"The joys and the hopes, the griefs and the anxieties of the men of this age, especially those who are poor or in any way afflicted, these are the joys and hopes, the griefs and anxieties of the followers of Christ. "

Greetings.  Welcome to my simple website- Houston Catholic Counseling and Psychotherapy.

My name is Nick Lopez Jr. MA LPC.  Since 1996, I have been a Catholic counselor who has provided counseling services  to Catholic individuals and marriages in Houston, Texas.  My approach incorporates leading research supported counseling techniques with the timeless wisdom of Aristotle, Saints Thomas Aquinas, Augustine, Ignatius, as well as the Teachings of the Roman Catholic Church.  I completed  Level II  of the Gottman Marital training program and have had the privilege of being trained by Dr. John Gottman.  I am also an EMDR Trained therapist.

 Frustrated with the negative experiences that fellow Catholics have had with some secular psychologists and counselors, I started a private practice for Roman Catholic individuals and marriages. Whether you are an individual trying to cope with a significant personal struggle or in a marriage that seems to have lost its hope and joy, I assure you that my individual and marriage counseling approach is totally faithful to the Magisterium of the Catholic Church and I will do my best to help you. That said, I am open to clients of all faith and spiritual journeys!


Thank you for visiting.

God Bless.
