About Joey
Joey Ratcliff is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with three years of documented experience. He focuses on helping adults manage stress, anger, anxiety, and issues related to addiction and mood. Joey is direct and practical in sessions and aims to help people make changes that feel possible in daily life.
Joey favors short, clear conversations that identify what is causing the trouble now. He uses hands-on tools to manage strong emotions, reduce worry, and improve sleep.
Background and approach
Sessions often include exercises you can try between meetings to test what helps. When someone brings relationship or intimacy concerns, he works on communication and boundary skills. For people facing grief, trauma, or major life changes, Joey helps break problems down into manageable steps.
He also supports those dealing with ADHD, bipolar symptoms, and self-esteem struggles. Joey draws on client-centered work to prioritize each person’s goals. He pairs that with cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking patterns.
Mindfulness and solution-focused ideas are used to build coping strategies and practical next steps. People who want direct, problem-solving sessions tend to fit well with Joey’s style. He keeps language plain and focuses on what can change now.
He offers services in English and sees clients in Texas.

How Joey’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered work focuses on what matters most to the person in front of him. It puts the client's goals and perspective first and helps shape sessions around real-life priorities and values. This approach is useful when someone needs support in deciding next steps or needs a space to be heard.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Joey uses CBT techniques to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and to build concrete behavior changes that reduce anxiety, anger, and low mood. These are practical exercises that translate well to online sessions.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Joey will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that fit the person's lifestyle. Together they evaluate what works and adjust plans as progress unfolds.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video is useful when visual cues help the work. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be simpler to fit into a busy day. Live chat and text messaging can support brief check-ins and ongoing skill practice between longer meetings.
