About John
John Crusius is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who brings 12 years of clinical and coaching experience to his work.
Background and approach
He combines a client-centered stance with evidence-informed methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma, and ADHD, while also working with issues like grief, relationship challenges, and career transitions. His practice emphasizes listening carefully and shaping treatment around each person's goals and circumstances.
John often supports clients facing major life changes or searching for greater meaning after events such as loss, separation, or job transitions. He integrates approaches including cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused strategies to tailor practical tools and insights to the individual.
Having shifted careers later in life to follow a calling toward counseling, he draws on both life experience and clinical training to create a compassionate, goal-oriented therapeutic environment. John encourages curiosity, deliberate practice, and collaboration so clients can build skills for coping, improve relationships, and pursue clearer direction in their lives.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Access
Client-centered therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental stance that helps clients explore their values and goals while the therapist mirrors understanding and supports autonomy. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, ADHD-related difficulties, and addiction concerns. Motivational interviewing is a collaborative style that helps people clarify their willingness to change and build internal motivation for steps like reducing substance use or improving routines.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process; the therapist works together with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process often combines elements from different approaches so treatment can be adjusted over time as goals evolve.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and accessibility. These formats make it easier to attend sessions around work, family, or other commitments and allow continuity of care for clients who travel or live outside the therapist's immediate area.
