Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 5.6 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.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Houston, TX

Finding family therapists in Houston starts with knowing what kind of support your family needs. Family therapy can help with parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, communication breakdowns, and stress across generations. Licensed family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare therapists for family issues, look for bios that mention family systems, marriage and family therapy, parent-child relationships, or experience with counseling family problems.

Houston’s size can make the search feel wide, from the Heights and Montrose to Midtown, West Houston, and nearby suburbs. Some families prefer in-person sessions, while others choose virtual appointments to make scheduling across multiple people easier. Session structure can also vary. A family therapist may meet with the full family, smaller groups, parents, couples, or individual family members, depending on the goals of care. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for availability, approach, and whether they offer a phone consultation to discuss fit and structure.

Family counseling in Houston, TX can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find licensed family therapists who may accept a variety of insurance plans, are accepting new patients, and offer clear appointment options. You can compare profiles, check estimated costs, and book directly when you’re 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.
