(he/him)
I help men ages 24–50 in Texas who feel stuck or lack confidence navigate anxiety and depression through strengths-based, solution-focused online therapy. I’m Tory, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 20 years of experience in mental health and wellness, including over a decade in outpatient therapy. I work primarily with motivated men who want to build confidence, improve emotional balance, and create meaningful personal growth. My approach focuses on identifying strengths, shifting unhelpful self-perceptions, and developing practical strategies that support lasting change beyond the therapy session.
Our first session focuses on understanding what you want to change and what success would look like for you. We’ll clarify your goals, explore what’s been getting in the way, and begin outlining a practical direction for our work together so you leave with clarity and purpose.
My greatest strengths include curiosity, intuition, critical thinking, and the ability to notice patterns others may miss. I help clients challenge limiting self-beliefs and develop healthier, more empowering narratives that support confidence, emotional balance, and long-term growth.
I work best with individuals—primarily men ages 25–50—who feel stuck, struggle with confidence, or experience anxiety or depression, yet are motivated to grow. My ideal clients are curious, open to self-reflection, and willing to challenge negative self-perceptions. I provide online therapy to clients across the United States.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment
As a solutions focused therapist I help the people I work with become the best versions of themselves. In my experience people have been able to see change early in treatment and build on this change with intentionality to further such. This approach is what I consider to be "organic" and builds hope while moving towards your desired change. This approach is used to address a myriad of issues, as it focuses on your desired outcome.
Strength-Based
When we use a strength based approach the conversation takes a shift that builds hope and motivation for treatment. You no longer build a conversation around the problem, (although it is important) the conversation is centered around the best parts of your self that will be used with intention to create the change you want to see.

I was looking for an African American man that I could connect with. I have found that in Tory.

Tory pushed me to reframe my state of mind on certain topics and situation from how I may have originally seen it. He pushes me to think more outside of my normal processes and broaden my overall view of myself at different points in life.

Tory is an excellent counselor. Clear, direct, intelligent and really makes you feel like he has your best interest at heart.
