I am a family and marriage counselor licensed in Texas with over 17years of experience working as a psychotherapist and life coach. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.
My counseling style is empathetic and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I am able to provide help and support to both the Christian population as well as non-Christians equally without judgment. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, supportive and rational-emotive counseling depending on your unique and specific needs. I enjoy and have had success working with couples, both married and pre-marital, individuals, and families struggling with a wide range of issues.
Your first steps to getting the help you need and working to move forward with your life is a sign of courage that I respect and will work to build on.. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to getting to know you and helping you move forward!

Mike has been helping me for a number of years now and I honestly feel that his help was instrumental in my outlook on life changing for the better. The issues that brought me to Mike are ongoing however so I can earnestly say that it is mostly due to his help that has assisted me in changing my attitude towards life in general.

Michael feels both professional and comfortable speaking with - that combination of trust and guidance one needs in therapy. While he is also open occasionally about his own life, I find it useful for my own therapeutic needs. It took me two tries to find Michael so am glad stuck around BH and did!

Michael is an incredible therapist and human being. He is kind, compassionate, and authentic. He gave concise and effective advice that got to the root of several issues that I was having in my life.
I had been battling depression, anger, anxiety, and many other negative core beliefs over the past ten years. With Michael’s help, I was able set healthy boundaries, learned how to plan and implement effective goals, and learned how to improve my communication skills. He helped me rebuild confidence and self-worth. My life is now very stable and I feel prepared and capable of confronting any future challenges. The tools and advice that he shared with me are invaluable, and I will continue using and implementing them into my everyday life. Thank you, Michael, for your help and advice. I will be forever grateful. The experience of therapy and counseling will always be a happy memory for me.

Michael was a very helpful therapist. He was very friendly and nice to chat with. He provided some good insight to what I needed to work on, with helpful exercises which became my personal tools that I can use time and time again in my everyday life. I’m glad I tried out the BetterHelp app and found a good therapist to help me get through some of the tough times that I was going through. I hope to return to the app again in the future if or when I need to.

I really enjoyed my session with Michael! It was my first time speaking with a licensed therapist and he’s really experienced. He made it easy for me to really open up and was very patient and understanding. I would really recommend him to any of my friends

Michael is warm, compassionate, and honest. He has helped me tremendously as a fellow mental health professional in a relatively short period of time. I appreciate his knowledge and expertise, as well as his skill with modeling/strategizing how to set up healthy boundaries. Overall, Michael is a high-quality therapist!

A kind man that appears to be goal driven. By constantly asking me what I want the therapy to help me with specifically it requires me to shape my goals and aspirations. He then follows up with concise advice and is willing to listen to the wails of a frustrated and angry man.
That my friends is a Texas sized portion of help.

In the short time I spent with Michael he was very personable, I felt he asked good questions that allowed him to know me and what I am going through. I especially like that he is willing to include biblical experience and knowledge be a part of his counseling.

I just want to say thank you to my counselor for being respectful and empathetic, professional but also compassionate and most of all, offering spiritual Christian guidance to me at a time as this. There aren’t many Christian counselors out there who openly identify as such and do not compromise in their advice giving.
Simply put, if you’re looking for a counselor that can pray with you/ for you/ refer you to the Bible and encourage you in the things of The Lord, go with Michael Edwards !
