Hi, I’m a licensed professional counselor and the founder of Transformed Therapy in Houston, TX. Since 2008, I’ve been walking alongside individuals, and families as they navigate anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, spiritual concerns, and major life transitions. While I work with men and women, as well as children and teens, a large part of my work is focused on helping men who are facing internal battles—feeling stuck, burned out, disconnected, or unsure of how to lead well in their families, careers, and personal lives.

Whether you're carrying stress silently, dealing with anger or shame, questioning your purpose, or struggling to be the individual you want to be, I provide a place where you can be honest, real, and heard. My approach is practical, faith-centered, and grounded in personal accountability, growth, and grace.

Before launching Transformed Therapy, I served as Director at Memorial Christian Counseling Center and CEO at Integrative Mental Health Solutions, leading crisis response teams across Houston. I also spent 11 years in full-time ministry as a youth and outreach minister, which deeply shaped my commitment to soul care and spiritual restoration.

I hold a Master of Education in Counseling from the University of North Texas and a BA in Philosophy from UT Arlington. When I’m not in session, I’m spending time outdoors with my wife and our five kids—camping, fishing, gardening, or simply enjoying God's creation.

If you're ready to step into change—whether it’s for your mental health, your marriage, your faith, or your identity—I’d be honored to walk with you.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Friendswood

Searching for therapists in Friendswood starts with knowing what kind of support you want. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, work stress, or a major life change. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match your needs. A therapist’s profile can also show whether they use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, family therapy, or other methods that fit what you are looking for.

Friendswood is a smaller market, so local in-office therapist options may be more limited than in nearby larger areas. Virtual therapy can expand your search while keeping care with a therapist licensed in Texas. Some people prefer an in-office therapist near them, while others choose virtual sessions for schedule flexibility. Beyond specialty, compare appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you understand each therapist’s communication style, session structure, and experience.

Therapy in Friendswood can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and schedule directly with therapists who are accepting new clients. You can browse therapists in Friendswood, review profiles, and book when you are ready.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
