Dr. Juan Barthelemy, LCSW, LICSW

Dr. Juan Barthelemy is a licensed clinical social worker who brings nine years of practice to his work in Texas. He focuses on relationship concerns alongside issues like addiction, anger, parenting stress, and mood problems. He approaches people with respect, sensitivity, and straightforward support. He tailors conversations and plans to each person's needs, so sessions focus on practical steps you can try between meetings. He helps people manage anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma-related reactions in everyday terms. For parenting or blended family strains he outlines small changes to test and adjust over time. When addiction or substance use is part of the picture, he uses direct, goal-oriented techniques to boost motivation and reduce risky behavior. For anger and intimacy-related struggles he works on clear communication and managing strong feelings without judgement. Work and career stress are handled with tools to prioritize and reframe pressures. He pays attention to cultural and multicultural concerns, including prejudice and discrimination, and brings that into treatment planning when it matters. Men’s issues, fatherhood challenges, and relationship infidelity are common topics he helps people talk through. He emphasizes collaborative decision making rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription. Dr. Barthelemy uses a mix of evidence-informed methods to help people find workable changes. He encourages small experiments that build confidence and practical progress over time. If you want a direct, respectful approach to relationship and life challenges, he aims to support each step forward.

How these approaches shape online therapy

Dr. Barthelemy uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy in ways that are easy to understand. CBT looks at unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change them, useful for anxiety, depression, and mood problems. Motivational Interviewing helps people find and strengthen their own reasons to change, which is often helpful with addictions and substance use. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, concrete steps and what works now, which can speed progress on relationship and parenting concerns. Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. He will ask about your goals, priorities, and what has or hasn’t helped before, and then suggest methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as you go. Session logistics should fit ordinary life. Confirm which session formats are available before booking, since the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can help people fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow brief check-ins when needed, and make it easier to keep progress between sessions. It also supports working on real-time communication and between-session practice that relate directly to relationship and family challenges.
