We know these are trying times, and Wilson Counseling wants to support you. Here are some of our free and low-cost resources. These services make counseling convenient for people who may have trouble getting to our office, those who want to avoid the commute, are concerned about health issues, or may have trouble getting childcare, or if you just feel more comfortable in your own home. We have found that many people actually feel it's easier to open up when they are home in a familiar space.

Why is waiting so hard? In part, because we are made aware that we are not in complete control of our own lives. You have to let go of some things before you will ever feel comfortable with waiting. You have to let go of some control of the future and learn to live more in the here and now. This is a discipline that you practice moment by moment. It's not easy, but it will free you up from so much anxiety. Our Houston Anxiety therapists can help you decrease your stress and get your mind back on track. Call us today at 713-565-0922.

Don't let drive time, physical or medical conditions, concerns about privacy, anxiety about coming into the office, or anything else keep you from reaching your goals, making changes in your life, and starting to feel better.

If you are tuned into the news, you are hearing about the coronavirus, repeatedly. And you may be starting to feel anxious about possible outbreaks. Your fear is understandable, but it may not be helpful. As with everything, you actually have a lot of control over how you feel. You just need the right tools to keep your anxiety in check.

If you are in a long term partnership or marriage, you already know how easy it can be to take each other for granted. We lead busy lives, and sometimes it feels hard enough getting everything done, let alone making time for our partners.
