About Brian
Brian Kees is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with eight years of experience practicing in Texas. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, addiction, and life transitions. Brian also lists social anxiety and workplace issues among his focuses.
He uses straightforward conversations and practical skills to help people reduce overwhelming feelings and make choices that fit their lives. Sessions often involve identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing them with real situations, and building new ways of coping. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness techniques alongside other approaches to support change.
Brian supports clients dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, anger, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. He also helps people who struggle with loneliness, impulsivity, or questions about life purpose. For some, work centers on communication problems, codependency, or managing substance use.
He pays attention to how relationships and identity affect mental health, including work with LGBT concerns and men’s issues. Brian notes experience with personality-related patterns such as avoidant and antisocial traits, and with alternative sex culture topics like BDSM and kink.
Practical steps are central in sessions - setting small goals, practicing skills between meetings, and adjusting plans when needed. People interested in beginning are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.

CBT focuses on spotting and testing unhelpful thoughts and then trying different behaviors to see what changes. DBT teaches skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication in stressful moments.Finding the right approach is part of the first conversations. The therapist and client review goals, preferences, and how symptoms show up, then decide together which methods to try and how to adapt them over time.
