About Nolan
Nolan Garrett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 25 years of experience. He has worked in settings that include psychiatric hospitals, community mental health, and private practice. Nolan helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family conflicts, grief, anger, ADHD, and other life changes.
He earned a Master of Education from Southwest Texas State University, now Texas State University. Nolan has been involved with professional groups such as the American Counseling Association, the Texas Counseling Association, and CHADD. He also served as president of the Heart of Texas Counseling Association.
Nolan describes moments of life where problems pile up and become overwhelming. He talks with clients about symptoms like low mood, worry, impulsive behaviors, and the strain that relationship trouble can create. He also works with people facing grief, guilt, and destructive habits that interfere with daily life.
In sessions he uses practical, evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address problems and help people develop better coping skills. He emphasizes that therapy takes effort from both the person and the therapist. Conversations focus on clear goals and steps people can try between appointments.
He frames therapy as straightforward work rather than a quick fix. Nolan encourages people to look at patterns, try new ways of responding, and measure small changes over time. He invites those who are ready to take a first step to begin the process and schedule a session.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Nolan works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful patterns and building coping skills. One common approach involves identifying automatic thoughts and testing them against reality to reduce anxiety and reactivity; this can help with worry, irritability, and resentment. Another approach concentrates on behavioral skills and practice, such as learning calm-down routines and new ways to respond when anger rises, which helps people manage impulses and rebuild strained relationships.Choosing the right method is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try approaches, and adjust based on what helps most. This is a collaborative process where client feedback guides which techniques are used and how sessions are structured.
Please confirm current session options before booking, as the original biography does not list specific online formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow brief check-ins when a full in-person visit is difficult. It can also allow different ways of working such as phone or video depending on what the client prefers and what is offered at the time.
