About me
Hello! Having raised 4 daughters and 2 sons, and having 14 grandchildren does not make me an expert on teens! But I have watched children grow through the most difficult time of life, and I tell all of my teenagers, that being a teenager is the toughest job in America. But it can be done successfully, as I see daily in my office, since about one half of my clients are teens and children. I receive weekly referrals from numerous pediatricians with whom I have worked with years and consult with them on client needs, both medically and emotionally.
Why would you share with me, a stranger who you have never met? Because everything you share is confidential; I won't be there at the family table, reunion or at the church service, with you wondering if I've told someone else in the room about your concerns. This is your room and you are in charge; together, we can find the solutions that I know are there. My role is not to criticize, lecture or impose on you my viewpoints. My role is to help you find what is best for you.
Hope to see you soon.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Curtis Spears. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.
My first session with Dr. Curtis was terrific, and it proved to me that he was the right person for the job to help me with this transition in my life.
He's the best, and I couldn't recommend him more.
Curtis has amazing insight and wisdom from his years of experience. He understood my situation and was able to advise and counsel me when I could hardly explain things myself. He provides a perfect balance between listening, guiding through questions, and giving helpful feedback and advise. Best therapist I’ve seen in years if not ever!!
Curtis is the best.
He is nonjudgmental and access to video sessions is good. I feel that my therapy has advanced and I see much broader views.
Has helped me through many difficult situations in my life and has been great guiding light for both personal growth and relationship recovery.
Simply the BEST!!!
Great therapist. Really believe he’s helped me come a long was in my self confidence and engaging my overthinking correctly. Just know that you’re not his only client and it takes time for him to respond. If you understand that you’ll truly enjoy his uplifting and kind nature.
Curtis listens well and offers workable measurable solutions. He doesn't brush over issues or just listen passively. I am very glad teencounseling.com connected me with him.
Great help for anxiety! He is a great listener and gives very good pointers for things you can take action on immediately to help.
Curtis has been of great help and makes both me and my partner feel seen and heard. Helping us find a way to navigate our relationship and our differences and difficulties.
Curtis listens and gives wise feedback. He has a multidisciplinary professional background that really enriches the quality of his counseling. His end of the conversation guides me to self-empowerment (it's not "about him"). Grateful to work with him.
Curtis is a good listener and gives relevant insights and suggestions.
Mr Curtis has been a tremendous help identifying, my personality trates, which has made me so much more confident in who I am. He immediately picked up that the reason I signed up for therapy was not even a problem I should have been concerned about n rather highlighted where to start in focusing on building my self esteem. I’m ever so grateful for his time and his assistance.
God bless
Curtís has been a wonderful help for our teen. She enjoys his advice and he is extremely patient as she learns to open up.
I can’t rave enough about how much his viewpoints and advice has helped me tackle some of the more difficult aspects of what I’ve been going through. Expressing myself has been my biggest challenge and talking with Curtis just made it easy and helped me understand myself.
From the first session until this last session, Curtis has been very easy to open up to. In the last few months I have taken all the tools he’s given and it’s helped me so much in my daily life even for the smallest things. He has helped me find inner peace. With this peace I can allow myself to heal, move forward and reach my life goals.
Curtis has been very kind to both my partner and I. We enjoy listening to his wisdom and his stories and he makes us feel less alone when it comes to feeling anxiety and doubts in relationships. I would definitely recommend Curtis to others.
He listens well, gives great encouragement, advice, and good strategies for success. I would recommend him to anyone. He is responsive and caring.

Honest, empathetic, patient, kind. Curtis is a pleasure to work with.
He listens and provides/shares first hand experiences
I enjoy working with Curtis because he listens carefully, addresses each topic I bring up, and uses real-life examples and references to support the needs I have. After each session he always sends me something to read or refer to, which I really like. I leave each session feeling joyful, having actions I can apply, and ready to move forward in the best way possible.

Curtis Spears is an incredible counselor! He listens to your concerns, addresses them, and makes you feel comfortable talking with him about them.

He has listened to all my problems and has been able to help me keep myself in the best mindset. I have no doubt that with his advice and my hard work. I will be able to live a healthier fuller life.
Curtis has been a light house in the middle of a very difficult storm. He has the capacity to listen compassionately and at the same time keep enough objectiveness to bring clarity, wisdom and guidance. His presence has been supportive and uplifting. It is wonderful when you find a professional that is not only full of wisdom and experience but also does his work with love and can also bring into it his most human dimension. Very grateful.
Counselor is great but the teencounseling.com reception is poor.
Curtis has been extremely helpful and kind.

I e no doubt he can help guide us to an exceptional and satisfying marriage…by helping us reset, rebuild and renew our current marriage relationship. We’re thankful,grateful and blessed to have been paired with him.
Curtis was very kind and open the first session. I didn’t feel coddled or like he was distracted. It was also amazing how flexible he is
