The most common phrase I hear from clients is “not good enough.” Many of us come to believe that we are unworthy of acceptance, so we conceal aspects of our identities that others might view as unacceptable and present a fragmented version of ourselves to others. My task as a therapist is to create a safe environment in which you can be your whole self, without fear of judgment. I am committed not only to understanding and validating you, but also to helping you learn how to understand and validate yourself. I am a licensed psychologist providing virtual therapy to adult clients, and my specialties include men’s issues, LGBTQIA+ concerns, early childhood trauma, shame, anger, depression, anxiety, and occupational concerns.

Hey guys, I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas and a guy with lived experience overcoming and healing from mental health struggles. My expertise is in trauma focused therapy as I’ve found most mental health issues involve going through extremely difficult experiences and high levels of stress. My approach is to meet where you are, help you gain stability and hope in your current situation, and address any issues from the past so you can move forward and thrive in the life you truly want and deserve.

The majority of my experience so far in my career as a therapist has been in trauma, substance use recovery, eating disorder relapse prevention, body image and sex, partnerships and sexual concerns, as well as working with couples, families, and parenting issues. In this experience, especially working with eating disorders and substance use recovery, I have found that what seems to be missing with the recovery process is a sexual recovery component. I feel that who I am, my authenticity, my message, and showing my humanness sets me apart from many therapists trained to be a blank slate for their clients. The work we do in session does not end there and it is not confined to the hour that I actually see them each week.

When you step into my office you will be warmly greeted in a judgement-free setting. The therapeutic process starts with a thorough assessment to really get to know who you are and where you are at, because the issues you have don’t define who you are as a person. We will work together to identify the problem areas and employ the therapeutic process to foster growth. I believe the therapeutic process needs to be direct, honest, and specifically tailored to the nuances of you and your situation. Certification in Sex Therapy and in Consensual Non-Monogamy through Sexual Health Alliance is in progress. My personal brand of therapy allows you to separate you from your issues and rewrite the story of your life to reflect who you truly are.

My approach to therapy has its foundation in strengths-based interventions that create emotional safety and facilitate insight and transformation. I draw from a variety of orientations, including client-centered, solution-focused, cognitive-behavioral, dialectical behavioral, positive psychology, mindfulness, and body-based therapies, such as Trauma Sensitive Yoga. I take an ecological approach to therapy, considering each person’s unique history, experiences, and communities.

Are you struggling with life and want to gain back some control? Have life’s challenges gotten overwhelming for you? Are you ready for change, but don’t yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality? Many men often feel overwhelmed and anxious about what they’re feeling and how to make the changes necessary to live a rich, full, and meaningful life.
Utilizing evidence-based treatment modalities like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I believe that change can happen and that the past doesn’t equal the future. You can begin to change your life by focusing on what’s in front of you. Let’s start making that change today!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with experience working in inpatient and outpatient settings with adults and teens. In my outpatient practice, I focus on transitions we experience at all life stages, grief/loss, relationship issues, stress, anxiety, depression and related problems. My approach is client-centered and forefronts your unique experience, making our work very collaborative. My role is to be an objective, accepting and reflective person that welcomes you to really examine all aspects of yourself and your existence in the world. I provide a safe space to increase your openness to life experiences, and confront barriers to develop insight-driven movement.

I specialize in helping men manage anxiety, infidelity, couple’s issues, trauma, and PTSD. I mainly use Solution-Focused Therapy as an approach, a model that focuses on strengths, resilience, and achieving goals. I am also EMDR trained. EMDR or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is an effective therapy for healing trauma, stress, and negative patterns. Using guided eye movements, it helps the brain reprocess distressing memories, reducing their emotional impact. I also sub-specialize in those in the first responder profession.

Kennedy Sabelko
Kennedy Sabelko
Kennedy Sabelko is a master’s-level Clinical Therapist and Doctoral Candidate in Health Psychology/Behavioral Medicine with 20+ years of experience in the field. Kennedy’s compassion for helping individuals improve their quality of life derives from his own personal and cultural experiences. Kennedy’s focus is allowing individuals to recognize irrational or negative thoughts/beliefs (Cognitive Distortions), and how they impact emotions such as anxiety or depression, which subsequently manifest into maladaptive behaviors. Kennedy provides coping strategies to decrease and manage negative thinking patterns through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)-Cognitive Restructuring, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) which teaches Emotional Regulation and Interpersonal Effectiveness skills.

The majority of my research and practice has centered around issues with masculinity, and I am especially passionate about providing services to men of color. I understand being in therapy can be difficult – it’s you being vulnerable, meeting a new person, breaking cultural and societal barriers, and getting to know parts of yourself that you’d maybe intentionally turned away from. My goal as a psychologist is to connect with, walk beside, and consistently challenge you in the goals you have set for yourself… and to help you identify a place to start when the goal may not be clear yet.

My professional experience includes being an embedded psychologist in a U.S. Special Ops squadron on Europe and Power 5 Conference NCAA university athletic departments. I have learned that most men benefit from cognitive processing and cognitive-behavioural approaches, with a touch of humanism. I have experience working with men who are confronting relationship issues, post-traumatic stress, anxiety, and depression.

“The world is changing at a rate faster than our ability to adapt to that change.” – Astro Teller
If this is true, no wonder you’re frustrated, exhausted, getting stuck in numbing and escaping behaviors, and wondering if this is all there is to modern life. The demands of life (relationships, marriage, parenting, career, personal health, mental health) are more than you can handle and you often are just trying to make it to the end of the day.
I specialize in working with men and helping them get relief from everyday demands, so they can go deep in their most important relationships.
