Haven Counseling

What Haven Counseling does

Haven Counseling (legal entity Haven Counseling PLLC) is a privately-held, founder-owned counseling practice established in 2001 and headquartered at 2770 Main St, Suite 132, Frisco, Texas. The firm specializes in sexual addiction recovery, couples and marriage counseling, betrayal trauma recovery, and faith-based organizational consultation, serving individuals, couples, and church/nonprofit leadership councils. The client base is concentrated in the north Dallas metroplex (Plano, Allen, Addison, Prosper, Celina) and extended to all of Texas through virtual sessions.

The core service stack comprises four programs — Men's Issues Counseling, Couples & Marriage Counseling, Betrayal Recovery, and Church/Non-Profit Board Consultation — delivered by two licensed clinicians (Founder Larry Colclasure, MS/LPC/CSAT/AACC with EMDR and Brain Spotting training; Bruce Thomas, LPC-Associate/LMFT-Associate/CSAT-candidate/TBRI-certified) under the supervision of Dr. Sean Stokes. Therapeutic modalities are evidence-based and narrowly specialized: the Carnes/Lassar-derived CSAT protocol, EMDR, TBRI, Brain Spotting, and Prepare-Enrich/RelateStrong facilitation. Back-office technology is light: Vagaro and JaneApp handle scheduling, the site is HIPAA-compliant, and there are no proprietary software products, APIs, or AI/ML components.

The revenue model is straightforward professional services: 50-80 minute individual sessions, 80-minute couples sessions, recurring 1.5-2 hour therapeutic recovery groups running 1-3 years, and ad-hoc church consultation engagements. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; clients pay per session, with Good Faith Estimate forms provided. GTM is sales-led and direct-to-consumer — clients reach counselors via the website's "Choose Your Counselor" CTA, then schedule by phone, email, or self-serve booking portal. Marketing is multi-channel organic (TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn, X, Yelp) plus a blog authored by Bruce Thomas. There are no funding rounds, M&A activity, subsidiaries, or institutional investors in the record.
