Reviewed March 2025

Taking on a church staff position and still keeping my day job, my therapist gave me an opportunity to listen out loud to what was swirling around in my head. His Christian faith aligned with mine reassures me that we are on the same page when creating goals and problem solving. He asks the questions I need to answer or at least start thinking about and that has helped me navigate through the stresses of being bivocational.

More about Demetrius

  • 9 years' experience
  • Male
  • LMFT

As a licensed therapist in Texas, I specialize in supporting individuals through life's complex challenges. My approach centers on understanding the unique experiences of men, young adults, and those navigating significant life transitions. I bring compassionate expertise to areas including relationship dynamics, self-esteem, career development, and healing from challenging experiences.

My practice is deeply rooted in creating a supportive environment where clients can explore personal growth, address workplace challenges, and work through feelings of isolation, guilt, and shame. I have extensive experience supporting military veterans, first responders, and individuals managing multicultural concerns.

Drawing from a trauma-informed perspective, I help clients develop resilience, rediscover purpose, and build meaningful connections. Whether you're facing midlife transitions, relationship difficulties, or seeking personal healing, I'm committed to walking alongside you with respect, understanding, and professional guidance.

About online counseling

Affordable.

There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

How wonderful to speak to a therapist who understands being in ministry. Dr. Walton truly is a great counselor for anyone in full or part time ministry because he has first hand experience as a pastor. He offers a perspective full of experience, and ultimate wisdom from God's Word. I am so happy having a fellow co-laborer on Christ to talk issues with.

D. Walton is truly gifted in helping people. He knows the Word of God and shares relevant, helpful tools for life and advice for problems. He points to Jesus and the Word which is our TRUE guide, example, and help in this life. I praise God for him and what these services were able to get me through. Sometimes you just need someone to validate you and point you back to Jesus and remind you who and what is really important. Thank you.

I appreciated Demetrius's blend of professional therapy and religious counseling, able to provide meaningful input and worksheets along with tying some of the root causes of the problems to our faith. Probably not for everything but it was beneficial for me. He is good at listening and helping me reflect. He usually started our sessions by asking what I wanted to focus on. Sometimes I was hoping he would be able to pick the focus based on what I needed and not what I thought I needed.

He’s a wonderful therapist!

Finding a black male therapist has been a game changer. It’s hard to find a therapist that can fully grasp the struggles that many African American couples have to endure without having to explain them. We’ve only had 3 sessions so far, but they have been and will be life changing! Looking forward to our growth.
