Gary Norman, LICSW

"Gary Norman, LICSW, is a seasoned therapist with nearly three decades of experience supporting adults facing challenges related to anxiety, depression, substance use, trauma, and bipolar disorder. His approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness practices, and solution-focused strategies—always filtered through a trauma-informed and culturally aware lens. Gary emphasizes that while evidence-based practices are essential, the true heart of therapy lies in connection and trust. He believes that meaningful progress begins when clients feel genuinely cared for.

Gary’s clinical journey began in 1996 after earning his MSW from the University of Houston. He’s worked in a variety of mental health settings and is deeply committed to supporting underserved populations.
