Hi, I’m Stephen. I work with people who feel overwhelmed, pulled in too many directions, or stuck in cycles of anxiety and depression. Many of my clients are juggling work, relationships, and health while struggling to be kind to themselves. Therapy with me is a space to slow down, regain balance, and reconnect with what matters most.

I believe you deserve support that meets you with compassion and respect. Seeking therapy can feel intimidating, but it’s also a powerful step toward healing and growth. My goal is to help you feel supported as you work through the habits, patterns, and stressors that have been holding you back.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • San Antonio, TX


Hi, there! My name is Dr. Justin Lockhart, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision.

I believe deeply in people’s capacity to grow and change, even when life feels overwhelming. If you’re struggling to manage big feelings, having trouble connecting with the people around you, or just feel like anxiety has you trapped on the business end of a bulldozer, I’m here to help you figure it out.

I work with teens and adults who want to build the tools to overcome anxiety, depression, trauma, mood swings, and relationship problems. Our thoughts, feelings, and experiences are important passengers, but they don’t have to drive the car. Instead, we can learn to find purpose, belonging, and peace even in the toughest of times.

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 Waco

Finding the right therapist in Waco starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Consider whether you want help with a specific concern like anxiety, depression, or relationship issues, or whether you're looking for general mental health care. Licensed providers in Texas include LPCs, LCSWs, LMFTs, and psychologists, and each brings a different training background. If you're interested in medication management, a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner may be the right fit.

Waco has a range of mental health providers, but availability and insurance acceptance can vary. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their approach, specialties, and whether they're likely to be a good match. Some providers also offer a free phone consultation, which gives you a chance to ask questions before committing to a session.

Therapy in Waco can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance information to see estimated session costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
