Brian Adams, LPC

Brian Adams is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 11 years of counseling experience. He works from Texas and focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, low self-esteem, bipolar challenges, ADHD, and life changes.

He takes a gentle, respectful approach in sessions. He listens first and helps people find their own direction. He will point out unhelpful thought patterns and inconsistencies, but does so without lecturing or shaming.

Brian uses practical Cognitive Behavioral Therapy methods alongside client-centered ideas. That means he helps people notice how thoughts affect feelings and behaviors, and then practices steps to change those patterns. He also emphasizes the person's values and lived experience when planning next steps.

People often come to him when everyday coping feels harder after loss, big transitions, or disasters. He draws on years in mental health to offer steady support and clear, step-by-step suggestions for coping and problem solving.

Sessions are paced to the person's needs. Brian aims to help someone build small, achievable changes that add up over time. He invites honest conversation and focuses on realistic strategies people can use between meetings.

How his approaches work online

Brian often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice how thoughts affect feelings and actions, then practices specific steps to change those patterns. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and coping with life changes. Client-Centered Therapy is also part of his work, which means sessions focus on the person's perspective and goals and the therapist follows their lead while offering support and empathy.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. He will listen to the person's concerns, try different techniques, and adjust plans based on what helps most. Together they set goals and try practical exercises between sessions to see what works.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low, live chat can work for quick check-ins, and messaging supports short reflections or ongoing contact between meetings. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule and to continue therapy when travel or relocation occurs.
