John Moreno, LCSW — Therapist in Texas

Hi there, I'm John!

I help individuals navigate anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions like career changes and personal goal-setting. My approach combines positive psychology and motivational interviewing to empower you to overcome obstacles and take meaningful steps toward emotional well-being.

My focus

I have worked with all kinds of mental health diagnoses, but feel most comfortable treating clients with Anxiety, Depression, Adjustment Disorder, Grief, and some phobias.

My approach

I use positive psychology, motivational interviewing, and cognitive-behavioral techniques to help you reframe negative thought patterns, build resilience, and develop practical coping strategies. My goal is to create a supportive environment where you feel empowered to take actionable steps toward personal growth and lasting change.

My communication style

My communication style is relaxed and conversational. I want our sessions to feel like a natural dialogue, not an interview or checklist. I aim to create a space where conversations flow freely while gently guiding you toward key insights, helping you uncover obstacles and gain deeper understanding.

My journey to mental healthcare

I discovered my passion for therapy while working with clients who had experienced homelessness and struggled with depression. Even with limited contact, I saw the profound impact those conversations had on their lives. That experience showed me how much more meaningful progress could be made with consistent support.

My goals for you

I start by looking at where you are now and where you'd like to be in six months. From there, we break it down into small, achievable steps each week, focusing on steady progress. I believe lasting change comes from building sustainable habits, and consistency drives real growth.

Our first session

In our first session, you can expect information gathering so I can get a clear picture of what you're experiencing and determine the best path forward. Our conversation will be open and natural, not just a series of questions. My goal is for you to feel comfortable as we start this process together.
