Dr. Robert Knapick, LMFT

I welcome you to my practice on how be happy and in control of your destiny through

solution-Focused therapy, which explores a myriad of answers/solutions to problems

brought up in our sessions. Happiness is learning how to take control of your life,

create and manage tools to help you through difficult times and events and the

development of goals that will help your reach your dreams in life.  As we complete the

first quarter of the 21st century we are faced with a world that has caused us to be

uncertain, fearful and hopeless. It is my hope that through therapy programs, books and

lectures help clients establish a new set of foundations and boundaries to help

them achieve success throughout the rest of your life. I work with individuals, families,

and relationships. I believe that clients can create solutions to conflicts. As a trained

and experienced therapist, I can help navigate sessions to help clients choose how to

resolve their issues that they struggle with. I believe that clients are responsible for their

own behaviors, thoughts, and feelings. As a counselor, I hope to promote client’s

greater self-awareness through evaluating and resolving their life experiences that lead

to increased confidence, self-esteem, independence, mental health, and the capacity to

effectively navigate the complex challenges of life.

I am passionate about helping adults and children find a healthy direction in life. I have

written 2 books on ways to help individuals and families learn how to be happy and

create a life of success. My 1 st book is “Choose to be Happy!” explores what causes a

person to be sad, both physical and mentally and what causes a person to be happy,

both physically and mentally. Through reading this book you will learn how to redirect

your brain and life in a positive direction that will turn sadness into happiness. Book 2

was “Parenting 101: How to raise a child to become a successful teenager.” This book

was inspired by my work with children at Texas Children’s Hospital Emergency Room.

Most of the children had mental health issues because they failed to have effective

copings skills to deal with conflicts and parents were lost when it came to disciplining

children in an effective manner. The book is divided into two parts: Part 1 is on parent

discipline techniques and Part 2 is on teaching children 10 effective coping skills to

allow children to deal with conflicts in a healthy manner. Both books are a sample of my

training, experience and knowledge in working with individuals who are need help to

boost their self-esteem.
