Houston Adult Counseling

Adults may struggle with mental illness or social and behavioral disorders that impair their functioning, cause significant distress, and take away their ability to experience joy and meaning in life. In fact, the National Institute of Mental Health reports that nearly one in five US adults live with a mental illness (52.9 million in 2020).

These struggles may come about due to an inherited susceptibility to mental illness, adverse childhood experiences (alcoholic parent, divorced parents, sexual abuse, abandonment, etc.), a traumatic event (car accident, assault, natural disaster, witness to violence, etc.), or life stressor (bankruptcy, chronic illness, work stress, divorce, death of a loved one, etc.).

Psychotherapy, also known as talk therapy, can help. Treatment starts with the development of a trusting relationship between client and therapist to promote a nonjudgmental, safe environment for the exploration of emotions, traumas and hurts, goals, and new perspectives.

The therapists at The Resilience Center of Houston are licensed in Texas and offer a broad range of evidence-based approaches and techniques to support client healing and transformation.
