About Gene
Gene Hauser is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 20 years of experience. He helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, ADHD, and other life changes. He aims to make therapy practical and down to earth so clients can use new skills right away.
He keeps sessions focused on what matters most to the client. Gene listens first and then helps people name their values and priorities.
Background and approach
He uses plain language and short-term goals so progress feels clear and reachable. Gene blends client-centered work with existential ideas and mindfulness. That means he centers the client's experience, helps people consider meaning and purpose, and introduces simple awareness practices.
He also uses motivational interviewing to build momentum for change when people feel stuck. His background includes two decades of counseling adults across a wide range of concerns. He has worked with people facing trauma, chronic pain and illness, workplace issues, and the challenges that come with midlife or major transitions.
He brings steady practical guidance and respect for each person's story. Sessions are available by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Gene uses those formats to help people fit therapy into busy lives and to keep the focus on concrete coping skills and clearer choices.
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Client-centered therapy places the client's experience at the heart of sessions. The therapist listens closely, reflects what matters, and helps people decide what changes they want to make. This approach is useful when someone needs steady support and help finding workable next steps.Existential therapy looks at meaning, values, and purpose. It helps people who feel lost, stuck in a life transition, or unsure about what matters next. Sessions invite reflection on choices and on living in ways that match personal values.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and current struggles, then suggest which methods to try. That collaboration makes it easier to adjust course if something isn't helping.
Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit a busy day or use less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging work well for brief check-ins, journaling between sessions, and for people who prefer writing over speaking. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
