About Steven
He works from a cognitive behavior framework and brings in other counseling methods as needed. That means sessions often include checking thought patterns, testing new behaviors, and trying brief experiments between meetings. He also uses mindfulness and narrative ideas to help people notice difficult moments and rewrite harmful self-stories.
Steven earned a Master of Arts in Counseling from East Texas Baptist University. He has three years of clinical experience and has worked in case management, outpatient, inpatient, and clinical settings. That work exposed him to a wide range of concerns including depression, trauma, mood disorders, addiction, and grief.
He has supported people across many cultures and ages, from children to older adults, and his past roles included case work in Dallas. He is licensed as an LPC in Texas. Sessions are conducted in English.
In sessions he aims to balance practical tools with compassionate listening. People can expect a direct but warm approach that emphasizes what they want to change and small steps to get there. The focus is on making daily life easier, not on jargon or lengthy theory.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Steven frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes. CBT is practical and often focuses on brief, doable tasks that can be worked on between sessions.He also draws on Mindfulness Therapy to teach attention practices that reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation. Mindfulness exercises are easy to practice in everyday moments and can be guided during sessions. Narrative Therapy is used to look at personal stories and shift limiting self-narratives, which helps people change how they make sense of their struggles.
Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the process. Steven works collaboratively to decide which approaches fit a person’s goals and preferences, and he adjusts methods as progress is made. Clients help set priorities and try different tools to see what works.
Session formats are not specified in his biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, shorten check-ins when needed, and practice skills between sessions. Licensed professionals often use these formats to help therapy feel more accessible while focusing on concrete changes that matter in daily life.
