Garland Willis is a Texas-licensed professional counselor who has been licensed since 2018 and brings five years of clinical experience to his practice.
Before entering counseling, he retired from a career as a school principal where he worked closely with many adolescents and their families. He also has experience as a business owner and as a member of the military.
He works with clients from all racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic backgrounds. His caseload includes people ranging from adolescents to retired adults who seek help for overwhelming stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, family conflicts, parenting concerns, self-esteem struggles, addictions, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, eating disorders, anger management, career problems, depression, and coping with life changes. Many of his clients have lived through emotional trauma related to sexual assault, physical and emotional abuse, and neglect.
Willis offers a conversational, casual counseling style grounded in respect, empathy, and compassion. His therapeutic approach blends cognitive-behavioral techniques with choice theory and rational-emotive methods. He collaborates with clients to develop and follow individualized treatment plans that support clearer decision-making and greater personal empowerment.
He welcomes clients who are ready to take steps toward the life they want and looks forward to supporting that work.
Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, or adjusting to life changes, remote counseling has been found to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person therapy for most situations.
One of the main benefits is convenience - you can connect with a therapist in the format that best fits your life, whether that is a video session, a phone call, a live chat, or messaging inside an app. This flexibility often makes it easier to keep appointments and maintain momentum in treatment.
All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and if your needs change you may switch to a different therapist at any time to find a better fit. Online therapy can be a practical, adaptable option for many people seeking support.
