Book a therapist or psychiatrist in New Braunfels, TX covered by United Healthcare

I’m Dr. Joey Achacoso, PhD, LPC-S, CIT—a developmental psychologist, Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor, Certified IMAGO Therapist, child-centered play therapist, and parent coach. For more than two decades, I have helped children, teens, adults, couples, parents, and families navigate difficult moments and find their way back to greater understanding, confidence, and connection. Long before becoming a therapist, I was drawn to roles centered on listening, teaching, and helping others—including serving as a youth minister and volunteer Big Buddy. Those experiences still shape the warmth, curiosity, and respect I bring to therapy today. I do not reduce people to symptoms or treat their strengths as problems. Instead, we explore the needs and patterns beneath the struggle and develop practical new ways of responding. My treatment areas include anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, relationship conflict, parenting challenges, intense childhood behavior, emotional regulation, and family disconnection. My work draws from relational, developmental, family-systems, IMAGO, cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, and play-therapy approaches.
