About Binoy
Binoy Thannikkodan Kuriakose is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with 11 years of clinical experience. He helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, family conflict, depression, anger, and related concerns. He speaks English, Malayalam, and Tamil. He encourages people to take the first step toward getting help and supports practical next steps.
In sessions he focuses on clear, down-to-earth conversation about what is worrying you. He listens to how problems show up day to day and helps people name patterns that keep them stuck. He uses methods that emphasize present moment skills, changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and addressing painful memories when needed.
His approach includes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral therapy, EMDR, and mindfulness-based work. Those tools are used to help with things like compulsive reactions, anxiety that interferes with life, relationship strain, and lingering effects of trauma. He aims to help people develop clearer goals and practical ways to handle triggers.
Binoy pays attention to both immediate coping skills and longer-term changes in behavior. He also addresses concerns that come up around parenting, intimacy, self-esteem, and impulse control. Sessions tend to focus on concrete steps and skills that can be practiced between meetings.
People who choose him can expect straightforward, respectful conversation about what is getting in the way of feeling more in control. He works with clients to identify small experiments and habits that reduce reactivity and improve daily functioning.
How sessions work
How therapy approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values, then taking small committed actions aligned with what matters. It helps with anger driven by avoidance or stuck patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and introduces practical skills to change reactions and reduce symptoms. Mindfulness approaches teach present-moment awareness and breathing or attention practices to reduce reactivity.Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they decide whether to emphasize skills work, memory processing, or mindful awareness as the priority for sessions.
This profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, shorten commutes, or avoid taking extra time off work. Some formats are better for brief check-ins or audio-only conversations, while others suit longer skills practice or EMDR-style work when agreed on. Practical scheduling and how sessions will run are clarified during the initial matching and intake steps.
