Brian White

(MRC, LPC, CRC)

About Me

First and foremost, I believe in the power of positive psychology and in the ability of the human spirit to rise to the challenge presented. Research indicates that focusing on using one’s strengths has a more beneficial and longer lasting effect when facing life’s challenges.

I have education and training in psychology, sport psychology, physical fitness, coaching, rehabilitation (vocational) counseling and life. I am licensed by the State of Texas (72233) as a Licensed Professional Counselor and have obtained a national certification as a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (CRC) giving me the ability to work across the fields of mental health, sport psychology and vocational counseling. I have worked with individuals and families looking to improve their lives and careers, recover from addictions, rehab for acquired brain injury (ABI) and those just looking to improve performance. I am qualified to provide formal assessment tools to guide your life decisions and careers.

It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

Brian really does a great job listening and understanding the issues that I have. He also does a really good job relating to me and provides great tools that I can use to reassure myself that I am on the path for success. I would highly recommend him to anyone that is looking to make positive changes in their lives.

I highly recommend Brian White as a good listener, a competent professional, and a caring person. In our two months so far, he has offered me a balanced combination of a patient, listening ear, while also offering solid, practical info (from current psychology) and insight that gets me thinking more productively during the time between our sessions.

My time talking with Brian has really helped me to develop skills that reduce the anxiety I was feeling in the beginning.

Brian has helped me immensely in the 5 months since I joined BetterHelp. I feel completely comfortable with him and appreciate that he also feels comfortable sharing his honest thoughts with me. I have noticed a change in my attitude, confidence, and communication skills as a result of our sessions. I feel like he is constantly giving me the tools I need to improve my overall wellbeing and personal contentment.

Brian is a knowledgeable counselor who relies on real cbt techniques that require some light homework to make it stick, because nothing comes for free. Very honest, caring, and understanding, Brian makes traveling the shaky waters less scary and easier to process. Top marks!
