Joey Ratcliff, LPC

Joey Ratcliff is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Texas with three years of experience under his current license. He focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy issues, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, bipolar concerns, and coping with life changes including ADHD. He conducts work in English and frames sessions around practical skills and problem solving.

Before his current practice period, he worked in outpatient settings with adults who had co-occurring mental health and substance use concerns. He has experience doing psychosocial assessments and creating treatment plans. His background includes undergraduate and graduate study in psychology, counselor education, and social work, and his path led him to practice in Texas after earlier work in Louisiana.

In sessions, he uses straightforward, structured methods that emphasize noticing unhelpful thoughts and changing behavior. Joey lists Cognitive Behavioral Therapy among his approaches alongside Client-Centered Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. He offers concrete tools to manage stress, anxiety, and anger and practical ways to plan next steps for life changes.

He has worked mainly in individual outpatient settings and has experience with people who have both mental health and addiction concerns. He lives and practices in Texas and speaks American English. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking a first appointment.

For someone seeking focused, skills-based work, Joey aims to help people identify patterns that keep problems going and try different responses. He uses brief, clear explanations and collaborative planning to move from problem identification toward manageable steps.
