About Curtis

Curtis Williams is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, anger, and relationship struggles. He speaks plainly and offers a warm, interactive style to make talking about hard things easier. He encourages practical steps alongside deeper reflection so clients can start feeling better sooner.

He has five years of counseling experience in a range of settings. That includes work in an outpatient substance abuse clinic, inpatient hospitals, and a private practice. Those roles exposed him to depression, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, career concerns, grief, and intimacy-related issues.

Curtis uses a mix of approaches tailored to each person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thought patterns and change behaviors. Solution-focused work keeps sessions goal-oriented and practical. He also draws on family systems ideas when family history shapes current problems.

Clients can expect conversations that balance empathy with action. Curtis aims to co-create a treatment plan that fits an individual's life and priorities. He also integrates methods like Motivational Interviewing and Narrative Therapy when they help move a client forward.

He values the courage it takes to seek help and focuses on empowering clients to reclaim control. If someone is ready to look at anger, substance use, relationship stress, or life transitions, Curtis offers steady guidance and clear steps to make progress.

How Curtis' Approaches Translate to Online Work

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through clear exercises and small homework tasks. It is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and many stress-related concerns.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a method aimed at easing distress tied to traumatic memories by processing them in structured phases with the therapist guiding the steps. It often helps people who struggle with trauma and abuse-related symptoms.

The right approach is explored together. Curtis will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. He aims to match methods to a person's needs and adjust the plan as progress is made.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Online therapy can make scheduling easier and help fit sessions into a busy life, such as quicker check-ins during a lunch break or joining from another convenient location. It can also allow continued work when travel or relocation makes in-person visits difficult. Discuss practical preferences during the initial match so sessions are set up to work well for daily routines.
