Howdy!
My name is Christopher Boule, but my clients usually call me Mr. Chris! I am the founder and therapist at Constellation Counseling and Consulting, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Supervisor (LPC-S). We are excited to begin this journey with your family.
Meet Chris
I graduated from Texas A&M in 2006 (WHOOP!), and got my Master’s in counseling at University of Houston-Clear Lake in 2011. With more than 15 years of professional experience, I have a passion for helping kids, parents and families find their best selves. I have worked in residential treatment facilities for children with high emotional needs as well as multiple disabilities. I have also worked as a student support counselor in a charter school district and a school-based counselor for two public school districts in the Houston area. I have worked with several community agencies providing free services to children from all backgrounds. Finally, I am here at Constellation Counseling and Consulting, pulling together all of these experiences to provide the best support possible to children and families.
All of my experience centers on children, adolescents, and families. I just like kids! I love getting to meet new clients where they are and learn how they think and see the world. Over the years, I have gained specific training in providing services to young people with a history of trauma (including Trauma-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Grief Component Therapy for Adolescents). More recently, I have wanted to broaden my services to include the youngest children through Play Therapy. I have received extensive training in play therapy, and I am actively working toward becoming a Registered Play Therapist (RPT). It is so exciting to bring mental health services to this uniquely vulnerable (and fun!) population. Whether I’m sitting on the floor with a child in a play therapy session or guiding a teen building healthy coping skills, my goal is always to create a safe, empowering space where growth and healing can happen.
I have experience with children and teens with ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, Psychosis, Self-injurious behaviors, LGBTQ+, Autism, and Developmental Disabilities. Beyond the labels, I have talked to clients experiencing isolation, disability, bullying, thoughts of suicide, abuse, divorce, removal from families, reunification with families, difficulty making friends, sleep problems and nightmares, school stressors, medical diagnoses, fears of all kinds, and so much more. In my personal life, I have been married for 17 years and have 6 children, 5 of whom joined our family through adoption (through the CPS system). I have multiple children with diagnoses and disabilities, which has given me an intimate understanding of what families experience. Because of this, I have a unique interest in including young people experiencing foster care and adoption as well as disability in the scope of my work. I look forward to seeing how I can best serve your child and family!
Meet Shanice
Shanice Blair, MS, LPC-Associate
Hello, I’m Shanice Blair, a Licensed Professional Counselor- Associate under the clinical supervision of Christopher Boule in Texas! I graduated from The University of Iowa in 2015 (Go Hawks!), and got my Master’s in counseling from Walden University in 2021. Since graduating from my undergrad, I have worked in various areas supporting individuals, families, couples, and community mental health. My experience as a direct support professional in residential treatment centers, case manager, community health program coordinator, and therapist in schools, has allowed me to see how there are many layers and factors influencing someone’s well-being.
I specialize in serving youth dealing with anxiety, low self-esteem, school challenges, depression, trauma, and other difficulties experienced with growing up. I also love working with adults, providing support for couples, those surviving domestic abuse, chronic illness, healing from their past, and various other challenges. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral, Strengths-Based, Person-Centered, Family, and Play Therapy strategies to help those I work with in recognizing their strengths, better understanding how their thoughts, feelings, and actions influence each other, strengthen relationships, and better understand themselves and communicate their needs.
When I’m not at my day job as a therapist in a public school for a community non-profit, I am involved in community boards and groups like Ctrl+Create, Groundswell, Marmo Youth Program Committee, American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, and the Sandpiper Community Development Coalition. These are all different entities with their own missions, but all similar in that they support improving the health and well-being of my community’s youth and families, something I am very passionate about. Otherwise, I love my dog Denver, traveling, reading, and eating oysters. I can't wait to support you and your family in becoming your best selves!
