John Funk, LCSW

John Funk is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Texas with 15 years of experience. He emphasizes clear, practical conversations about thoughts and everyday habits. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma, and mood concerns in straightforward sessions.

Sessions start with what feels most pressing. He creates an open space where people can talk through thoughts and feelings without judgment. That practical focus helps people notice patterns and try small changes that fit their daily life.

John blends several approaches to match each person's needs. He uses elements from attachment-focused work, client-centered listening, cognitive-behavioral strategies, and skills from DBT and emotionally-focused work. These tools support worry, low mood, relationship problems, and challenges like anger or grief.

His background includes long-term clinical practice across community and clinical settings. Over 15 years he has worked with people facing addictions, trauma, parenting stress, ADHD, and complicated grief. He aims to help people build routines and habits that support coping and emotional balance.

John practices in Texas and conducts sessions in English. He encourages people to take the first step and complete the intake steps to match with him. If you want help sorting daily habits, recurring thoughts, or relationship patterns, he offers straightforward guidance and collaborative planning.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on understanding how early relationship patterns influence current connections. It helps people notice how they relate to others and try new ways of connecting when old patterns cause pain or distance.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical techniques to test unhelpful thoughts and build new habits that reduce anxiety and low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with clients about goals and preferences and then choose or combine methods together. That collaborative decision makes it easier to pick tools that fit daily life and what the person hopes to change.

Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm the available options before booking. Many people find that online sessions make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy routine, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist about scheduling and what style of session will best fit your everyday needs.
