Binoy Thannikkodan KuriakoseLPC

Binoy Thannikkodan Kuriakose is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and addiction. He creates a calm space where clients can talk through worries about relationships, parenting, trauma, and life changes. He speaks English, Malayalam, and Tamil and brings eleven years of professional experience to sessions.

He focuses on practical steps people can use between meetings. He uses methods like cognitive behavioral work to identify unhelpful thoughts. He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness to help people notice and respond differently to strong emotions.

EMDR is part of his approach for clients who want to address past traumatic memories in a structured way. Client-centered techniques guide the pace and goals of each session so the person in therapy leads the process.

Binoy aims to reduce overwhelm and build steady coping skills. He helps people manage anger, intimacy issues, low self-esteem, and compassion fatigue. He also supports those dealing with attachment or abandonment concerns, autism-related challenges, and financial or veteran-related stress.

For anyone worried about starting, he acknowledges that the first step takes courage and frames the work as collaborative. Prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire to begin and then schedule sessions based on availability.

Therapeutic approaches and moving therapy online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, then commit to actions that match their values. It suits people coping with anxiety, life changes, or chronic stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches clear strategies to reduce unhelpful thinking and improve daily functioning. EMDR is used in a structured way to help people process traumatic memories that continue to cause distress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, past experiences, and what feels most comfortable. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as specific delivery options are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can spend more time on coping skills. It can also let someone choose audio-only meetings if video would be a barrier. The therapist will discuss what works best for scheduling, attention needs, and the nature of the concerns during the initial match and planning conversation.
