Sapient Philosophy
“When in doubt, be human.” – Glen Gabbard MD
Sapient means wise. Wisdom is foundational to our philosophy at Sapient. We are wise when there are good rational reasons for our life choices AND those reasonable choices feel right. We are emotional and we can be reasonable. We’re our best selves when we are both.
Sapient will help you find your best self. We’ll think through the struggles in your life. We’ll help you hear your emotions, get them under control, and then use them as your sixth sense. You will survive this crisis so that you can thrive.
No one comes into therapy to brag about how great things are going. We come into therapy because we just can’t stand our lives or our relationships as they are anymore. You’ve mustered a lot of courage, energy, and effort just to take this first step.
You’re unique. So your path to your happy life will be unique. We’ll find it together. Happy lives include the best physical, mental, spiritual and sexual health possible for each of us.
Sapient brings specialized knowledge and experience to your journey. You bring your self knowledge and a lifetime of experience. Together we’ll walk or maybe run your path to a better life.
We look forward to working with you so that you can have a rockstar relationship, a fulfilling sex life, and your unique happy life.

Sapient Story
Sapient’s founder Christopher Brown became a therapist because therapy changed his life for the better. It’s his hope that some knowledge, coaching, and maybe therapy will do the same for you.
Christopher was a business person before he was a therapist. His undergraduate degree is a BBA in organizational behavior. He went on to get an MBA, and his business career was mostly in his third generation family business. It desperately needed a family therapist and got one in Christopher. His love for people and desire to help them inspired him to become a psychotherapist.
Christopher Brown is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), a psychotherapist, and a sex therapist. He has a secular perspective. The Gottmans, Esther Perel, and the University of Michigan’s sexual health program all inform his style. He’s worked with hundreds of people, and was trained by some great psychotherapists. One of his professional commitments is that he’s always learning, and he’ll use everything he can get his hands on to help you.
Christopher has worked in psychiatric hospitals, residential treatment centers, and outpatient clinics. He has helped people with depression, Bipolar Disorder, anxiety, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, and Borderline Personality Disorder. He’s watched as clients have recovered and built happy lives. The work isn’t always easy but it’s always worth it.
Today his primary work is with people who want better relationships. Sapient provides education, coaching, and intensive therapy for people who want better relationships.

4203 Montrose, Suite 350, Houston, TX
No one comes to a therapist to brag about how great their life is going. We all come to therapy at one point or another because everything we could think to try on our own to make our lives happier hasn’t worked well enough. I was no different. Mine is a recovery story.
I provide psychotherapy and counseling a select group of clients. I’ve worked with people to solve specific problems. To marry or to divorce? Stay together or break-up? Have children or not? Open our relationship or not? For all these questions there’s also the question of how to we go forward once a decision is made. I help with that. Clients have come to understand themselves and even change themselves so they can be different in their current relationship or the next.
