Mark Crowe , LPC

Mark Crowe is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 18 years of experience in the mental health field. He operates a private practice in the Greater Houston area and brings a background that includes work with child protective services and many years as a high school counselor. That combination of settings has given him broad experience supporting young adults, parents, families, and couples through challenges such as depression, anxiety, grief and loss, parenting concerns, relationship and marriage difficulties, family conflict, and addictions.

Having been in counseling as a child within his own family, he understands the courage it can take to seek help and the mixed experiences people can have with therapy. Those personal and professional perspectives shape a relaxed, down-to-earth approach designed to make sessions feel natural and approachable. He prioritizes building a comfortable working relationship and creating a practical plan to address the sources of stress, pain, and discomfort in a person or family’s life.

Mark values the counseling relationship and has been described by former and current clients as passionate, responsive, and caring. He also notes that, due to his personal work schedule, he is only available Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons and is not currently accepting clients. He provides services in English and holds the LPC credential in Texas as TX LPC 65624.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Flexible Online Care

Mark Crowe employs evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skill building to reduce symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning. These skills-focused interventions teach emotion regulation, coping strategies, and problem-solving tools that are useful for concerns like anxiety, depression, and stress. He also integrates family-centered work that draws on his experience with parents, couples, and family systems to address relationship dynamics, parenting challenges, and conflict resolution.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. He collaborates with each person to identify goals and preferences, then tailors techniques to fit those needs so therapy feels relevant and effective. The therapist and client work together to monitor progress and adjust methods as appropriate.

Online therapy formats - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - offer flexibility for busy schedules and make it easier to maintain continuity of care. These options support access across different routines and life stages, allowing licensed professionals to provide consistent support for coping with life changes, grief, addiction recovery, parenting concerns, and relationship issues.
