Ricardo Alvarez, Kellie Lomas and Denise Laird see couples here. On the short form, choose “Me and my partner” and we tell you who has an opening before anything is booked.
If only one of you is ready
Any counselor at this office can start with one of you on your own. If your partner wants to join later, couples sessions can be added then.

Questions about couples counseling in The Woodlands
Do you offer marriage counseling in The Woodlands?
Yes. At our Sawdust Road office, Ricardo Alvarez, Kellie Lomas and Denise Laird see couples, married or not.
How do we book as a couple?
Fill in the short form and choose “Me and my partner”. We suggest a counselor here who sees couples and tell you the estimated cost before anything is booked.
Each of you gets your own intake paperwork, sent to your own phone or email.
Can we have couples sessions by video?
Yes, by secure video, as long as you are both in Texas for the session. Say so on the form and we will set it up.
How soon can we start?
Couples are seen within the week. You get the time and the estimated cost before anything is booked.
Is this the closest office if we live in Spring?
From Old Town Spring, usually: our office is about 7 miles up I-45. From the Champion Forest side, our Houston-Willowbrook office on Haynes Road is closer, and Cathryn Birden and Christopher Walker see couples there.
See counseling for Spring, TX for drive times.
What if one of us does not feel safe at home?
Then couples counseling is not the place to start. Call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233 or text START to 88788, any time.
Individual counseling here is still open to you, on your own.
What if the counselor is not the right fit?
If the fit is wrong, tell us and we will match you with a different counselor. Your first session with them is free.
The Reset is about fit only, not a promise about results.
