Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 23 mi away • Houston, TX


As an LPC with over 21 years of experience I am passionate about working with individuals, families, and adolescents navigate life's inevitable challenges. Navigating those changes creates anxiety, depression, and feeling overwhelmed. We know change is constant and understanding all aspects of ourselves - emotionally, mentally, and physically - is of the utmost importance. It allows us to have a better relationship with ourselves; therefore, deeper and healthier relationships with others.

Providing individual, group, and family therapy across various settings has enabled me to understand the importance of developing healthy communication that will benefit long-term relationship skills.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 24 mi away • Houston, TX


Who am I? What do I want? And how do I move forward from here? These are the questions that bring many people to therapy—and the questions I’m passionate about exploring. I’m Ron Saenz, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Houston. My work is rooted in the belief that healing happens through both insight and embodied experience. I draw from neuroscience, somatic awareness, and the wisdom of practices like meditation, yoga, martial arts, and flow states to help clients reconnect with themselves in deeper, more meaningful ways.
