About Kelvin

Kelvin Tung is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with five years of experience across outpatient programs, hospital settings, and substance abuse treatment centers.

Background and approach

He brings that varied clinical background to sessions, helping clients navigate concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, addictions, self-esteem, anger, career challenges, bipolar disorder, and life transitions. His work often addresses related issues like control and commitment difficulties, communication problems, immigration concerns, and workplace stress.

His style is relaxed and approachable, grounded in humanistic, client-centered principles that prioritize each person's strengths and capacity for growth. He blends techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused strategies to tailor interventions to the situation at hand.

Kelvin aims to create a supportive space where clients can explore feelings, clarify goals, and develop practical coping strategies. Sessions emphasize collaboration and respect for the client’s perspective, with the therapist serving as a guide rather than an authority.

He communicates in English, Mandarin, and Cantonese and offers multiple session formats to increase accessibility for people living in Texas.

Practical Approaches for Online Work and Skill Building



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and many everyday difficulties by teaching concrete skills for managing thoughts and reactions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and supporting a person’s own capacity for growth; it helps clients feel heard and understood while they explore values and goals together.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Kelvin works with clients to assess their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring, then combines techniques from different approaches when that seems helpful. Over time the plan can be adjusted so the methods used match what is most effective for the individual.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for busy schedules and varying comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain consistent work on goals without travel, and they allow different formats for skills practice, check-ins, and ongoing support.
