About Brent

Brent Theis is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people struggling with anger and related concerns. He supports individuals dealing with relationship stress, anxiety, depression, parenting strain, trauma, and life changes. Brent emphasizes practical steps people can use right away to feel less stuck and more connected.

Brent brings 23 years of experience to his work. He aims to make sessions feel like a Safe Haven where people can talk through painful patterns and test new ways of relating. He listens for how past attachment experiences shape current behavior and helps clients notice how thoughts and feelings keep problems going.

His approach mixes methods that target emotions, relationships, and thinking habits. Clients may work on understanding how attachment affects intimacy, learning skills to manage strong feelings, and processing traumatic events when they get in the way of daily life. Sessions focus on concrete changes and clearer communication.

Brent also addresses issues such as control struggles, fatherhood concerns, infidelity, and forgiveness. He helps people rebuild trust, set boundaries, and find a clearer sense of life purpose after separation or loss. The tone is direct but compassionate.

People interested in beginning work complete a short match questionnaire and schedule sessions based on availability. Brent works in English and welcomes international clients who want to connect from afar.

How attachment and emotion work translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds influence adult relationships. It helps people see why they react strongly and learn new ways to connect with others. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and provides practical tools to change unhelpful patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on the experience of emotion in relationships and helps people express needs clearly and repair disconnection.

Choosing the best approach is part of the work. Brent will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That conversation can include trying different techniques and adjusting based on what helps most.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because formats are not listed in the biography. Many people find online sessions useful for fitting therapy into a busy day, doing shorter check-ins during work breaks, or avoiding travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep continuity while managing life demands, and the therapist will help arrange a rhythm of sessions that suits the client.
