Get back your happy, healthy teen.
DR. Johann d’Souza, Psychologist IN Houston
Looking for modern psychology with traditional values?
You shouldn’t have to choose between receiving the highest quality behavioral therapy and honoring your deepest values. Treatment does not always involve these values, but when it does, you want to work with someone you trust.
My mission is to build a network of practices across the US that offer science-based therapy always aligned with traditional values.
Let’s change the world by changing psychology, both professionally and ethically.
What it’s like to work with me
Hi, I’m Dr. Johann D’Souza, a certified psychologist with years of experience helping teens overcome anxiety and OCD. I believe you can transform any challenge in your life into an opportunity for unlimited growth. You just need the right tools and support.
In our work together, we’ll start by understanding your distracting thoughts and uncomfortable emotions and how they’re affecting your daily actions. Next, we’ll practice scientifically supported strategies that bring peace to your mind and calm to your heart as you build towards your goals.
As you gain momentum you will turn anxiety into excitement and distraction into focus, unlocking your fullest potential. Seeing yourself change, you may even become grateful for this stage of life as the starting point of a personal transformation that never ends.
MY GUIDING PRINCIPLES
Professional Excellence.
I use the best, scientifically supported, treatments available.
Dignity of Human Life.
Every person has infinite value, from conception to natural death and deserves unconditional love.
Created Male & Female.
Man and woman are naturally suited for marital unity and the upbringing of children. The lifelong fidelity between spouses enriches each spouse, nourishes their children, and strengthens society.
The Beauty of Chaste Love.
The power to create life is a great good to be cherished and protected throughout development so as to be used as an exclusive gift to one’s lifelong spouse. The marital act unites the spouses and naturally results in children.
TRAINING & EDUCATION
I’m committed to ongoing education & training to best support your family.
