More about Brian
- 9 years' experience
- Male
- LPC
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with over 9 years of counseling experience and 20+ years of mental health experience. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, psychosis, attention, substance abuse, and trauma.
My counseling style is gentle and non-directive while assisting clients to develop their own paths to positive changes in their lives. I will not chastise or talk down to clients; however, I will challenge their irrational thoughts and inconsistencies, but in a non-confrontational manner that does not leave the client thinking he or she is attacked. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, client centered, humanistic, and rational-emotive therapy to facilitate self-awareness so the client is empowered to change. I believe treating a person is more important than treating a diagnosis which allows me to listen to the client’s subjective concerns.
The majority of people will work towards better emotional health, but often they do not know how to do that. If you are ready to begin a journey to feeling better about yourself and life, I am ready to guide and support you.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Overall rating:
Brian is great. Very relaxed and calming. Very easy to talk to.
Brian has been attentive and professional throughout each interaction
Brian listens completely, and then makes a considered judgment before speaking with you. He is a very relaxing person to be around and makes me feel completely at ease, which certainly helps in addressing problematic situations! I highly recommend Brian and his approach to helping clients!!!
Brian is a really chill and laid back guy. He is a great listener and will always make sure that he’s on the same page as you. I’ve enjoyed my sessions and I’m making progress!
Brian is very good at listening and repeating back what he hears to ensure understanding. He's also great at tackling difficult spots from various directions to help process those feelings.
He is very helpful and challenges me.
Brian is fantastic. He truly is a wonderful therapist. Personable and easy to talk to. Very thankful to have crossed paths.
Brian has been amazing. I was very skeptical of how my therapy experience was going to go after a previous bad experience; however Brian has been respectful, kind, on time, and helped me work through and dig into issues I didn’t know were there. I recommend him completely.
I really like how laid back Brian is in our sessions. I don’t feel like I’m talking to a counselor I feel like I’m just chatting with a friend. I didn’t realize how helpful it would be to just get some of these things off my chest and Brian has really helped with that.
Brian has been a constant asset to me and my effort in dealing with feelings of self doubt and helping me find my way back to myself. His calm, good humored sessions are of great benefit. I often find myself looking forward to our weekly conversations. How often can someone say they actually look forward to their counseling sessions?!? Brian has helped me see myself for who I am as an individual person, as well as the different personal roles I play in the lives of others around me.
Brian is great. Very relatable and gives detailed advice as well as a fresh way to look at things you might not have noticed otherwise. Highly recommend.
