Andrew Bienvenu, LPC-A:
Men's Counselor,
Couples Therapist, & Marriage Counselor
Hello! My name is Andrew Bienvenu, and I’m proud to welcome you to Katy Counseling for Men. Originally from Baton Rouge, Louisiana—home of the LSU Tigers—I bring with me the bold spirit of the South. Growing up, my family and I spent countless autumns together in the south section of Death Valley, passionately cheering for the Tigers.
Beyond football, my Southern upbringing instilled in me the core values of faith, family, and flavor (with a hefty dose of Tony Chachere’s seasoning on everything, of course).
​
My Professional Journey
My journey into therapy began in 2017 when I enrolled at LSU to earn a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology. While my family may have hoped I’d remain rooted in Baton Rouge, my drive for professional development led me to seek opportunities beyond my hometown.
This pursuit took me to Boston, Massachusetts, where I immersed myself in a prestigious medical and academic environment. There, I worked in a community mental health center and a local partial hospitalization program while earning my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. It was here that I discovered my passion for men’s mental health, focusing primarily on adult men.
​
After completing my studies, I had the opportunity to work at Mind Mechanics, a therapy practice dedicated exclusively to men's counseling. There, I engaged in impactful, long-term therapy tailored specifically for men, which fueled my mission to provide effective counseling. I am now proud to continue this journey at Katy Counseling for Men.

My Approach to Men's Counseling
Life can often feel overwhelming, making it hard to see the adventures that lie ahead. You might feel trapped. Life can often feel overwhelming, making it hard to see the adventures that lie ahead.
You might feel trapped by challenges such as depression, anxiety, social anxiety, panic attacks, lack of confidence, intense stress, or relationship issues. It’s common to muster the energy to take one step forward, only to feel like you’ve taken two steps back.
​
What if you could envision a life beyond these struggles?
​
The first step toward that brighter future is taking action, and if you’re reading this, you’re already on your way. I’m here to offer you a supportive environment where you can be heard and receive specialized counseling that meets your individual needs.
​
Feeling connected to your counselor is crucial in therapy. My primary goal is to forge a genuine connection with you, understanding your unique insights, strengths, values, and experiences.
As I listen, I strive to step into your world and grasp what it’s like to tackle your challenges head-on. Together, we’ll create a solid pathway forward to help you achieve your goals.
Throughout our journey, I’ll introduce you to valuable information and tools drawn from research-backed therapeutic approaches. Techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) are among those I’ve extensively trained in, and I’ve found them to be particularly effective for men.
​
And let’s not forget—what’s a journey without a bit of humor? Therapy can be heavy and demanding, but finding light moments along the way can provide relief and motivation.
