Ken Waldman, PhD
Texas Psychologist

Couples Counseling and Marriage Counseling

Dr. Ken Waldman currently offers videoconferencing sessions
Ken Waldman, Ph.D. is a licensed psychologist and a licensed marriage and family therapist practicing via videoconferencing.  He received his doctorate in counseling psychology in 1975 from the University of Texas at Austin.  He spent thirty-six years working in university counseling centers and semi-retired in 2009 as the director of the counseling center of the University of Houston.  He had a staff of psychologists, and they trained psychologists.  However, he has maintained a private practice since 1977, specializing in marriage or couples counseling and other adult relationship counseling.  He taught part-time at St. Mary’s University in San Antonio in their Marriage and Family Therapy Program.  Courses taught include Introduction to Marriage and Family Therapy and Separation, Divorce, and Remarriage.  He currently practices psychology in association with Chuck Gray, Ph.D. and Associates as does his wife of thirty years, Karen Waldman, Ph.D.  They have published together and are writing a book on marriage together, titled Worth Fighting For: Self-Help for Couples, which they hope to publish at the end of 2023.  He is a member of the Houston Psychological Association, Texas Psychological Association, American Psychological Association, and National Register of Health Service Providers.  He was featured in an article by the Texas Psychological Association.

He has experience working with a variety of concerns including infidelity, divorce, remarriage, step-parenting, addictions, anger management, depression, and anxiety.  His approach is eclectic involving diverse approaches using Gottman's research, Systems Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Rational Emotive Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Humanistic Therapy, and Rogerian Therapy.  His approach is often Psycho-educational.  He believes that most couples can improve their relationships by learning how to communicate with each other more effectively, resolve conflicts in a healthier way, and treat their partners like best friends instead of like enemies.  Not all marriages are worth saving, but he has had considerable success in working with couples when there is at least some desire to make things work.  Psychotherapy is generally not long-term.  Typically couples can make considerable improvement within five sessions.  Appointments are generally available within a week and are scheduled at flexible times including some evenings and Saturdays.
