Curtis Spears

Curtis Spears is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and end-of-life issues. He brings 17 years of counseling experience and a calm, accepting presence to sessions.

He has worked in hospital psychiatric units, pediatric clinics, and employee assistance programs, which exposed him to many kinds of problems and people. That background helped him learn to listen across cultures and life stages. He is licensed as an LMHC and an LPC and practices from Louisiana while also serving clients in other states and overseas.

In session he keeps things straightforward and nonjudgmental. He focuses on listening first, then helping people find practical steps that fit their lives. He mixes goal-oriented tools with time to talk through feelings and relationships.

His approach draws on several methods, including acceptance and commitment work, client-centered listening, cognitive tools, emotionally focused conversations, and solution-focused planning. These methods are used to address a range of concerns from trauma and addiction to parenting stress and career questions.

Curtis is comfortable working with issues such as aging and geriatric concerns, hospice and end-of-life counseling, autism spectrum matters, blended family challenges, and compassion fatigue. He says scheduling is flexible and he often makes extra hours available when needed.

Approaches that guide online counseling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values. It can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with difficult life changes by teaching practical ways to stay connected to what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors and uses simple exercises to reduce symptoms and change patterns that keep problems alive. It often helps with anxiety, sleeping problems, and mood concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences and then recommend or combine methods that fit your needs. That decision is made together and can change as you progress.

The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel, allowing shorter check-ins, or accommodating morning or evening appointments. It also makes it simpler to keep therapy going when relocation or travel would otherwise interrupt care. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and emotionally focused conversations to remote settings so progress continues between meetings.
