About Steven
Steven Gaddis is a licensed counselor with LPC and LPCC credentials and 20 years of experience. He helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, low self esteem, anxiety, mood changes, or challenges with relationships and parenting. He also works with those facing addiction, grief, trauma, and workplace strain. The tone is direct and practical, aimed at people who want concrete steps forward.
He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a primary approach, pairing that with motivational interviewing and solution-focused strategies when helpful. Sessions center on building trust and a straightforward plan that fits each person's life. Steven emphasizes practical tools for managing emotions, reducing unhelpful thinking patterns, and improving communication.
Steven adapts methods to the person rather than following a rigid protocol. He looks for strengths to build on and keeps interventions focused on clear, achievable goals. This can include short-term skill work or longer conversations about patterns that keep coming up.
He typically reviews messages at least twice daily, once in the morning and once in the evening, to stay connected between sessions. Steven’s practice is based in Texas and he holds licenses in both Texas and California as LPC and LPCC respectively.
People who choose him can expect a practical, respectful approach that balances real-life problem solving with attention to emotional healing. He invites prospective clients to begin with a short matching questionnaire to see if his style fits their needs.
