THERAPY FOR MEN IN HOUSTON, TX
STRENGTH GOT YOU HERE.
LET’S USE IT TO GO FURTHER.
Action-oriented therapy for men who want to restore control, focus, and performance—without losing their edge.
Success is starting to cost you more than it should.
Stress is piling up at work, and you’re logging on after hours just to stay on track.
Your relationship or dating life is starting to show cracks. You're distant from your spouse, having trouble performing with partners, or avoiding sex altogether.
Your health is the one thing you still feel in control of, but it isn’t enough anymore. You've turned to secretive behaviors, such as gambling, porn, or behaviors you’d rather not explain, to manage the stress of work.
But the cost of hiding these behaviors is growing in time, risk, and energy. You already know it isn’t going away.
Every moment you wait to fix this only increases the risk to everything you've built.
But you can’t buy into therapy that asks you to be less of who you are.
Nor feel wrecked for days after a session.
You don’t have to make that choice here.

WHY MEN AVOID THERAPY
Most men wait until there is visible damage to their career, finances, or relationship before exploring therapy.
Most men feel like they’re expected to show up to therapy weak, broken, or lost—when they need to be the exact opposite to fix what’s happening.
You need a better approach to therapy.
One that knows the pressures you face, understands the unspoken rules of masculinity, and is built around your specific psychology and what truly drives you.
You don’t have time to talk in circles. You need a solution.
Meet Guy Felder
Specialist in Men’s Mental Health + Sexuality
Licensed Professional Counselor-Associate in Texas with expert supervision Dr. Scott Stanley, LPC-S.
With a prior career in corporate consulting and a specialty in men’s mental health and sexuality, I’ve designed an approach that restores strength, performance, and functionality first.
This allows you to take action and feel relief quickly. Once you’re starting to feel the pressure lift, we assess what’s needed to maintain the gains over the long term, so you don’t end up back in my office again.
I won’t ask you to slow down or become someone you’re not. But I will be direct in what I see is undermining you so that you can redirect your drive to where it counts.
My goal is to help you perform at the level you expect of yourself. Not just at work, but in every area of your life.
RESULTS MY CLIENTS SEE
Improved Work & Performance: Clearer decision-making, faster recovery from stress, and congruence between career and life goals
Better Relationships & Intimacy: Stronger, more honest relationships, better intimacy, and sexual performance
Greater Self-Control & Resilience: Control over compulsive behaviors, freedom from addiction, and a higher threshold for challenges

THERAPY FOR INDIVIDUALS AND COUPLES
For men who want a strategic therapist to create a direct path back to performance and confidence. We focus on what matters most and move at the pace your life demands.

HOW I WORK
Therapy is an investment of both time and money. It can take time to see changes and often things can be challenging before it gets better. The outline below provides a roadmap for how therapy may progress.
Principles of My Approach
🔶 STRATEGIC AND PRACTICAL
I’m here to help you focus on what’s actually getting in the way and how to address it. Work is structured, outcome-oriented, and grounded in your day-to-day reality. Talking is purposeful and focused.
🔶RISK AND CHANGE AS ALLIES
Many view change and risk as obstacles, but I see them as necessary conditions for growth and achievement. Instead of avoiding risk, we learn to leverage it as a source of momentum rather than hesitation.
🔶 SYSTEMS-LEVEL THINKING
Often, the same dynamics that show up at work appear in your personal life, or they interact predictably. We’ll identify leverage points where change will have the greatest impact with the least disruption.
🔶 FROM INSIGHT TO ACTION
Knowledge is important, but not enough. I guide your awareness towards clear decisions and steps to behavioral change, especially around avoidance, self-criticism, and patterns that repeat over time.
🔶 AGENCY AND ACCOUNTABILITY
Life often presents multiple options, where there is no clear, easy choice. My goal is to help you choose the one that aligns with your goals and build the capacity to follow through on it, even when it’s challenging.
HOW TO GET STARTED
Contact
You reach out and share where you're feeling successful and where you feel out of control. We clarify immediate goals and any constraints to consider in our approach.
Conceptualize
In the first few sessions, we assess what’s happening, map patterns, and establish a baseline to construct an approach that helps you regain direction and focus.
Commit
Once clear on priorities, you’ll take action on agreed-upon strategies. You won’t just talk about them in my office; you’ll apply them to your career, relationships, dating, and li
The longer you wait, the harder it becomes to get back to where you were.
I’m here to collaborate with you before the costs become too high. We’ll leverage your strengths to solve these challenges so you can restore drive and momentum to your work, relationships, and life.
I see clients in-person in the Houston Heights area and offer virtual appointments to all Texans.
Paying for Therapy
How I work with Insurance
I currently accept the following insurances:
I’ve partnered with Thrizer to help clients simplify the process of using your insurance benefits to pay for therapy. While I don’t accept insurance directly, many plans offer out-of-network benefits that cover some amount of your cost for therapy. This means you will pay only your copay or coinsurance at the time of session (less any deductibles). Thrizer handles the insurance claims or superbills for you. During your consultation or intake session I can help you check your benefits and estimate your out-of-pocket cost so you know what to expect.
Enter your information below to find out whether or not your health benefits will cover therapy with me.
Rates
For clients with Out of Network Benefits (PPOs, POS, Non-HMO)
Standard Session: $200
Couples Session: $265
Sessions last 40-50 minutes.
I offer a sliding scale fee structure to clients on a case-by-case basis. Sliding scale rates are reevaluated every 90-days and clients who receive services on a sliding scale must utilize Thrizer while receiving services on a sliding scale. We can discuss this more during a consultation call or during intake.
