About me

Licensed Professional Counselor (Texas Lic #: 79370) and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor (Texas Lic #: 14343)
I focus on treating Substance Use Disorders (Addictions) and Porn and Sex Addiction; and couples and relationships.

Woody’s heart is best summed up in this statement he wrote in 2017: “I believe everyone counts, everyone matters. I believe there are no “throw-away” persons, everyone is worth saving”. I entered treatment for my addiction in June of '91 and I have remained sober ever since. I found freedom from my shame. I found healing from my childhood abuse and trauma. I found hope and serenity - you can too. I take you as you are - just as those who helped me took me as I was. I don't judge you, I listen to you. I work with you to accomplish the goals you set. There is no need to live in shame anymore - you can find freedom and hope.
I don't take a cookie-cutter approach to therapy - I listen to you. In your sessions with me, you will set goals for what you want to accomplish and together, we will work towards them.
