Therapists in The Woodlands, TX

While my therapeutic style calls upon several well established and effective counseling approaches, my main focus is on interpersonal relationships. My passion is to guide my clients on a journey to discover inner strengths and to develop positive patterns of interaction. I am a professional counselor and a marriage and family therapist that loves working with families. All aspects of family life and members of the family (individuals, couples, single parents, entire families, and blended families) are of interest to me. I know that what affects one person in the family affects all members of the family.

Hello! I’m Tony. I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist -Associate, I specialize in family relationships, and assist my clients to achieve personal effectiveness. I use methodologies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and Emotionally Focused Therapy to help couples, families, teens, & individuals work through their challenges. With over 30 years of experience, I’ve helped individuals reach their goals, and discover their purpose. As an educator and coach, I’ve enjoyed helping young people discover their strengths and potential. I’ve learned while coaching sports, that teamwork is essential.

If you're struggling, a skilled counselor can help. I'm a psychologist in the Woodlands whose main focus is on couples therapy for couples in trouble and child counseling for parents worried about their child. I also provide counseling if you're suffering from depression, post-partum depression, infertility or a pregnancy loss. If you're looking for a couples therapist, you've probably tried to improve your relationship without success. You're frustrated and discouraged. I use one of the most effective methods of marriage counseling called, Emotion Focused Couples Therapy (EFT). EFT can help resolve conflict and deepen your bond.

Whether uncertainty lies in your relationships, work life, or within your own self-identity, therapy provides clients with a safe and supportive environment to freely explore their own solutions. The world can often feel like a place not quite built for you to be yourself. My hope is clients will emerge from session with a sense of empowerment over their circumstances.

We all struggle with the ups and downs of life. My passion is working with children (ages 3 and older) and families to promote healthy and happy individuals and relationships. I hope to help my clients enhance their own individual strengths, better their relationships with others, and enjoy the most out of everyday interactions and experiences. Solution Focused and Attachment-Based therapy are the primary approaches I utilize in treating clients. As human beings, I believe we are wired to connect with others and that individual change and healing influences relational change and healing.

I have a profound commitment to helping individuals, couples, and families navigate the complexities of relationships and personal growth. I can help you find the healing amidst the challenging circumstances you or your loved one is currently living through. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Marine Corps Veteran, I bring a unique blend of discipline, empathy, and cultural sensitivity to my practice. My academic background in Pastoral Ministries, Sociology, and Family Therapy, combined with personal experiences as a husband and father, enrich my holistic approach. I offer a complimentary consultation, feel free to call.

Are you concerned that the relationship you and your partner dreamed of may be slipping away? Searching for reconnection? You may be fed up with arguments interfering with family time, feeling misunderstood or alone. It may be getting more difficult to remember a time when things didn’t feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for change. To work on creating new patterns in your communication. Most of all, you’re ready to establish peace and love in your relationship again.

I strive to create a comfortable and inviting environment so I can hear one's life story, goals, heartaches and tough life decisions. I have a deep understanding and love for all things LOVE. Love within a family system, love within a marriage, and love within one's self. Unfortunately love isn't always enough. I enjoy working with adolescents, college students, adults, couples/marriage counseling, parenting and family therapy. My interests include adolescents, marital and relationship problems, communication skills, anxiety and depressive disorders, life transitions, coping skills, emotional disturbance, peer relationships, self-harming, self-esteem building, and family conflicts.

If you are struggling with depression, infidelity, trauma or relationship difficulties, then I would like to help you with this. Perhaps you have started to lose hope in your future, feel disconnected from people or get no enjoyment out of life. Or maybe you are experiencing mood-swings, self-criticism or even a sense that your emotions have been turned off. You might feel that difficult experiences in childhood or those within an adult relationship have left you feeling traumatized and stuck. Or maybe you feel betrayed by a partner – through what they did or what they are not doing. It is possible to heal from these things.

I'm ready to offer a warm and accepting environment where you feel comfortable. My passion is to connect with others and genuinely "see" them for who they are and meet them where they are in life. If you are struggling with the relationships in your life, such as your spouse, parents, children, in-laws, siblings, or friendships, we can work together toward more safety, boundaries, reconnection or better communication in these relationships.

I specialize in helping couples to de-escalate cycles of arguing and to work together to strengthen their bond. I use a model of therapy called Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy. I have witnessed the effectiveness of this type of couples counseling over the past 10 years. It works!...Even when a couple is experiencing a high level of distress, as when they have talked about divorce or when infidelity occurred. EFT also works for couples who just want help making things better. I offer individual counseling for men to help address a variety of issues, including depression, anxiety, and relationship challenges.

I am most passionate about helping strengthen couples as the foundation for the family and helping adult clients flourish through Christ-centered couple's and mental health therapy to achieve their God-given purpose. Particularly important for couples therapy is understanding that your relationship is the client; and I am passionate about strengthening the client. I will listen carefully with compassion, allowing each individual a voice and I WILL NOT take sides. I'm on the side of your relationship and here to help each person take ownership of it, draw upon its inner resources and rediscover its goals and purpose.

I have a passion for working with couples, individuals and first responders through a systemic lens. By counseling from a systemic perspective, I can more easily identify what systems (work, school, home life, marriage, etc.) are negatively affecting you while also uncovering unhealthy, ingrained family patterns and beliefs that may keep you emotionally reactive, anxious, and attached. A lot of families and couples get nervous to come in because they are afraid of being judged or exposed, but it is actually more helpful so that I can properly observe, intervene, challenge and mediate in order to help you grow closer to one another.

Relationships are hard! You may not be sure when it started, but you no longer recognize the person sleeping next to you. It’s devastating to think that your marriage may be ending. Maybe you and your partner fight all the time. Or perhaps the two of you are drifting away and no longer feel compatible. On the outside, people think you have it all and you seem to juggle all of life’s demands effortlessly. But on the inside, you are falling apart. You’re exhausted trying to maintain this façade and wondering how much longer you can keep this up. You still have a flicker of hope and want to rekindle what you used to have.

Are you tired of having the same arguments over and over again? Do you feel like your relationship is okay, but you wish it were better? Do you feel like you make positive changes in your relationship only to fall back into the same old disappointing habits? Or maybe your spouse has been unfaithful and you're struggling to feel safe in a marriage that feels very unstable, and with a person you aren't sure you recognize anymore. You aren't alone. For the vast majority of us, being happily coupled does not come naturally - it is a skill we have to learn. Luckily, these skills are teachable and learnable.
