Our approach
Your life isn't one size fits all.
Your life isn't one size fits all.
Your therapy shouldn't be either.
We believe meaningful change begins with understanding the person, not just the problem. Our approach is collaborative, intentional, and grounded in building a strong therapeutic relationship.
We take time to understand what you're experiencing, help you make sense of your thoughts and emotional responses, and work toward goals that matter to you. And because insight alone doesn't always create change, we incorporate approaches that go beyond traditional talk therapy when appropriate.

Frequently asked questions
Questions, answered.
What if I don't know what I need help with?
That's okay. You don't have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. Part of our work together is understanding what you're experiencing and identifying what you'd like to change.
Therapy or coaching?
You want results. So do we.
Many of our clients first looked for a coach. Coaching can be great for strategy and accountability. Therapy does that too, and adds what coaching isn't designed to do: getting to the root of why you keep hitting the same wall.
| Feature | Coaching | Therapy at Poplar Belief |
|---|---|---|
| Goal-setting and action plans | Yes | Yes |
| Solution-focused sessions | Yes | Yes |
| Licensed and regulated by a state board | No | Yes, Texas-licensed LPC |
| Graduate-level clinical training | Varies | Required (master's degree + supervised hours) |
| Assesses and treats anxiety, depression, trauma | No | Yes |
| Works with the nervous system and root causes | Not the focus | Core of our work |
| Confidentiality protected by law | Not by law | Yes |
Goals give you direction. Healing is what makes them sustainable.
I'm not in crisis. Is therapy still for me?
Yes. Most of our clients aren't in crisis. They're just tired of carrying a lot. You don't need a "big" reason to start.
What does "trauma-informed" mean?
Trauma doesn't just affect memories. It can shape the beliefs you carry about yourself, other people, and the world. A trauma-informed approach considers the whole picture, helping you understand those patterns and build new beliefs that support healing, safety, and lasting change.
Do you take insurance?
We don't bill insurance directly. We can give you a monthly bill (called a superbill) to send in for out-of-network coverage.
Do you do virtual sessions?
Yes. Online sessions across Texas, or in person in Houston.
How often will we meet?
Most clients start with weekly sessions to build momentum and create meaningful progress. As your goals are met, we may transition to every other week or monthly sessions based on your needs and progress. We'll decide together what makes the most sense for you.
How long will I be in therapy?
There's no set timeline. Some clients come with one specific goal, while others choose longer-term support as they continue to grow. We'll regularly review your progress and adjust your treatment plan based on your needs, not an arbitrary timeline.
Is everything I share private?
Yes, with a few legal exceptions (like risk of serious harm). We'll go over it all in your first session.
Do you see kids and teens?
Yes, ages 5 and up. See Kids & Teens →
