How we help
Counseling services we offer in Humble
We offer a wide range of counseling services at our Humble office. Here is a quick look at each one.
Most requested
Couples & marriage counseling in Humble
When you stop feeling like partners and start feeling like two people managing the same house, couples counseling gives you both a space to slow down, say what is actually happening, and decide what to build from here. No blame, no taking sides. The goal is for both of you to feel heard.
Family therapy in Humble
Family dynamics can get messy, and tension does not always resolve on its own. Family therapy helps everyone in the room communicate more clearly, understand each other better, and find a way forward together.
Individual therapy in Humble
Sometimes you just need a space that is entirely yours. Individual therapy gives you room to process what you are carrying, understand your patterns, and build tools that actually hold up in real life. We work with adults and older adolescents.
Teens, children & play therapy in Humble
Kids do not always have words for what they are feeling, and they should not need them. We work with children through child-centered play therapy, and offer teens a calm space built around their experience, not a checklist.

Private pay
Private pay, and what that means for your care
The Shift is a private-pay, out-of-network practice. We do not bill insurance directly.
That is a deliberate choice. When a therapist does not have to answer to an insurance company, your care is shaped by what you and your therapist decide is right for you. You get the clinician who is the actual best fit, sessions that are not cut short by a plan's arbitrary limits, and the kind of consistency that gives this work room to unfold.
If you are looking for in-network therapy, we are happy to point you toward someone who takes your plan.

Chess at The Shift Counseling and Wellness helped me through the loss of my father and, later, a difficult divorce. He listens, works with you, and makes the process simple. Highly recommend for men’s counseling, grief support, and divorce recovery.Evan K. on Google Read all reviews
