I\u2019m a Houston native, husband, father, and counselor-in-training who genuinely enjoys getting to know people and hearing their stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I attended St. Pius X High School and later graduated from Sam Houston State University, where I earned degrees in Psychology and Criminal Justice. I\u2019m currently continuing my education at Southern New Hampshire University, where I\u2019m pursuing my graduate degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Outside of school and counseling, my family is a huge part of who I am. I\u2019m married and a proud dad, and we have two dogs who are definitely considered part of the family. When I have some free time, you\u2019ll probably find me watching or talking about sports, playing games, getting lost in some kind of nerdy hobby, or spending time with my family. I\u2019ve always been a bit of a nerd, and I think that curiosity has helped me appreciate how different and interesting every person\u2019s story can be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a counselor-in-training, my goal is to create a space where people can feel comfortable being themselves without fear of judgment. I believe counseling is about meeting people where they are, listening to understand rather than simply respond, and working together to find a path forward. I don\u2019t believe anyone has to have everything figured out before asking for help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019m grateful for the opportunity to continue learning, growing, and developing as a counselor, and I look forward to getting to know the people I have the privilege of working with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"h-ready-to-book-your-online-session-with-rafael\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-fe48e5de wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/districtcounseling.clientsecure.me\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Request an Appointment<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-fe48e5de wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"tel:+13468007601\">Call Today (346) 800-7601<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Houston counselor-in-training John provides a welcoming, judgment-free space to support clients through their mental health and personal growth journey.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":70291,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false,"wds_primary_portfolio-category":0,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-70289","x-portfolio","type-x-portfolio","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio-category-counselor-in-training","portfolio-category-cypress","portfolio-category-english","portfolio-category-telehealth","portfolio-category-texas","x-portfolio-66767ebdd96fcaccba9133c0e60db675","x-portfolio-719ffbccd1f60fabb76192606929585c","x-portfolio-ba0a6ddd94c73698a3658f92ac222f8a","x-portfolio-38f94da556d3c303deb0aa46c95b887d","x-portfolio-3e194b5730ed8b868224b80ac8d7eed9"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.1 (Yoast SEO v28.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>John Salvaggio &#8226;
