaking frustration or projecting onto other relationships. • Self-awareness — truly knowing yourself through the way you express your concerns contributes to the dilemma of daily life. At the veterans’ hospital, I’d offer water before we began. If someone rolled their eyes, I’d crack a joke. Over time, I grasped that behavior is a language we all speak—with no room for pretense—one we can refine for clarity and purpose. As a therapist I aim to be practical, focused, and grounded in hospitality. It equips you to move beyond labels and reactive patterns, work through intense feelings, and treat anxiety as the alarm system it is, enabling you to navigate challenges at your body’s pace outside of therapy—while honoring what you reflect about the stories, beliefs, memories, and life experiences that have shaped you thus far. When you’re ready, I’d be honored to work with you. Warmly, Bryan, LPC

Hello! My name is Sydney, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Texas. I am the assistant director at a children's behavioral health clinic. I also work at a non-profit hospice providing bereavement and grief recovery services to patients and families. I am always appreciative and humbled by the vulnerability people are willing to share with me to better process and explore issues they are wanting to work through. I use a client-centered approach to therapy, meaning that my clients are always the experts in their lives, and I am simply a facilitator and guide to help them navigate challenges, reach their goals and utmost potential. I work from a systemic lens of therapy by observing relationships in the context of relational, physical, mental, emotional and spiritual contexts. I look forward to getting to know you and work with you!

Hello! My name is Jon Richard, LPC. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who works in Austin, Texas. After graduating from the Masters of Arts in Counseling (MAC) program at St. Edward's University, I completed an internship at Capital Area Counseling (CAC) which is the most rewarding chapter of my adult life. At CAC, I discovered my therapeutic "voice" while counseling a diverse sample of the population (those who suffered from addiction, gender dysphoria, divorce, the harsh realities of youth and middle age). By "therapeutic voice" I mean that a person-centered approach was congruent with my easy-going personality. I felt more authentic with clients when we engaged in a loose, organic conversations (sometimes informed by cognitive behavioral therapy). Since that time, I have gravitated toward Solution Focused Brief Therapy (though I cannot market myself as an official SFBT therapist). I find SFBT to be particularly liberating because it leads with inspiring the client by asking them about their desired outcome. Once I learn what difference you would like to notice in yourself, my line of questions will focus on your previous experience with happiness/success. The more vividly you can describe your history with the desired outcome, the more possible it seems. The popular saying amongst SFBT experts like Elliott Connie, MA, LPC is "It's simple, but it's not easy". I cannot promise "easy", but I will say that the journey will be meaningful and invigorating.

Hello, I'm Aisha. Thank you for taking the time to allow me to be a part of your journey. I know making the decision to seek help may not have been easy, and I'm so happy that you reached out. You've made the first big step in creating a change in your life, and that's something to be proud about. I have worked with individuals and couples of all ages seeking counseling in the areas of anxiety, depression, school concerns, and relationship issues for over five years. My experience spans across schools, hospitals, and private practice settings. I also specialize in life transitions, military and veteran support, learning disorders, spirituality, stress management, adolescent and teen behavioral health, and intimate/romantic relationships. I feel it is a gift to offer light in those times of darkness. Compassion, patience, and understanding are only a few of my qualities. I am easy to talk with and aim to create a safe and non-judging environment. My counseling approach ranges from cognitive behavioral, client-centered, solution-focused, and motivational interviewing. However, I focus on the client and tailor what is necessary to help you accomplish your goals in therapy. Again, welcome to the first step in making a positive change in your life. I look forward to learning your story and supporting your journey. Stay encouraged! “You define your own life. Don’t let other people write your script.” — O.W.
