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 Sugar Land

Finding the right therapist in Sugar Land starts with identifying what kind of support you're looking for. Whether you're seeking help with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, or another challenge, look for a licensed provider — such as an LPC, LCSW, psychologist, or psychiatrist — who specializes in that area. Reading a provider's bio can give you a sense of their approach and help you decide if they might be a good match before you book.

Sugar Land is home to a diverse community, and many therapists in the area offer culturally responsive care, bilingual sessions, and a range of therapy styles from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to EMDR. Both virtual and in-person sessions are widely available, so you can choose the format that fits your schedule and preferences.

Therapy in the Houston metro area can be expensive out of pocket, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to bring costs down. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit — making it easier to find a provider who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
