About Mason

Mason (Trae) Sweatt is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with about 10 years of counseling experience. He combines a pastoral background with clinical practice to help people sort through stressful and painful life moments. Trae focuses on practical steps people can take now to feel steadier and move forward.

Before opening his counseling practice, he spent two decades working in churches. That experience shaped his approach to guiding people through change and hard conversations. He has worked with students, individuals, and couples in those roles and brings that perspective into therapy.

Trae commonly addresses concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, addiction, trauma and abuse, and parenting challenges. He also supports people dealing with career stress, compassion fatigue, and life transitions. Additional focus areas include codependency, communication problems, abandonment issues, and caregiving stress.

In sessions he uses straightforward, goal-oriented methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy, along with Trauma-Focused Therapy when past events are central to current struggles. Sessions typically involve identifying clear next steps, practicing new ways of thinking, and building coping skills that fit daily life.

People who choose Trae can expect a direct, practical style that values hope and personal responsibility. He helps clients name problems, set small goals, and practice changes between meetings.

How Trae’s approaches translate to online work

Trae uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes that can reduce anxiety and depression. CBT focuses on practical exercises and experiments that you can practice between sessions.

He also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to set concrete goals and identify strengths you can build on right away. This approach helps when someone wants short-term direction and clear next steps.

Trauma-Focused Therapy is used when past events affect current functioning; it emphasizes processing those memories in ways that reduce their daily impact and strengthen coping skills.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Trae will work with each person to figure out which methods match their goals, needs, and preferences. He adjusts plans over time based on what’s working and what isn't.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins, or letting someone join from a quieter spot when needed. Licensed professionals can use remote sessions to continue steady work on goals between in-person meetings.
