More about Justin

  • 10 years' experience
  • Male
  • LPC

I am licensed in Texas with over 18 years of professional work experience.

I'm Transpersonally oriented, combining mindfulness and somatic awareness skills with Internal Family Systems, Interpersonal Neurobiology, Jungian, psychodynamic, existential and humanistic perspectives in working with:

-grief and trauma

-spiritual and psychedelic integration

-relationship concerns in family, work and romantic relationships including both mongomous and ENM open relationship structures

-stress, anxiety and depression

I work from a Harm Reduction perspective with clients with substance use concerns.

I'm kink aware, trauma informed, an LGBTQ Ally, and passionate about the practice of consent.

I work well with creatives, healers and leaders in a wide variety of fields, as well as everyday folks with an interest in understanding their body-mind connection and the interplay between their internal and external experiencing of the unique web of relationships surrounding them.

Together we work to facilitate your own holistic understanding of your nervous system, your meaning making, your emotions, your communication skills, your boundaries, and your habits and self care practices, so you can acknowledge and process how the past has influenced you, and identify how you might move towards the life for which you long.

With all my clients, I endeavor to create an open and safe environment, supporting you in finding your unique path towards healing and growth.

How might I be of service to you?

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
