01About Mark
Mark Williams is a licensed professional counselor practicing in Texas with nine years of clinical experience. He focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, and the effects of trauma. He meets clients where they are and aims to create straightforward, useful support during hard moments.
In sessions he uses practical strategies from cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thought patterns and replace them with actions that feel manageable.
Background and approach
He also brings EMDR work when trauma memories need a different approach, always pacing the work to each person’s comfort. Mark emphasizes a collaborative style. He treats the person in front of him as the expert on their life and helps them use their strengths to move forward.
Conversations are direct, calm, and focused on small steps that add up over time. He has helped people dealing with low self-esteem, panic attacks, obsessive thoughts, and adjustment after major life changes. He also supports those facing guilt, isolation, problems with attachment, and stress related to first responder or veteran experiences.
Sessions are offered in English and available through several online formats. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that fits the client’s needs.

04Online support
How CBT and EMDR work online
Mark uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and build smaller, practical behaviors that reduce anxiety and lift mood. Sessions include identifying patterns, trying small experiments, and practicing new ways of responding between meetings.He also offers Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, for people whose distress centers on painful memories. EMDR sessions focus on reducing the intensity of those memories so daily life feels less triggered and more manageable.
Choosing an approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the client about symptoms, goals, and what feels doable. Together they decide whether CBT, EMDR, or a mix of methods is the best path forward and adjust the plan over time.
Online therapy with Mark is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face work and real-time exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when clients prefer not to be on camera. Chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing support, or when a shorter touchpoint fits a busy day. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel commitments.
