About John Walker

John Walker, LPC, is a Licensed Professional Counselor who brings 10 years of experience to his work with adults navigating grief, substance use, anxiety, and depression. His focus on grief and loss is shaped by an experiential perspective - he was widowed in his late thirties, and the support he received during that time became a lasting motivation to help others facing similar pain.

After returning to graduate school in his early fifties to enter the counseling profession, John developed a practice centered on guiding clients through life transitions, bereavement, and the complicated emotions that can follow loss. He also provides counseling for substance abuse and its ripple effects on individuals and the people who care about them, drawing on Twelve Step principles and cognitive behavioral strategies to support meaningful change.

In addition, John works with anxiety and depression using a range of approaches tailored to each client. He offers therapy in English and is based in Texas.

Practical tools and supportive therapy - online

John Walker draws from approaches that balance empathy with actionable skills, which can translate well to online therapy. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive space where clients can talk through grief, stress, and life transitions at their own pace, with the therapist helping clarify feelings and goals without judgment.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) emphasizes noticing patterns between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. It can be especially helpful for anxiety, depression, and panic symptoms by identifying unhelpful loops and practicing new ways of responding. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds concrete coping tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and relationship effectiveness, which can be useful when feelings feel intense or overwhelming.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. John collaborates with clients to understand what they want from therapy, what has or has not helped in the past, and which strategies best match their needs and preferences.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. This range of options can make it easier to fit support into a busy schedule, keep momentum between sessions, and access consistent guidance from a licensed professional wherever the client is located in Texas.
